    Glass cleaning help please...

    As some of you may know, the wife and I just got a new 2012 Ford Edge. We literally got it last wednesday night, took it on a road trip this past weekend and I was able to give it a quick wash on Sunday to knock the bugs off. It's obvious I need to clay the whole thing and polish as the finish...

    How often to replace wash mitts...

    Guys and gals...how often do you replace your wash mitts? I've got a few Meguiar's wool-ish type mitts left that I've been using for some time (4 years or so probably) and I found out that they were introducing an immense amount of swirls. I've now pitched them all. Because they were old, I...

    Spring detail of my '92 GMC Sierra...

    It's been a little while since I've posted any new pics. Even though we had an early spring, I've been so busy I've not had a chance to spring detail my truck...but this past weekend my wife was gone and I had 2 solid days of nothing but polishing and shining on her (the truck...hehe). She got...

    Opinions on a new T-shirt design...

    It's been a while since I've posted on here. My side biz has kept me slammed beyond belief lately. Not sure where all the work is coming from, but I'm gonna take it while I can. I'll try to share some of the latest work I've been doing soon. Well...I still have bunches of my TMoore 'truck'...

    Any newer Ford Edge/Explorer owners? Looking to buy one...

    Here's the deal. My wife and I bought a Mercury Mariner back in 2006 and we love it. Problem is, my wife has a second job now and it's requiring her to do a lot of highway driving/traveling around the Missouri/Illinois area. So we're considering a new Ford Edge or Explorer. We want something...

    Car dollies...

    Anyone know where I can find some of these? I found these at O-Reilly's auto parts (chain store), AC Delco brand for around $120. Griots Garage has some for just over $220.00...not sure if the extra $100.00 is worth it. Summit racing also has some for around $150.00. If anyone has any...

    Long overdue website updates...

    It's been far too long since I've had my web guy update my site, so I finally got off my arse and made some updates. Added some new artwork on each page, really expanded the merchandise section, and also changed the logo on each page to my more refined 'signature' style. The old one was a stiff...

    Bought me a new polisher this weekend...

    I set out to 'winterize' my truck this saturday, started to polish the hood and noticed some yellow bits flying around. Stopped the polisher to find my original backing plate had started to separate. My PC's 5 years old, and has been trouble free thus far so I can't complain. I've put it through...

    Finally...the bumper and grill are painted...

    I installed this bumper back in May and figured I'd have it painted in a few weeks. Then, weekend after weekend we just had so much going that it never got done. I was sick of driving it in primer and all mismatched. Finally got some time this weekend to get it all painted and installed. All...

    Got some new ink...

    My brother and I both have some tats and we had been buggin' dad to get one. Well, my bro got a Rat Fink over a year ago and my dad finally caved and agreed to get one. He liked the rat fink so he got the same thing on the same place as my bro, so I got the same one after being back up in Indy...

    It's been a while since I've showed my face around these parts...

    Hey everyone. It's been a while since I've posted...been lurking a bit here and there, but that's about it. Things have been pretty busy for me lately between my side biz and my day job. And with this heat, I haven't been spending as much time on the cars as I'd like. Thought I'd post up a few...

    Mazda Tribute detail...

    I've done 3 details recently, however I got some great 'before' shots of the first 2 but ran out of time to get any 'afters'. So on this last one, I took a few before's of the exterior and for whatever reason, I forgot to get any of the interior. It wasn't really too bad, just riddled with dirt...

    My black Mariner's first detail in 2011...

    I think I last detailed this car in spring of last year. I'm usually pretty good about polishing and waxing every 6 months, but this past fall was so busy I just couldn't find the time. Needless to say, she was way overdue and the Natty's from last year was just barely holding on...hehe. I gave...

    Spring detail of my 92 GMC...

    I'm so glad that warmer weather is getting here. It's been a while since my baby has seen any TLC...in fact I think it was around Sept/Oct of 2010 when she last got polished. I changed back to my 'summer wheels' a few weeks ago and finally got a good solid day to polish on her. Since buying...

    I have the power to make it snow...

    It's true. I have the ability to make it snow. All I had to do was put my "summer wheels" on both of my vehicles and it's now snowed 3 times in the last two weeks! Luckily, I haven't gotten time to do a thorough 'detail' on them yet, but in the coming weeks I will be for sure. Both cars are due...

    My 2010 Holiday Card...

    As many of you know, I do my own holiday card every year for all of my customers. Well, I saw a sweet blue 55 chevy at the Goodguys show back in September and it inspired me to create this little number... I hope you all dig it and hopefully my clients will to. Any thoughts or suggestions...

    Something fun I thought I'd share...

    I'm a member of the motorburg forums which is a forum for car artists...even some big named guys in the industry, many of which are my idols...hehe. Anyway, Motorburg is setting up a booth at the Kentucky Street Rod Nationals to showcase various car artists' work so we were asked to create our...

    Got some new tires/wheels...Torq-Thrust D's...

    Well, the big moment came last night...I got my new wheels. 15x7 and 15x8.5" Torq-Thrust D's. Went with 245/60-15's up front and 275/60-15's out back. I really like them except for the fact that they rub like hell in the back. I cut the heck out of the tires trying to get home so tonight I'm...

    Painted the frame on my 92 GMC C1500...

    I had some time off work this past week so I set out to clean up and paint the frame on my truck. The body is in great shape after a thorough detailing earlier this spring, but the undercarriage was in need of some TLC. I removed the wheels, scuffed the frame/suspension and gave her several...
