for everything else, there's Mastercard! I have never seen a car detail shop of this quality anywhere! I own several cars and drive them hard; and most recently my Porsche Cayenne was left outside with mineralized water on it for weeks. The sun baked the hard water spots into my black paint and faded the factory finish. My 2006 Cayenne Turbo now looked like a 1996 Toyota 4-Runner! The dealer told me that I'd need the body shop to paint the hood and use rubbing compound on the rest of it! By the way, this is on a car with 8000 miles! \r
My friend Alfred mentioned his Mercedes 500 SL had a detail and that the place did an amazing job; and, I know for a fact that Alfred eats his breakfast (normally a sloppy breakfast burrito that his maid hands him on his way out the door) while he drives to work. And, well, his creme leather interior suffers from hot sauce and grease splatters as his big gut gets refueled by huevos and tabasco! \r
When he showed me his car after it spent the good part of Saturday in The Detail Factory, you would have thought that it just came off the showroom floor. The 500 SL smelled new, looked new, and the leather felt new. \r
So, I took my Cayenne in on Monday and this guy named Ray looked at me when I handed over the keys like the job was going to be a walk in the park. I begged him not to use any harsh compounds or anything on my new (even though it looked old) Cayenne.\r
When I came back in the early afternoon, Ray was sitting at his desk sipping a can of Rockstar with a big smile on his face. As I looked over to the showroom clean line up of cars, I saw a black Cayenne that I only wished was mine. I asked him when my car would be ready and he pointed to that very same Cayenne. I almost fainted! The car looked BRAND NEW! I tipped these guys like nobody's business, jumped in my car, called my girlfriend, cranked up the music and drove down the Embarcadero singing Frank Sinatra songs at the top of my lungs as I headed across the Golden Gate bridge.
Pros: The ability to clean and polish the impossible!
Cons: NONE!
