Rainy Day Detailing

Hi All!

So we are moving at a fast pace here at the new location.  We're waiting for a final electrical inspection before we get completely set up in our permanent space, but we've been working hard to prepare inventory for Carnival Kia this week!

For now, we're set up washing and preparing cars just outside our doors, and we have a temporary home in the service drive to do our finish work for interiors and exteriors.  A million thanks to Chris Bostick and his staff for all their support.  We could not ask for a better place to call home. 

So what does a detail shop do on a rainy day?  Most car washes shut down, but not us!  We actually use this opportunity to roll inventory through for our dealer customers.  Our trucks typically are not out in this messy weather, but we stay home at the shop and  work- just a little more casually!

Car of the Week

We are getting to work quickly at Carnival Kia of Franklin!  We have an important role preparing inventory for the dealership.  We are still taking care of our regular customers, however.  In fact, one of our regulars came in today and brought a very special vehicle.  We love when cars like this come in as they bring lots of attention and lookers!

This car is a Porsche Carrera GT3. Porsche enthusiasts would know this body style as the 996.  It is the predecessor to the current model.  This particular model is outfitted with a full roll cage, racing seats to grip you tightly, racing wheels, and of course extra-wide rubber!  We have special jobs for special customers frequently, but this one was unique.  Because the car is used at the track, bits of melted rubber were stuck all over the front of the car, as well as all the way down both rocker panels and behind all four wheels.

Our techs used a special chemical removal process after thoroughly washing the car.  A quick vacuum and some clean windows, and the car was ready for another track day.  Take a look at the video to appreciate the car.  We certainly did!

Packing Up and Moving Out!

Hey Everyone!  Sorry it's been a while since the last post, things have been crazy around the shop. We are excited to finally announce that Details To Go has moved to our new location as of today, March 1st.  We will still be getting set up and ready to go until about March 15th but we will be able to work out of our new location until we are all settled and ready to show everyone. Without further ado...
Details to go is moving to Highway 96 (Murfreesboro Pike) and partnering with Carnival Kia!  We will be located in the new Carnival Kia of Franklin, which is off of Interstate 65 at Exit 65 (next to Williamson Medical Center).  This was a major blessing for the business and we couldn't wait to share the news with all of our friends, family and supporters.  The physical address is:

1413 Murfreesboro Pike
Franklin, TN 37067

Don't fret!  We will be able to still do mobile detailing as well as service our normal clients. We hope you all will join us in our excitement and follow us to our new location.  We look forward to posting pictures of the space once it's completed.  Also, an open house will be in the works soon!
