2019 Ask-a-Pro Blog Recap
by Reece @ DIAnother great year is coming to an end for the Ask-A-Pro Detailer Blog. On top of our already great authors, we added Zach & Leanne Silvernail who put together some awesome product reviews with fantastic photography and Mike Cardenas who covered various topics but really stood out with his running a business Product Inventory Management article. Long time author James Melfi went all out for the DI YouTube Channel by pumping out various detailing videos from simple detailing tips to SEMA Show 2019 interviews. James also had a fantastic Detailing Essentials Series hitting on some of the detailing basics.
We want to take this chance to thank all of our authors for all of their hard work, along with thanking all of our readers for the support this past year. Without you guys, the blog could not have grown to where it is today! Below you will find some article highlights from each author and we hope you have enjoyed all of the topics covered by everyone. If you do however have any suggestions on topics you would like to see covered, leave them in the comments section below. Here is to 2020!
