Father’s Day Gift Ideas
June 6th, 2008Believe it or not Father’s Day is right around the corner on Sunday June 15th, 2008. Sometimes it can be really difficult to find the perfect gift to give on Father’s Day, but Detailed Image is here to help. Everyday I get to interact with customers (many of which are Father’s) and I’ve compiled a list of what I believe are some of the most popular gift ideas. We have all of these products in stock and ready to ship out in one business day and Express deliveries are available.
5 Gift Ideas
1 – Gilmour Foamaster II – This is one of the coolest products any detailer can have! This innovative product uses a special high quality nozzle/reservoir with quick release connections. It attaches to any hose, mixing water and shampoo together, so you can you can quickly spray a layer of foam over your entire vehicle. In about 30 seconds you can coat an entire vehicle top to bottom. Best of all Detailed Image will give you a FREE bottle of the Chemical Guy’s Citrus Wash and Gloss (shampoo) with any Gilmour Foamaster II purchase during the month of June.
2 – Microfiber Towels – No detailer can have enough high quality microfiber towels. These towels are essential for safe and effective detailing. All of the towels sold at Detailed Image are extremely high quality and will ensure you don’t add any micro-scratches to the clear coat. Clean and fresh microfiber towels will make any detailer’s day. This is the most universal product every auto enthusiast will appreciate. Our All Purpose Microfiber Towel is the most popular towel we carry or try the insanely plush reTHICKulous Microfiber Towel. For premium drying try the extra large and silk edged Microfiber Waffle Weave Drying Towel.
3 – Gift Certificates – Some Dads are really tough to shop for, so let them pick out exactly what they want with a gift certificate. These gift certificates can be printed out on your home computer if desired, so it’s a perfect last minute gift. Detailed Image allows you to purchase gift certificates in any denomination.
4 – Porter Cable 7424 – Hand applications can only take you so far, so get the buffer you have read about all over the Internet. The Porter Cable 7424 will help significantly improve the results of any detail. This buffer is extremely easy and safe to use for any detailer and it will save the operator plenty of time and energy. Anybody still using hand applications will be forever grateful for this outstanding buffer. If you want to give him everything he needs try look at our Porter Cable 7424 Starter Kit and Advanced Kit.
5 – Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax – This premium wax will make any color paint look very deep and rich. This is one of the best carnauba waxes we have ever tested and is used on countless show cars. It comes with it’s own applicator pad and microfiber towel. One coat adds a layer of gloss that really turns heads!
Some Father’s seem to have all the best toys, literally all of them. However we’ve provided a few additional ideas for the guys who seem to have it all. These are some of the less obvious products that any detailer would greatly appreciate.
3 More Gift Ideas
CR Spotless Water Filtration Systems – Watermarks are a detailer’s worst nightmare. They come from deposits in water that etch in to the clear coat leaving a nasty mark on the surface. Sunlight greatly expedites this process, which causes detailers to to wash their vehicle extremely fast, while constantly worrying about watermarks. You can eliminate this fear and the possibility of watermarks with this water filtration system. It connects to any hose by simply screwing it in and you’re ready to get started. You will be able to work on your vehicle, home, windows, etc. even in direct sun. This outstanding system gives you everything you need to wash safely, slowly and with confidence. They are available in two sizes and can be wall mounted or attached to a rolling cart.
Gilmour 8ply Flexogen 50ft Hose – How many times have you replaced your home’s hose? Buy the last hose you’ll ever need with one of the most technologically advanced hoses ever created. Many hoses are 3ply – 5ply, where as Gilmour uses an 8ply design for a remarkably durable hose. Gilmour backs up this claim with a Full Lifetime Replacement. It’s strong, flexible, nearly impossible to kink, won’t leak and works with all standard hose equipment.
Glass Science Glass Scrub and Rain Clear Gel Kit – This gift is a sleeper pick, but anyone who has tried it absolutely loves it. No one likes to look through dirty glass, especially when it’s raining, snowing, etc. Your glass is much dirtier than you might think and very difficult to clean properly without the right tools. The key is deep cleaning the micro pores of the glass with the Glass Scrub so the surface is truly clean. Then seal the glass’s micro pores with the Rain Clear Gel to protect the glass. This combination forces moisture to bead up and roll off the glass with ease. It works great around the home as well! Give this very affordable gift today and you will be able to see through your glass even in the worst weather.
