I just wanted to formally introduce myself. My name is Richard Lin and I'm in Anaheim Hills, California. I've been a sponsor since October 2015 but I've been procrastinating about making this first post because I wanted it to be great! So here goes.
I've been working on Teslas ever since they came on the market having started with the Roadster S. Prior to working on Tesla's we worked on Fisker Karma's as their HQ was across the street from us and we got to work with their R&D. We take great pride in the work we do. We develop special tools and lighting to achieve the results we seek.
When the first Tesla's came to us, we were among the first detailers to install an electrical jack in our shop so we could top off the battery for our Tesla customers. Quite often you will see our shop full of Tesla's!
We have a 6,000SF shop located at 5548 E. La Palma Ave., Anaheim, CA 92807. Our phone is toll free 866 707 9292 and we're open Monday-Friday 8am to 5pm. We were voted the best detail shop in Orange County for 3 years in a row and we have over 41- 5 star reviews on Yelp and another 90- 5 star reviews on DemandForce. You can view our work at www.showcardetailing.com, www.cs2usa.com, and www.facebook.com/showcardetailing
Check out our reviews here: Yelp, DemandForce
Our services include PPF (Paint Protection Film), Tint, Coatings, Perfecting Paint, Touchups, and PDR (Paintless Dent Removal)
With that out of the way, a little more about us and how we can help you. We've been in the OC since 2007, and prior to that were in Los Angeles going back to 2003. I'm known in the industry as being one of the leaders for my knowledge and ability to test and innovate products and solutions for our industry, everything from improving the tools we use, to introducing special LED lights just for correcting paint, to being friends with some of the most well known detailers around the world such as Larry Kosilla from Ammo NYC and Paul Dalton out in the UK and Mike Phillips out in Florida who used to be my partner back in the day. Today I represent a coating company called CS-II which manufactures all products here in California although they are based in Singapore, I represent the US arm. I also manufacture a product for restoring plastic trim called BlackWow and BlackWow Pro. When you visit the shop, you will talk with either myself or my shop manager Josh Vitolo and we are the only ones who will be working on your Tesla.
With CS-II, we can offer protection levels that vary in price starting at $300-$2000. We don't give quotes over the phone as the needs for every car as well as the owners expectations are different. Black Teslas tend to require more work than any other color for example, so it will cost more to prep it before coating, even when brand new. No matter how new your car is, we always see factory flaws and defects and depending on how OCD you are, we can meet or exceed your expectations once we have met and discussed your needs. Every job begins with an in-person evaluation at the shop so we can discuss with you what your paint looks like. This is a chance for us to raise your expectations, to educate you about your paint, and show you what we see through our eyes. Every customer leaves with a new appreciation for their car. I like to use the slogan "We raise your expectations so you can better appreciate our work". During this times, we also get to interview you and find out what is most important to you for example whether you value protection over perfection. In that case, we can better assess your needs and your ability to maintain the level of perfection we provide for you.
After we coat your car, we would love to see you in back in a week for a free followup maintenance wash. We do this to ensure that the coating is performing as expected. I am also your personal consultant who will happily answer your texts, emails, or phone calls on how to best maintain your coating. If you're at the store looking at some microfiber towels, send me a message and I will guide you. If you see bird poo on your car and want to know what to do, call me up and I'll help you. That's what we do here. We want to make your life easier when it comes to maintaining your finish. If you must use a car wash, there are certain places you can go that we can advise you on as well or we can show you how to wash your own car in minutes using special wash solutions that respect our drought conditions.
We do work on other cars besides Teslas, and they are usually black!
And quite often they are destroyed by somebody else and its our job to show them we can fix the problem like this 50/50 showing how we fixed the middle of this buffer trailed door.
The bottom line is that we are in the business of not only making your car beautiful again, but protecting it, and helping you maintain it for many years to come and with over a decade of experience, we are more than qualified to ensure you get the most value for your money.
We are talked about quite a bit on the Tesla forums as a great place to have your car worked on. I look forward to talking to you.
