Thumbs up Any detailing projects for this holiday season?

Happy Holiday's to all, hoping this year has brought plenty of happiness and good health to everyone. I hope that all of your Thanksgiving's were well spent with family, friends and the love and warmth was felt.

This year has been a real fast one, it seems like they just keep flying by faster every year. So many new innovations in the car care industry as well, it seems like it's on fire......with new products being released faster than ever.

Talking about on fire.....Jaguar is on fire!!!

The whole new line is more aggressive and better looking than ever and it looks like market share is in their future. I plan on attending the LA Auto Show this week and Jaguar is calling for me to check them out....promise to post some pics!

As for detailing projects this holiday season, how many of you have something planned.......would love to hear about your projects, need some advise or help...feel free to ask or reach out!

Have any detailing or car care questions please feel free to ask...


Happy Holiday's from Innovative Detailing everyone!

I have ?'s. I bought Connally leather kit. The cleaner has ammonia in it according to the label. Although you are to dilute, with my car only 5 months old, should I use this to clean the leather or just a damp cloth? Should this be just used on steering wheel seats, etc. where hands and most soil may occur. With the Connally cleaner or conditioner harm the light colored stitching?

Thank you.

Seasons Greetings to you and yours David.

I will fess up and mention that Joyces Jag and my dd is penciled in for the Holidays. I will have a house full of women here...my 89 year old mother (vacationing for 2 weeks from Ohio), sister from Fl., MIL, SIL, wife and 3 little girls! So there will be some much needed holiday cheer(s) time in the man cave.

Although I can only dream of doing a paint correction to our vehicles, they will get a swirl removal (I may try my hand at the clay bar first) and a wax. I am hoping to steam the carpets as well, especially since my dd is our station wagon.

I will ask though as this has been on my mind for quite sometime. Have you ever thought of putting together a DIYer kit for us amatuers? Maybe 2 kits, with and without a random orbital buffer, the different foam pads, buffer pads, prep conditioners, waxes etc?

I miss your write ups in this section, btw!

Happy Holidays
