Helped a buddy with a start up company to detail personal airplanes in the Kansas City area. We mostly focused on exteriors of the plane such as; buffing the paint, waxing, dry wash, wet wash, and touch-up paint.We specialized in applying a product called "permaguard" which is a product that protects the paint of the plane by adding UV protection and a thin invisible layer over the paint to protect from other elements in the air. Every 1,000 feet you are losing 3-5% UV protection, so without the permaguard the plane would basically just be eaten up by sunlight when in flight.I helped for a full year until Lukas came to me asking me to come back because they were building a new store and wanted "the best" management crew they could get.
