A little history on how
and why Advanced Detailing came about. As a teen growing up thousands of
miles away from the American car culture, I was hoping the day would come
when i could be part of that culture. I would read countless magazines, dreaming
about owning or just being around these beautiful machines one day. At the
age of 18 I came to the U.S to attend college , shortly thereafter buying
my very first car, a '69 Dodge Charger. The journey had begun.
I knew i wanted to be involved
in the automotive industry but not wanting to be a mechanic, that part was
to remain a hobby. I went to engineering school, changing majors during my
junior year. |
| I started school
to become a Dental technician, during the first day when given a task to
asses everyone's skill level I was asked if I had a background in art, which
i didn't. The instructor thought I had exceptional skills with my hands,
a good sign for my future endeavors. |
| After more than
a decade of working in the dental field, part of that while owning my own
Lab, I performed all the work under the scrutiny of a 10X microscope, learning
and perfecting my skills to make everything perfect within 1/10 of a millimeter.
I became accustomed to and expected nothing less than to to perform my work
to perfection within the smallest margins. The day came that I knew I had
to make the transition to be involved in the automotive industry and I took
that leap, selling my dental lab and starting my detailing business. |
| Being in South
Florida, where it seems that there is a " detailing center" on every street
corner, I knew I wanted to perform work of a much higher standard. I took
the work ethic that I became accustomed to and applied it to the detailing
skills while continually learning new techniques and constantly keeping up
with the latest developments in products.
From removing the paint defects
often found on today's exotics to bringing back the original lustre on old
muscle cars, I have earned the trust and respect of many car collectors and
enthusiasts.
My work has been commissioned
to be performed on garage queens, to show cars to be sold at Barrett -Jackson
, to well cared for daily drivers. |

accumulated considerable experience over the many years of detailing , it
is my passion for what I do that constantly pushes me to become better and
to deliver even better results. |
