Default Another detailing thread...
...but I had to post and give kudos to Wes @ Orion detailing for an amazeballs job on my 2007 C2. Not only is he a super nice guy, he does an amazing job and will be realistic about the outcome. He even coated the rims and they now look like I just bought them, mind you, this is my winter setup. He offered to do the summer rims for a very reasonable price too. Got Opti-Coat Pro coating applied to the vehicle and was amazed at the results. This is going to save me hours waxing & buffing the car, instead I can spend more time driving it.

Feeling the RS wing. You need some multispoke wheels though

Wes @ Orion is the man indeed. Had him do a two-stage polish + opti-coat pro on my 997TT last summer and he did a great job at a fair price. Great guy to chill and chat with too.

Your 997 looks great! Good for you for rocking the pcar year round.

My car looked like Vern's when I dropped it off with Wes and now it looks like it just came out of the showroom. Looking forward to getting the summers back on which will complete the pretty picture.

The thing I really like about Opti Coat is not needing to wax the car anymore...just a 2-bucket wash and it sparkles.

Love the ceramic clear coats. Going to be Opti-Gloss Coating mine this weekend hopefully.

Its not the pro coat but I can DIY and it lasts years. I sold my last car, 3 years after I coated it and it was still beading water like crazy. Always washed with ONR.

Can anyone share Wes's contact info? I am finishing up some projects on my car, and I would like it get it fully detailed. Do you think he would come out to Oshawa?

Look up Orion detailing on the web. To my knowledge he does not do mobile detailing and is often heavily booked
