  • oCarbon is looking for owners of cool cars…

    We are looking to expand our make and model offerings on interior trim parts, so we’d like to find some owners of some high end European vehicles to help us out.  We’re going to offer real carbon fiber trim sets at HUGE discounts to people who are willing to send in their trim to us […]
  • Spent some time polishing

    We got some new buffing pads and I’m very impressed with how the pieces are buffing out.
  • New compressor is all setup…

    It took us a few days to get the spray booth setup, but its finally done.  We spent the majority of the day yesterday plumbing the new compressor to the new filter we picked up on Friday.  All the hard work has paid off with a leak free system. Sam soldering the copper pipe. Multiple shut […]

  • A few setbacks at the shop recently…

    Just wanted to make a quick blog post to give everyone a heads up on why I’ve been so hard to get a hold of this week. I went out to lunch a few days ago and when I returned, the street was completely flooded with muddy water. After a little investigation, I found the […]
