Good evening!!!
I hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend so far.
Over the years I have had the honor and privilege of helping so many members of our military protect their vehicles, and often times they are some of my favorite people to work for, and interact with.
A few weeks ago a gentleman by the name of Jason emailed our website looking for help with the different packages and Modesta coatings.
He was very specific and detailed in his email, and I could tell that he was a “detail nerd” like me, so I went all in and delivered a lengthy-detailed response.
I’m also a habitual overthinker and after a few minutes I sent an email apologizing for being so “wordy”.
Jason called and said I knew if this wasn’t some automated AI chat bot responding that you were my guy!
He and his wife had just came in from Germany, and they purchased two new BMW’s there, and had both shipped back stateside.
When I met him in person I was blown away at how much of the information he actually retained, all the way down to the details of my daughters name, and what we were doing the day I called.
I was impressed to say the least!
Jason said he was born in 1981 but he must be sleeping in cryogenic chamber of some sort because he really looked much closer to 30, and was clearly pretty shredded. 💪🏻
Jason picked up his beautiful 2026 BMW X1 today and the interaction at pickup will forever be an all time favorite.
We talked about things that mattered more than money while I had his X1, things like integrity, honor, and honesty.
He gave me this card today and remembered my daughter Grace loved milkshakes even.
I’ve said it before and I’ve got to say it again God continues to put the most amazing people in my path!
(There was a gift card to Starbucks in here as well)
As far as his BMW X1 goes after washing and decontaminating the paint we were left with a terrible case of salt water spots from being shipped overseas.
I tried two different acidic based chemicals to strip them but they hardly made a dent in the mineral and salt stains.
An extensive multistage compounding and multiple steps of machine polishing ensued and roughly 34 hours later we had reached the original goal:
A beautiful new BMW coated with one of the worlds finest ceramic coatings:
MODESTA BC04
We coated the wheels with Modesta BC06 and a glass coating was installed on the front windshield and sunroofs.
Meeting Jason was certainly a highlight of my 2025 and I’m grateful for each and every person that has put their trust in Attention to Detail to help them protect their vehicles!
Thank You!!!
