Let er buck

Its been awhile since I've seen your face. I almost forgotten about you.  I have been thinking about how I have become this master business starter and how I can dream up something that is totally great. I dream up a scheme that is going to work and make me the money that I feel my family needs and pay the bills and then some. Guess what, I already have some good things going for me, I was thinking about a bull rider at a rodeo, that's just what he is he goes to rodeo's to ride bulls. He don't just look at all the bulls from across the fence and say man if I make it a good ride and last 8 sec. I could make the big time. He doesn't say as soon as I get done riding a bull I'm gonna barrel race... no he gets ready for his next ride at the next show. He don't ride every bull they bring to the show, it only takes the one bull to make his game like no one else's. I have realized like a light came on inside my head that I don't need another line of work or another business to do I need to ride the bull that has been assigned to me and let er buck. So its time to strap on the spurs and ride. I would love to share with you in a personal interview of how the ride went after the show...

Livin' in the big time




Detailing  in 2012  has never been better. Our business has exploded and summer time is coming. We are excited to be getting the cars and trucks you drive everyday looking good and maintaining the quality. We have a sweet new method of interior cleaning that rocks out and smells good when were done. We have fought with  cloth sport seating stains for quite some time and now we have the tricks out of the bag and using them to your advantage getting our seats and carpets cleaner than ever. We seem to be buffing allot lately  covering motor homes, boats, and ambulance's. High definition shine is what we do and covering so much ground we get hands on many different products and getting the best results for each application. We do test spots on all vehicles before we apply polish and sealant to see how to best meet that vehicle's needs.  Happy detailing to all...  Come see us at Shine and Shade here in Omak Wa or visit us on the web www.shineandshade.com

Paint correction on BMW




Before                                        After








Serious Paint correction on this BMW yesterday. I was amazed at how awesome the paint came back. I had to just quick post some pictures of the work. Busy season for us so check out the before and afters. Pass it on if you like. I love working with black. No other paint can look so bad but when cared for no other paint can even come close to the depth and shine. This kind of work is not for the beginner to be able to bring this back takes time and care as not to leave holograms.  Oh and the last pic is a lick of some of the work at hand. From left is a bass boat headed for the fishing tournament on Lake Osoyoos on Sat. Jeep for sale ( full detail) for today- 2011 Subaru for tint, Charger, (22" wheels) - and the BMW just completed. An Avalanche on its way for a full and a 2003 Subaru for the day as well. You think I need help? probably so!

May- Where did you come from? I have been so busy at my shop details are streaming through the door window tint is going on every new car we see and house tint? Picking up. What I wish we could sell more of is the Paint protection films. I absolutely am sold on the value and quality of the 3M film and how it can protect a vehicle.  We have put out some bids but not many sales in this little hick town of Omak. I have this product even on my 98 Chevy I installed it right over the rock chips that were already there. I did touch them up a bit before the install. Looks awesome. This month we are working on a 911 detail project detailing 6 ambulance's for local lifeline. These are hard work as they keep them washed up well but the road grime from the winter and all the high speed runs they make each day has taken a toll on the exterior's condition.  Even though I am a busy shop I always take time to research new products, marketing, and strategies on making our shop more advanced and cutting edge. www.shineandshade.com

Yesterday I was just doing a little mini golf. I love golf. We also are doing a Yukon XL from our spring special on our email newsletter. Free coffee with a full detail in the month of April. I am going to have to work to make money on this but isn't that word work go with any thing tied to the word money? At least I can enjoy my work and some day I will enjoy money in the bank but for now I feel like I'm just chasin payments. BTW this golf is for sale... Diesel, 05, 96K miles and you make and offer. Its not mine but I can connect you with the owners if your interested. Tonasket Wa is the place to be with spring popin out all over I love this place and I love summer so bring it on.
