Been super busy lately!
Just finished up another headlight restoration and trim renewal recently and the difference was huge.
Foggy headlights and faded plastic can really age a vehicle, but most of the time it can be restored instead of replaced.
I’m opening up a few more spots this week for:
• Headlight restoration
• Scratch / scuff repair
• Paint polishing
• Black plastic trim restoration
If you’re interested, send me a picture of the area you want fixed and I can let you know what it would take.
Mobile service available for most jobs.

Back at it this week doing a few automotive reconditioning jobs around Glen Carbon and Edwardsville.
If your vehicle has:
• Foggy or yellow headlights
• Light scratches or paint scuffs
• Faded black plastic trim
I can usually bring it back to life without replacing parts.
I have a few openings this weekend for:
Headlight restoration, paint polishing, scratch repair, and plastic trim renewal.
If you’re interested, send me a picture of the area and I can let you know what it would take.
Always happy to help people get their vehicles looking better again. Mobile service, i come to you.

🚗 Weekend Project Complete
Knocked out a paint enhancement and ceramic coating over the weekend and the results came out great.
Paint enhancement is perfect for vehicles that have:
• Light swirl marks
• Dull or faded paint
• Loss of gloss and depth
It’s a polishing process that removes minor imperfections and brings the shine back before protecting it with a ceramic coating.
The ceramic coating adds:
✔️ Long-lasting protection
✔️ Easier washing
✔️ Deep gloss finish
✔️ Water and dirt repellency
Nothing better than seeing paint come back to life.
If your vehicle’s paint is starting to look tired or dull, feel free to reach out.

🚗 Why Headlight Restoration Is More Than Just “Making Them Clear” 🚗
Most people think cloudy headlights are just cosmetic. They’re not.
Oxidized headlights can: • Reduce nighttime visibility
• Make your vehicle look older than it is
• Fail safety inspections
• Lower resale value
That yellow haze is UV damage breaking down the factory coating. A quick “wipe-on” fix from the parts store won’t last.
Proper restoration requires sanding, polishing, and sealing the lens correctly. That’s what I do.
✔️ Multi-step sanding process
✔️ Machine polishing for clarity
✔️ UV protection applied to help prevent re-oxidation
✔️ Done at your driveway
The difference speaks for itself — check the before & after 👇
If your headlights are starting to haze, it’s much cheaper to restore them now than replace them later.

Even plastic in “good shape” can look better than brand new.
I just finished restoring the black trim on my 2016 BMW X5. It wasn’t badly faded, but look at the difference! My professional restoration products brought out a much deeper, richer, bolder finish than factory.
If your vehicle’s plastic trim is faded, dull, chalky, or just not popping the way it should, this is what I can do for you. My process cleans, restores, and protects the plastic, giving it a long-lasting finish that won’t wash off in the rain.

Just a few snapshots of the work I’ve done recently.

Alright peeps, listen up. I’ll be doing paint correction and ceramic coating on the side on my own time. I currently work as a ceramic coating technician and paint specialist, but I know there isn’t many options for that kind of work in southern illinois. So depending on what the profit margin looks like, I may create a legitimate business out of it. I have worked several cars over the years, anything from domestic everyday vehicles to your 100k+ garage queen. Pricing varies depending on car and condition of paint. I will only be using some of the best ceramic and compounds on the market, and I can assure you that I take pride in my work along with your vehicle. If y’all have any questions, or want to inquire about scheduling you can message me on here or text my personal number @6186417753. Thanks and I hope to see some of your vehicles in the near future!
