Detailing Innovations Inc. is the company behind BlackWow, GelWow, BotLok, OneGrip, and ShowCar. Every product we make starts with a real problem experienced in the field — and ends with a solution that professionals trust.
Our Brand Portfolio
Every Detailing Innovations product was born from frustration with existing solutions. We build what the industry needs — not what's easy to make.

ShowCarPerfection is Richard Lin's professional show car detailing service based in Anaheim Hills, CA.

The Founders
Richard Lin has been a professional show car detailer for over 20 years. As the founder of ShowCarPerfection in Anaheim Hills, CA, he has worked on some of the most prestigious vehicles in Southern California — and encountered every problem the industry has to offer. His wife and partner, GillianMay Lin, has been by his side building Detailing Innovations into the brand it is today.
BlackWow was born in 2007 when Richard couldn't find a trim restorer that lasted more than a few weeks. GelWow came from frustration with alcohol-based installation gels. BotLok from a ZEP sprayer head that kept loosening mid-install. Each product is a direct response to a real problem experienced in their own shop.
Every Detailing Innovations product is made in-house in the USA using the highest quality materials available. Richard and GillianMay personally oversee formulation and quality control for every batch.
Our Philosophy
Every product we make starts with a real problem experienced in the field. We don't build products for the sake of it — we build solutions.
All Detailing Innovations products are manufactured in-house in the United States using the highest quality materials available.
We design for professional detailers and installers first. If it doesn't perform at the professional level, it doesn't ship.
From individual enthusiasts to professional shops, Detailing Innovations products are used by thousands of customers worldwide.
From packing the DTL INN to presenting to packed crowds on the show floor — our first two years at the world's premier automotive specialty products trade event.
