Car Detailing/Computer Service

Car Detailing


GET YOUR DETAIL DONE BEFORE WINTER HITS!
Service:

- Hand Wash car using NXT, Meguiars, Rain X or Menzerna car wash; your choice, and a combination of micro fiber mitt and Black Magic sponge, and hose (no more power washer)
- Clean wheels tires and wheel wells with Orange degreaser and Meguiars Hot Rims wheel cleaner, and using Black Magic wheel sponge
- Clean undercarriage lightly and as far as I can reach underneath the car, using a degreaser and sponge
- Thoroughly dry car, door jams, trunk lid, and engine bay, as well as gas cap making sure no water sprays when leaving
- Thoroughly clean wheels with WD-40 which leaves wheels looking clean and keeps brake dust off, then applying Black Magic tire shine
- Light polish using Poorboys polish and a Porter Cable
- Using Poorboys Quick spray wax, finishing off the car to give it that final touch

Price - $75

Extras:

- Full interior vacuum with light detailing using Armor All Natural Finish Detailer, which gives it a nice look and not shiny at all $15
- Clay Bar $20
- Full interior cleaning as above and also cleaning carpets with carpet cleaner $25

I can come to you if you are local and have a hose and power outlet. I use only the best products and only MF towels, except for wheels and tires.

If you think I am overpriced, well too bad! First I am not a mass market detailer. I do usually one - two cars per weekend, and i do this on my free time. I use expensive products as well.

no more computer work...lol too much of a hassle.

PM me for more.

Thanks!

Some of my Work

I have a question, though not necessarily about this topic, but since your a techy, you might know.

I just built my own system, specs are as follows.

Antec 900 Case
Intel Core2Duo 2.93 ( will probably overclock to 3.4)
PNY XlR8 8800 Overclocked Card
Asus board
4G of RAM
1x 750 and 1x 150 internal HDD's

But my system is running super slow, even running Firefox, It gives me the "slideshow" when scrolling down a page, and Eve Online, an MMO I play, wont even open. My old system, water cooled, single core, 3.4 gig, 2 Gig of RAM, seems to run faster.

Am I retarded, or did I miss something?

hmm im sure you are running XP correct? that really shouldnt happen. did you build this system yourself? if so you installed XP fresh correct? that problem usually happens when you have low memory, which obviously isnt your problem. btw, if you are running XP, its pointless to have more than 3GBs as Windows XP does not see it.

I installed XP Pro fully on a 150gb 10,000 RPM raptor, just so it could run faster.

I did build it myself, as I did with the other one, but I've never seen this before.

I made sure the BIOS was updated, and the HDD's were properly partitioned, and it all looks legit. I know its not overheating, because I'm running a 120mm Fatal1ty Heatsink.

Its fairly dissapointing given how long I worked on this system

Since the internal drives are of diff. sizes and RPM's RAID would be impossible. I have not updated the Driver for the MOBO and vid card yet, but since they were only 3 weeks old, I didn't think I needed to.

I guess when I get home tonight I'll try finding some updated drivers.

I'm using an ASUS 680 SLI card for the 775 Socket, but I cant remember exactly what its name is.

Check your dinglehopper..I had a clogged dinglehopper and my computer was running super slow sometimes wouldn't even startup...I took a pipe cleaner and got all of the dust mites out of the dinglehopper and its straight now.

jk good luck hope you get it fixed..sound like a pain in the balls.

check the mem timings and the CPU settings. if you changed anything, set it back to stock and see if that cures the problem. Also, make sure your CPU heatsink and fan are correctly seated and working.
