Hi Performance Detail- Baton Rouge

Spoke with these guys today and was impressed with their work. I have a Silverado that I need detailed and they do paint corrections and a clear bra protection.
Anyone have experience with these guys or recommend this route?

My brother and I met Andrew and his close friend at a concert once and we talked and hung out for a bit after as we are both into the same bands, guns, and vehicles. I am certain he does fantastic work and have heard nothing but good things about his company. The dude hustles.

Andrew did the coating on my truck. He does great work and cares about the details. When you get a vehicle back from him, it's perfect.

Yes, Hi Performance Detail is excellent and Andrew does good work. One of my close friends used to be a direct competitor of his and they kept the competition close.
If he has a long waiting list I can do the detail for you. My buddy who used to compete directly with Andrew (sold his company) sold me a bunch of his old equipment (rupes, flex, porter cable, and Menzerna/HD polishes) and taught me about paint correction over the years when I helped him. If you want to see some of my work let me know.
As for clear bra, I would absolutely advise against putting it on your truck. It scratches easily, you won't be able to polish it, and the sun will slowly make it turn yellow. Just deal with the tiny defects in the paint from bugs and such and keep the paint taken care of. Clear bra is also a nightmare to remove if you were to install it and change your mind.

First off, thank you everyone for the kind words...
I'm the business manager at Hi Performance Detail and am happy to educate anyone in regards to proper detailing, ceramic paint coating, and paint protection film. [AMA] I would encourage each of you to check our website to see our work/services: www.hiperformancedetailing.com
In reference to the "clear bra easily scratching and turning yellow", that is FALSE. We use Suntek Film which will NOT turn any color, is unnoticeable when applied to the untrained eye, and will absolutely protect your paint and vehicle. Not to mention, it comes with a 10 year warranty. The point of the film is to preserve your car and NOT have to polish your car for an extended period of time. ESPECIALLY if the ceramic coating (i.e. Modesta or Nanolex) is applied on top of the film for an extra layer of protection. And if polishing is required, properly trained detailers will prevent scratches from ever being an issue. Think of the coatings and film as a protective shield... so before being applied, rigorous steps of different polishing and paint correction is done to get the absolute best look out of your paint. Because once coating/film is applied, it will preserve the pristine condition your vehicle is in for years to come.

Excellent rebuttal!
I have only had one experience with very weathered clear bra and thought it looked terrible but I was unaware of the brand or the upkeep by the owner. I stand corrected.
I am also familiar with ceramic coatings since I have one on my Yukon. It isn't Modesta or Nanolex but is an older brand. What can I do to prevent water spot buildup since polishing removes the coating?
EDIT: The brand is opticoat, first generation.
Thanks for joining the OB.
