    Black Step-side Chevy By Mixon Custom Detailing.

    I started my mobile detail business March 01 2013, I sent a post out over facebook with great success. The word of mouth is the best advertising you could ask for plus it's free. I have returned back to full duty to the fire station after 3 months recoverying from rotator surgery. One of the worst surgeries you could ask for.

    Here is one of my first cars I have done since starting my business.



    Before she needed some TLC.







    Here is the after shots, All work was done with a Flex 3401 and PC. One step Compound and Sealent topped with a long lasting LSP. The wheels were pitted so bad that it was through the chrome so I just lightly polished and explained to the customer why I could not correct the wheels.










    Thank you for looking.

    Nice work!

    How did you damage the rotator lifting weights/gym? I've been lifting about a year and a torn rotator is one of my biggest fear in the gym. How dose working with the flex feel during recovery?

    I tore it cutting a tree, I was useing a 3 to 1 block and tackle to lift a 40 foot extention ladder into place, one little slip and the rope caught me under my under arm and hyperextended it. I was useing the flex a month after surgery which I didn't tell my doctors but it's doing great I'm about 80% now.

    LOL!!!

    I can honestly tell you that you were playing with matches in a room full of gas cans. From professional experience, the 2nd surgery is not as successful as the first. 1 month post-op was definitely playing Russian roulette..... and you won! Most often, we turn a blind eye after 6-8 weeks (depending on clinical presentation, type of repair, and based on functional return at that point)
