IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR “PROFESSIONAL QUALITY DETAILING”
with extreme "Attention to Detail" =
Professional Detail packages listed below (call for pricing)
I
WILL MATCH ANY OTHER OAHU
that
can provide the equivalent professional quality work that I perform.
Aloha, I’m Dave Knox,
I
am the Owner and Operator of this company and the only one
that will ever touch your vehicle. 100% satisfaction guaranteed.
I am retired US Navy and have been
Detailing on
I am licensed, insured and certified
through the Rightlook Auto Detailing & Reconditioning training center out
of
Given the opportunity,
I will bring that “NEW CAR” look with hi-end protection back to your vehicle. I take a
lot of pride in the work I do and will not sell you a service that you do not
need. My customers are my reputation, that simple!
Experience and Pro-Training have taught me three main objectives;
1. Inspect and evaluate to make recommendations that are best suited for the condition of my client’s vehicle/s.
2. Safe and effective washing, cleaning, conditioning, polishing and restoration technique.
3. The most important, lasting protection
with the best professional products in the Auto, Motorcycle, Boat and Aircraft
Detailing Industry.
A standout appearance with a shine that
shows depth and looks wet especially in darker colors and protection that lasts 5 months to
a year when properly maintained. This is
all accomplished by professional detailing procedures through training,
knowledge, 19 years experience and hi-end detailing tools and products that
work!
* If you are still looking for that wax
or sealant that lasts 2 to 5 years, you will find it on the same shelf with
"color matched wax " that hide scratches and “Teflon-Enforced-Wax”!!! Do a little research, it’s absolutely false along
with other advertising statements that sound to good to be true.
* When you hear the word “waterless”,
RUN! ..With the exception, if you have a “cash for clunkers” car and use “sham-wow”
towels for drying. Just my opinion.
Detail Packages
I
won’t confuse you with 6 to 8 different packages, “express wash
and shine’s”, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Titanium, Iridium, Plutonium, and Diamond
Detail packages
and other added costs like “sealant upgrade”, carpet and mats shampooed
but “seats
or leather are extra”. What you see in my written packages
is what you get, it’s
all included. And your vehicle will get 100% of my attention.
I never
schedule more than one vehicle per day so I don’t need to rush to get to the
next one!
I HAVE THREE DETAIL
PACKAGES:
# 1. Complete Exterior Detail. That includes wipe down and vacuuming of
all interior and trunk: Approximatly 3 hours for compacts.
# 2. Complete Interior Detail: Approximately 3 hours for compacts.
# 3. Complete Exterior & Interior Detail. Approximately 6 hours Combining the two saves you money (amount depending on vehicle size):
The size of your vehicle
will determine the price
Some cases of extra dirty interior or
paint damage will cost more.
I also have specialty and customizing services
listed at the bottom.
Prep-Wash; A Pro Service Wash & Wax includes
proper hand washing technique starting with the wheels,
tires and wheel wells. Once the wheels have been thoroughly cleaned the vehicle
is then washed with Meguiar’s Gold
Class Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner using a microfiber
wash mitt. You’re vehicle will be properly washed using the “double bucket wash
- rinse procedure” from the top down with water changed out half way through to
eliminate any micro scratching. The vehicle is then towel dried with micro
fiber waffle towels fallowed by compressed air to blow out all water from
mirrors, handles, moldings, emblems, grill, bumpers, rim lugs etc.
I
also leave you with a micro fiber towel for in rare cases you
find a smudge.
As with all packages, I go over
everything that was completed and bring up any problem areas that are
not
always recognizable at pre-inspection.
When choosing a Professional Detailer
Please understand that there is a big
difference between a quick “wash and shine/mini/express detail” with “express
products” and a full/complete professional Detail with top name products that
are proven among the best in our industry. Product protection and effectiveness
are not created equally! In most cases, a good analogy of what you are
going to get in your Detail is reflected in the price you are paying and how
long it will take.
If it sounds like a “great deal” it’s most
likely going to be short of a complete Professional Detail. Will they still
make your car shine, vacuum and provide a little protection? Absolutely! And
this may be a better choice for you and or you’re budget.
#2 PRO SERVICE
INTERIOR DETAIL (call for pricing). 3 hours
A Pro Service Interior Detail starts with removal of
all unattached items from all pockets, center console, glove box, other
small storage spaces and trunk (unless requested not to). These items are bagged
up separately according to the space taken from which gives me access to clean
“everything” and the customer the opportunity to evaluate non essential items
they really don’t need in their vehicle.
Vinyl, plastic and
rubber cleaning; Moving
on to all door panels, dash, center console, knobs, levers, switches, air
vents, pockets, handles, coin trays, sun visors, glove box, gearshift, steering
wheel, Instrument panel, cup holders, door jams, door seals, pedals and rear
shelf are carefully and thoroughly cleaned, conditioned and UV protectant
applied.
Cloth interior, Seats, carpet floors, floor mats and door
panels will be shampooed/agitated and extracted with a “Mytee” extractor,
absolutely the best and most powerful extractor in interior Auto
Detailing. This is the same kind of professional
shampoo/extractor that is used in your home with professional carpet cleaners.
