Nice work Phil. So was the customer surprised?

i hope he was.

I am the customer; & yes, I was surprised.
Actually, I was, and still am, speechless.
Phil's pix tell the story.
The car looks better today, 10 years after delivery, than it did day 1.

thanks!

you know I asked Brian a few times if you were okay, I was a bit freaked out because you didn't say anything.

Wow. That is impressive. There is not anyone like you in Memphis to my knowledge. I DIY. Just made a good purchase from last month. Not ready for anything like that. Still learning. Please PM me tell me what kind of cost a job like that would run. And how many hours of time goes into a car with that much worked needed.

Hats off Great work.

Your Boxster looks great!

A good detailer can really have a night and day affect on the overall appearance of the car.

It may cost more up front but the results are worth it. Not only that but a good detailer will know enough to use the least aggressive polishes/pads to remove as little paint as possible to achieve the desired results. This means that more paint will be available for future repairs thus increasing the longevity of the original paint.
