DTailed AutoSpa LLC

Hello again folks. The time has come. As previously mentioned in August, I have moved all of my possessions home from my shop.

It is at this time that due to a number of factors, I choose to announce that I will be placing DTailed AutoSpa on the back burner as I focus on other facets of my life and my career.

There truly do not exist words to show how grateful I am to the countless people that have supported me, both directly and indirectly in this incredible journey, most from the start in my year of mobile detailing out of my Odyssey.

I have learned so much, not just about detailing, but the ins and outs of owning and running a business, interacting with people, building a brand and website, and all the other minute details that had to come together to make this venture as successful as it was.

This experience will surely go on to serve me through the rest of my life.

“But Derek, I really wanted you to work on my car!” I will still find time to take the odd client car here and there, it will just be in my home garage sometime between April and October, so worry not if you’re still after some of the DTailed Secret Sauce, it’s not going away forever. I may find another shop space in the future, but for now, I have chosen to keep it compact.

Please enjoy a gallery of just a handful of the cars I’ve worked on over the past couple years while I had my shop.

Thank you all for your business, so very much.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

Hey folks, sucks to say, but unfortunately the business that I share my shop space with will be moving on to a building that better suits their needs. I certainly can’t afford $15K of rent on my own, so I will be returning to my roots for a while and doing vehicles out of my garage for the foreseeable future, at least until Spring when I can figure out what I’m doing for a shop space.

THAT SAID, if you have a full size truck, SUV, or large crossover, there’s a good chance that it will not fit in my short garage door. If you’ve been holding on getting your larger vehicle corrected and coated, now is the time. I anticipate that within one to two months, I will need to move back into my garage, so any large vehicles will need to be knocked out before then.

Thanks in advance for your understanding, and as always, your continued support.

Quick cleanup for my pals over at Patience Metal Fab on this heavily modified C10.

They take customer satisfaction seriously, so they had me give this unit a good wash before returning it to their client after doing some fab work on it.

Always gotta be careful with clean black paint!

The owner of this handsome BMW M550i was about ready to trade it in due to just how used it looked. Years of dealership wash damage, parking lot bumps and scrapes, and swirls of all kinds had this thing looking tired at only five years old.

Luckily he brought it to me to bring it back from the brink. After a serious decontamination process, some VERY heavy handed paint correction sliced through the severe defects in the thrashed black paint and revealed gobs of gorgeous flake in the paint that now throws sun like crazy! Some touch up paint work was then done to help hide some of the more severe scrapes and gouges.

After the correction work was done, the finish was locked in with a heaping helping of Gyeon Infinite Type 2, our highest end ceramic coating. This will help the owner keep up on maintenance and the car looking brand new.

This car turned out awesome, the owner was thrilled, and he's planning on keeping it now.
