Top Detailer in the US To Give Demonstration at the Italian Class Display On July 10
Todd Cooperider, owner of Esoteric Auto Detail and selected by AutoWeek Magazine as one of the top nine Auto Detailers in US, will give a hands-on demonstration of proper automotive detailing techniques at the Italian class display at the Arthritis Auto Show on Saturday, July 10. His detailing services are also offered through NJB Automotive, an independent Ferrari service, restoration, and detailing shop in Central Ohio and trophy sponsor for the 2010 Italian Class.
In addition to performing detailing and paint restoration services, Cooperider authors numerous detailing articles, a blog, and manages the Ask A Pro section for Detailed Image. He offers complete restoration services and specializes in Ferraris and other exotic cars.
"I remember the first time I detailed for money. I was so focused on achieving perfection and making a good impression on the customer that I didn't care how long the job took or if it would be profitable. I simply wanted the customer to be amazed by how their car turned out," said Cooperider. "When I finally finished, I just sat back and enjoyed how good the car looked, and thought: 'wow...I did that!'. And the look on the owner's face...you know the one...where they can't believe it's the same car...that got me hooked."
Cooperider says that one of the biggest mistakes that owners make is rushing the process, leaving swirl marks and other blemishes that can ruin the look of the car. He notes that improper washing and drying are two key areas where most mistakes are made.
Be sure to register your vehicle for the 2010 Arthritis Auto Show, meet Todd Cooperider and Jack Babbitt from NJB Automotive, and learn ways to preserve the look of your treasured vehicle for years. More information is available on his website at: http://www.esotericdetail.com/

2009 Exotic/Performance Fall Car Cruise Recap & Photos
Thanks to everyone who attended the 2009 Fall Exotic and Performance Car Cruise. We had around 45 cars participate in the cruise that started off and ended at Scott's Two Bears Farm. We enjoyed the attendance of the Columbus Cars and Coffee group this year - thanks Paul.
We had a beautiful fall day, the roads were twisty, the cars were fast, and the fall colors, covered bridges, and rolling hills were picturesque. We enjoyed two hours of challenging driving through the hills and then a catered lunch at the farm.
