Richard “RJ” Valentine, a prominent figure in the automotive industry, is advancing Valentine Performance Detailing (VPD) by significantly expanding its premium car care product range. Since its inception, VPD has developed a strong customer base due to its high-performance detailing solutions, which are now available in professional shops at leading racetracks, including New Jersey Motorsports Park. The expansion has resulted in a more than twofold increase in product offerings, catering to the varied needs of car owners, collectors, and professionals. New products include vehicle finish enhancers, garage protection solutions, and proprietary spill containment absorbents.
The expansion features a curated selection of advanced polishing products, which include high-density foam polishing pads available in various sizes and strengths, as well as lambswool orbital detailing pads and microfiber cutting pads. VPD also offers top-tier polishing compounds and orbital tools designed to achieve showroom-quality results.
In addition to detailing products, VPD has introduced Garage Gloss, a polymer-based floor finish that provides a durable, long-lasting shine for various floor types. The quick-curing formula ensures that floors remain glossy and well-protected.
Valentine, who has extensive experience with high-performance vehicles, emphasizes the importance of maintaining their condition. He stated, “This expansion ensures that whether you’re detailing a race car, showroom vehicle, or classic automobile, you have access to the very best tools to achieve perfection and maintain a pristine environment.”
Valentine is also the founder of FlashDry, a company specializing in spill containment solutions. FlashDry offers an organic coir absorbent along with a range of pads, mats, and spill kits designed for effective cleanup of various liquids, promoting safety in automotive environments. Valentine noted the dangers associated with traditional clay-based absorbents, leading him to create FlashDry as a safer alternative.
Through this expansion, VPD aims to redefine vehicle maintenance, aligning with Valentine’s vision of automotive excellence by combining innovative technology with user-friendliness. The diverse product collection is set to elevate standards in car care and maintenance.
