Mini Cooper Nightmare
Mini Cooper - This Mini was a bit of a surprise. We figured it would be an 8 hour job. How bad could it possibly be, it's such a small car. The customer asked for paint correction services and the interior to be cleaned....he then added he would like the wheels pulled off/detailed and the wheel wells detailed as well. Okay when we got the car it was something else.......take a look what a disaster!

That wasn't so bad........let's start with the interior detail. Interior before shots: --- Dog hair???? no one said anything about dog hair...
