The Artist -- A Detailer's Story: Automotive Aesthetic 

Rest in peace Daniel, hope you're detailing some amazing cars 🙏

Earlier this week, I lost my grandma. We were really close. No joke, I have been watching the gears and gasoline detailing videos featuring Daniel and his crew all of this week to distract myself. This morning I find a post saying that he passed unexpectedly. What a loss! I’m so sorry for his family and friends. He was one of a kind!

The look on ol dude's face @ 5:50, that's what it's about man.....bless

This man and his team inspired me to get into detailing. I was really wanted to go them and asking for an internship or to work for them bc I wanted to learn from him and others. Damn, gone too soon but the father above knows whats hes doing. Rest in peace

RIP to my biggest inspiration for the auto detailing industry 😓🙏🏻

Look the Evo video from G&G, but this video is art! Congrats, most amazing detailing story I've ever seen. Regards from México.

I've seen your video on facebook, and I like to watch car detailing videos and I like watching more, when it's doing by a professional detailer. Please upload all your work. Follower from Germany/Turkey 👌🏼

Daniel, you have no idea how many people you touched….Cousin, I hope you’re at rest. I’ll see you from time-to-time: in your mom; in your Uncle; in my husband... Our bodies leave us when we die, but that doesn’t mean we don’t live on. You’re immortal through our memories, and don’t you worry-through us, you’ll live on. Rest easy ❤️

Rest in peace Daniel.

Gone too soon.

RIP

Rest in peace, Daniel.

I almost cried 😢 That was amazing!

He such a a cool dude, honestly I feel like spending one day with him I would learn so much.

It is apparent that Daniel has worked hard his whole life and not afraid to work. The detail business is labor intensive not to mention tuff on your body. I wish you all the best for following your passion to your profession!

Beautiful! very well put together and produced! Congratulations! Cheers from Portugal

Rest in peace Daniel 💛

An inspiration to so many, and dream come true for finicky car enthusiasts, Daniel is sorely missed. But if there is a silver lining about his life’s work and passion, the young men who worked with him during his quest to be the best in the industry have continued working under the company name and are still working magic on automobiles of all calibers in the spirit of this video. Just had my 981 Cayman S done last week (April 2024): Signature detail and single-stage paint correction for some light water spots and spiderwebbing. Turned out beautifully. I still call the primary operators “Daniel’s boys”, because not only have they been an integral part of Automotive Aesthetic for many years, but when I last spoke with Daniel, he said his boys were holding down the fort while he was back home in Roanoke. I think Daniel would be proud to see that his inspiration and tutelage is paying off and proudly being carried on under the name of the company that was his dream - one that was synonymous with top notch workmanship. RIP Daniel. Your boys have got this 👍🏼

Rest in peace Daniel, you'll be greatly missed

This is one of the best depictions and descriptions of what we do I have ever seen. Fantastic! Have been following you since this video aired, you are doing great work at Automotive Aesthetic Daniel!

I resonate so much with detailing being a flow activity. Ever since my wife mentioned what a flow activity was 10~ years ago from her college phycology days it’s what I think of every time I’m detailing.

i know those air max's wern't released in america ... i bought mines in south korea. they are my detailing shoes to!!! ... goood look on the rupes to.

I'm from other side of the world but I follow and admire your works . I just started detaling and I love it . I have so much question to ask about detaling but I don't know how and where to ask them

what steamer and foam cannon do you guys use? killer videos - subbed and waiting for the next detail!

anyone know what brand/type of sponge he's using?

Hey u guys should do more vids

nice vid ❤