The shampoo cleaning process; A combination of very hot
water, hi lift/suction and cleaning solution is simultaneously sprayed into the
interior fabric and extracted/lifted with each pass of the vacuum/solution
wand.
This solution penetrates deep into the
carpet fibers safely pulling out dirt, stains and odor that simple wont work
with the can spray solution and towels. This fast penetrating formula is one of
the best I’ve used and is people and pet safe. This solution provides “stain
block tm” which helps repel dirt and stains for ease of future cleaning. It is safe
for all wool, nylon, stain resistant and other synthetic auto carpets.
Some stains like tracked in red dirt,
motor oil, red sodas, punch, food grease and more can sometimes actually penetrate
and dye the color of the fabric and are impossible to get out 100% but
stain removal extraction will still have a significant improvement.
Also included in every interior
detail:
Door seals and jambs cleaned.
Check & fill tire
pressure
including spare.
Check all engine fluid levels and
battery terminals cleaned of any corrosion.
Fabric
protectant for carpet, seats and
floor mats.
Air blower to accelerate drying after
shampooing/extraction.
A complete professional
interior and exterior Detail includes all previous services.
NOTE: A COMPLETE PRO SERVICE DETAIL CAN BE ADJUSTED
IN PRICE IF THE CUSTOMER WANTS THE INTERIOR CLEANED, CONDITIONED AND UV PROTECTED BUT DOES NOT REQUIRE
SHAMPOOING OR LEATHER TREATMENT.

leaders in performance and protection in the Detailing industry including:
Meguiar’s, Mothers, Pinnacle, Wolfgang, Klasse, Menzerna, 303 Aerospace,
Rightlook, Stoner, Clay Magic, Raggtopp, Lexol, Scotch Guard, Resolve, Simple
Green, ACS, Craftsman, Snap-on, DeWalt, Flex, FenderSplender PTG, Mytee, and close to 500
horsepower of “Chevrolet Heartbeat” to get me to your location. I am not indorsed nor do I sell any of
these products, I use them because they work! Furthermore, associate my reputation of
using the best in our industry in a professional manner with professional
results.
I don't really understand that!
Ask me about anything you don’t
understand or how a product or procedure will benefit your vehicle. I
absolutely love to 'talk Detail" and feel it is part of my job to educate
and inform my clients about what we do in the Detailing industry and
how far and advanced it has become to prolong the life and appearance of
your vehicles paint, plastic, rubber, vinyl, leather and more.
My paint
and interior are original, 15 years old and they still look close to the day I
picked it up new. It’s not magic, its knowledge!
Ask me how you can keep your
vehicle looking new when it’s 10, 20 or 30 years old.
More about Me / "808 DETAILS"
My reputation and
pride rely on my knowledge and performance of 19 years as an Auto
Detailer.
I
didn’t just grab a bucket, sponge, water hose and license and
start detailing / - :
I am a Trained
Certified Professional Auto Detailer and Recondition Specialist through the
“Rightlook” training center out of
I am also a certified mechanic (1982) and have been fixing and modifying
my own motorcycles, cars, trucks and boats (inboard V8 flat-bottoms) since the
early 80's.
Does your Detailer really know cars? Does it matter? I think it does! I can recognize worn brakes, faulty charging
or Air conditioning systems all the way up to suspension mods or changing your
motor and transmission….., I KNOW CARS! This is not just my job, it's my passion!
I will not show up to your work or residence to detail your vehicle with a beat up work van, my Detail work truck is also my show truck that I have entered and won 3 different car shows with. I have removed, rebuilt and planted two different race motors in my show / work truck and now pushes almost 500 horsepower with intimidating gear drive, electronic cut-outs/dumps and 18 inch wide MT radial tires in the rear.
My intentions have always been to
stand out with the best in Auto Detailing whether it be a fixed shop or mobile
unit. With that said, quick details, cheap products and cutting corners would
ruin my reputation among the select few that go to the extent I do. This is the
kind of drive that has carried over with me in my core values from 20 years in Military
Law Enforcement.
* I require no meds but do confess I have been diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Detailing Disorder “OCDD”
Vehicle Condition: UV damage/“clouding”, paint or fabric fading, deep stains, heavy water spots, heavy etching, small scratches you can feel; This type of paint, glass, plastic, carpet, vinyl and leather damage must be evaluated before any work can be performed. Once evaluated, I will make recommendations that are best suited for the vehicles condition.
Military, I am retired US Navy (20 years) and have access to and thoroughly know my way around
all bases. I work with many Military families;
Solders, Marines, Sailors and Airman from Schofield Barracks, Wheeler, Kunia (AKA
“the tunnel”, my last Command as Security Force Watch Commander), Iroquois Pt, Pearl
and more and feel it’s an Honor to talk to and work with retired, active
duty personnel and thier families. On
or off base, if you
are Military don’t be surprised if I throw in an extra service for no
charge. Thank you for your support and the freedom you provide
for this great country.
