Yikes! Back to School

Back to School Brings Back School Activities

Normal day-to-day living can wreak havoc on your vehicle’s seats, carpets, and hard plastic surfaces. Over time, your vehicle endures an onslaught of dirt, grass, leaves, mud, asphalt, sand, body sweat, gasoline, food particles, hand oils, grease, juice, and more - not to mention millions of bacteria, germs, and whatever else tracked in by shoes, gym and school bags, clothes, and hands!

Appearance Pro takes over where Do-it-Yourself methods fail

Sticky Fingers & Sweaty uniforms!

Along with school days come the hazards of kid grime for your ride: sticky fingers, dripping ice cream cones, spilled sippy cups, dirty sports equipment, sweaty dance gear, along with a greasy French fry or two, wedged between the seats. The accumulation of fast-food mishaps, sweaty sports gear, dirt, and assorted spills can add up to one big, stinky mess. Not to mention a vague perma-odor that even that little scented pine tree hanging from your rearview doesn’t get rid of.

The Pooch Factor

If all the of the crud brought in by the kids isn’t enough, add a dog or two along for the ride. Fifi and Fido bring a host of pet dander, fur, dirt, and the potential for unexpected accidents, such as vomit and urine.

It’s more difficult than it sounds, but anyone who has tried to DIY an accidental urine spot from the carpet or another bio-hazardous accident like vomit, knows that a sponge and hot, soapy water will only make it worse!

The Amazing Glassparency

Glassparency rises to the occasion!

This incredible glass protection formula creates a super-smooth hydrophobic glass surface that enhances vision in inclement weather and drastically reduces night glare.

Glassparency's water micro-beading characteristics repel ice and snow and prevent it sticking to your windshield.

No more scraping ice from the glass surface. Rainwater beads up on the surface and rolls away without leaving water spots and streaks. It dramatically cuts down on how hard your windshield wipers work, saving wear and tear on your wiper blades.

Better yet, Glassparency has a 3-year warranty! It cannot be purchased over-the-counter and requires a certified Glassparency installer like Appearance Pro Detailing to apply.

Double Black Inspiration: Our Newest Ceramic Coating Product

Renny Doyle’s Double Black Inspiration Coating is a cutting edge, standalone premium brand ceramic protective exterior coating created by P&S Sales for Jimmy Sadoski's mentor, Renny Doyle of Detailing Success and Detailer of Air Force One fame. It is designed to last for 18 months to three years, depending on the ferocity of the environment.

Built and honed to Renny’s specifications for high-end detailing projects like McCall’s Motorworks Revival, The Quail at Monterey Car Week; and the annual Air Force One Detailing Team at Seattle's Museum of Flight, Inspiration performs to the highest standards of today's technology.

Inspiration provides an exceptional layer of durable long-lasting protection unlike traditional wax products. When cured, Inspiration forms a solid molecular barrier that is impervious to chemicals, corrosion, UV exposure, and high temperatures, creating an impenetrable hydrophobic layer of protection.

This innovative coating is formulated for use by professional detailers and is not a DIY product.

Because it is a permanent or semi-permanent coating, Inspiration seals in any flaws on the paint at the time of application. Therefore, the paint surface should first be perfected to achieve maximum results. A thorough detailing and paint correction may be necessary prior to application.

Jimmy Selected for 2019 Air Force One Detailing Team!

The Colony Detailer Kicks Off Independence Day as Member of 2019 Air Force One Detailing Team at Seattle’s Museum of Flight

The Colony detailer, Jimmy Sadoski of Appearance Pro Detailing, LLC has been hand-picked for the much anticipated 2019 Air Force One Detailing Team at Seattle’s Museum of Flight. He has been selected out of hundreds of detailers nationwide by the original “Detailer of Air Force One”, Renny Doyle of Detailing Success. Doyle announced this year’s 55-person team just in time for the Independence Day holiday, and he will lead the weeklong project at the museum, July 7-14.

Sadoski received his Detailing Business, Paint Correction, Headlight Repair, and Ceramic Coatings Certification from Doyle last year, as well as dual certifications (CD SV) from the International Detailing Association (IDA).

For 16 years, members who are chosen for the exclusive Air Force One Detailing Team, do so voluntarily as their patriotic duty to restore, maintain and protect the original presidential jet Air Force One and more than a dozen additional historic aircraft currently on exhibit in the museum’s new Airpark Pavilion.

In addition to Air Force One, which is currently in preservation stages after 15 years of restoration, the team will continue restoring a solid aluminum WWII B-29 Super Fortress Bomber and a recently acquired and badly deteriorating Vietnam-era B-52G Stratofortress Bomber. They will also clean and continue to maintain the first-ever Boeing “Jumbo Jet” 747; the Concorde Alpha Golf; and the first 1960s-70s-era Boeing 727-022 commercial airliner – all three, planes previous teams have begun restoring in the past 5-10 years.

“I trained Jimmy as an expert in all types of paint and helped him perfect his skill at cleaning and polishing paint and metal, so I knew when I chose him for the team this year, he is experienced, qualified, and will do a great job,” said Doyle. “He has an eye for detail and an instinct for perfection that is an absolute ‘must’ for this project, and it will give him an experience he won’t get anywhere else.”

“I certainly never expected to be detailing multi-million-dollar historic airplanes when I got into detailing,” said Sadoski. “But getting the opportunity to clean and polish and be caretakers for all these iconic aircraft – especially Air Force One – is something I will not forget! I am honored to have been chosen for the team and it makes the Fourth of July holiday special this year.”

Air Force One is the first presidential jet, known as a flying Oval Office for four American presidents including Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon. It entertained International dignitaries like Nikita Khrushchev and Henry Kissinger. For more than a decade, it lived on the open tarmac exposed to Seattle’s notorious climate.

In 2003, a Bush-administration executive contacted Doyle about saving the deteriorating paint and brightwork on the iconic plane. Doyle was known for his skill at paint correction and restoring the shine on classic cars, as well as his knowledge in caring for expensive car collections, exotics, and aircraft.

“That beautiful jet was in such a distressed state when I first saw it in 2003, and it was just me, my wife and business partner Diane, and a few staff members who decided anything we did would help and nothing we did could make it worse,” said Doyle. “There was a lot of new technology, new equipment, and innovative products coming onto the market for professional detailers 16 years ago that I had been field testing.

“Since then, those tools and products – some for which we have developed specifically based on the needs of this project, have been instrumental in bringing the plane up to the excellent condition it is in now.”

The plane is in excellent condition now, but still requires an annual cleaning because even though it does not sit exposed on the tarmac, it is inside an open-air pavilion, covered but still subject to the dampness and cold that causes her paint and brightwork to get cloudy.
