Xtreme Xcellence’s Rigo Santana & the Detailing Success Network Perform Paint Correction Miracles . Damage to your vehicle’s clearcoat caused by environmental fallout like carbon black build-up, industrial pollution, and acid rain is to be expected, but when you take your vehicle to a so-called professional detailer, you certainly do not expect them to burn away the clearcoat and expose the paint while supposedly polishing your beautiful automobile to a perfect shine! The Challenge Unfortunately, it happens when you take your vehicle to an inexperienced detailer, and that is exactly what happened when Roger took his 2007 BMW to a non-licensed and non-certified detailer in Southern California for a routine exterior cleaning. The result was disastrous. Desperately seeking a solution for how to repair the paint on his wounded Beamer, Roger hit the jackpot when he bumped into Orange County auto detailing professional Rigo Santana of Xtreme Xcellence. Xtreme & Team to the Rescue! A member of the elite detailing team known as the Detailing Success Network, Rigo and his colleagues, led by mentor and master detailer Renny Doyle, just happened to be attending an Orange County training seminar in Lake Forest to receive their master certifications in the application of Gtechniq coatings. “Roger was sick over the damage this guy did to his paint and was frantically looking for someone who could advise him on what to do,” Rigo says. “When he saw the high level of paint correction and careful handling of the paint our skilled team used while applying Gtechniq, he realized that if it could be fixed, we could fix it! “The Beamer looked beaten up,” Rigo continues. “Over the lifetime of the car, you would not want to remove more than twenty-five percent of the thickness of the clearcoat, but this other so-called detailer had cut completely through the clearcoat nearly to the paint, almost destroying it.” Multi-stage paint correction is an artistic skill that demands finesse, patience, focus, and an unfettered passion for perfection. Roger not only stumbled upon one of the finest paint correction specialists in the country, but Rigo was accompanied by the entire West Coast Detailing Success Network team ― the most experienced paint perfection specialists and detailers in the world, all under one roof! “We look at this kind of project, where a reckless detailer has almost destroyed the value of this man’s investment, as well as the beauty of the automobile itself, and we go to work! This is what we do!” Rigo explains. “By pooling years of experience, all our resources, and sharing knowledge, we were able to bring the paint back and stabilize it well enough to save it. Once we accomplished that, we finished it off with a durable, long lasting protective sealant." Overwhelmed by the results, when the team was finished with Roger’s 2007 BMW, it looked like he drove it off the lot new in 2013! Now Roger can brag to his colleagues about how he had his car detailed by the same team of detailers who detail Air Force One and other museum treasures!

The prowler's modern street rod body is unique, relatively rare and deserves a pristine paint job. There was a somewhat limited run of the prowler only being produced in the 1997 & 1999-2002 model years by Chrysler and Plymouth. Interestingly they only offered the Prowler in purple in 1997 but expanded the color pallet in 1999-2002. If you see a black Prowler chances are it is a 1999 or a 2000 unless it is a repaint. Like any commodity, it is better to have as many original features remaining as possible to maintain or increase its value. This car was no exception which is why the customer chose to have the paint corrected rather than repainting. A full hand wash was performed after removing all of the loose dirt from the vehicle followed by a cleaning of the wheels and tires. The paint was then decontaminated using a claying process followed by a thourough inspection of the paint to located any potential issues that could arise in the paint correction process. After some spot sanding to remove larger scratches the car was compounded and polished finished with a long lasting paint sealant. After finishing up the wheels and tires the interior was detailed and the car was ready to go home.

During the day you can view any number of lakes and mountains and just enjoy driving. At night, however, the roads twist and turn and good visibility is a necessity. The newer vehicles have incredibly strong headlight bulbs but over time the plastic lenses that cover them get pitted and so foggy in some cases that very little light can shine through them. Andrew Swenson and his staff at Wolfeboro Carwash & Executive detail in Clarke Plaza have performed a number of headlight restorations as pictured here. If you find yourself not being able to see the road clearly at night it may be time for a visit. Headlight lens restoration as typically a fraction of the cost of a new lens package.
