In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on something that happens way too often behind the scenes in this industry — corporate bullying.

I recently received a cease and desist letter from a competitor brand. And while I’m not going to name names, I will say this: I won’t be intimidated. I won’t be silenced. And I will keep building this brand the way I always have — through honesty, transparency, and great products.

If a letter in the mail is the best they’ve got… they’re already losing.

👉 Listen in as I share my reaction to the C&D, why I think brands do this, and what this means for Jimbo’s Detailing moving forward.

Thank you to every customer and supporter — this only fuels the fire to keep going.

In this episode, I break down why so many detailing brands are falling apart — and why Jimbo's Detailing is growing stronger every month. From shady pricing tactics to overhyped products that underdeliver, I'm calling it like it is. No gimmicks, no fluff — just what works.

Detailing used to be simple. Now it feels like a hype-driven, overcomplicated mess. In this episode, I'm breaking down how the industry got here—and how we fix it.

Somewhere along the way, car care became more about foam shows and flashy bottles than actual results. New products drop every week, and detailers are told they need 15 different bottles just to wash a car. I'm calling BS on that.

Thanks again for all the support and patience — it truly means a lot!

In this episode, I break down a YouTube comment that perfectly captures why I started Jimbo's Detailing in the first place.

"Why haven't the big brands already come up with stuff like this?"

That one question says it all. Most detailing brands just repackage the same old formulas with new labels—but I wanted to do something different. I'm not here to clutter your shelves with hype. I'm here to create purpose-built products that save you time, simplify your process, and actually work.

I'll share why big brands can't innovate, why I refuse to settle for "good enough," and how I'm building every product in the Jimbo's line to make your detailing life easier—not more complicated.

If you've ever wished for a better product, I want to hear about it. Because chances are… I just might go build it.

What if you could skip panel prep and get better ceramic coating results? In this episode, I break down how Picture Perfect Polish is changing the game by delivering a surgically clean surface — without the need for a panel wipe.

It saves time, reduces chemical use, and creates a stronger bond for coatings. Could this be the future of paint correction? I think so.

In this quick update, I explain why the release of Picture Perfect Polish is taking longer than expected. The short version: we ran into a raw material shortage (specifically the aluminum oxide blend we use), and I'm also taking extra time to finalize the two custom pads that will complete the system.

Originally, I estimated a 6–8 week timeline — but due to these delays, it's now looking like another 6–8 weeks before we can start shipping.

I'm doing everything I can to make sure the final product is absolutely perfect and worth the wait.
