Our 11th Annual Christmas Bicycle Project ... Operation One Grand

Today, we’re kicking off our mission to bring 1,000 new bicycles to children in need this Christmas!
Last year, your generosity helped us give just under 800 to deserving children.
This year, let’s reach 1,000 together!

Our bicycles reach children from Los Angeles County to the Coachella Valley, through organizations serving foster youth and struggling families, including DCFS, Olive Crest, McKinley Children’s Center, local police departments, and churches.

Some of these children have been brought to safety after neglect, physical abuse, or sexual abuse. Others are navigating foster care, separation from family, or financial hardship that puts a new bicycle far beyond reach. Every one of them deserves moments of joy and the chance to simply be a kid.

Here’s how your help becomes a Christmas gift: As donations come in, we purchase new bicycles. Then volunteers, friends, and families gather to assemble them before we distribute them through the organizations that serve these children.

A bicycle brings adventure, freedom, and a reminder that someone cares.
I cannot do this without your help. Please consider donating, sharing this post, or bringing your friends, church, or business together to support the project. Every contribution helps us move toward 1,000 smiles.

Operation One Grand is presented in partnership with Lead Me Home Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Although it doesn't look like it on my social media posts, I primarily detail automobiles. Every now and then I get a treat.

What started as a kid washing cars for neighbors turned into a lifelong passion for automotive detailing.

From polishing cars in my father's body shop to serving in the United States Marine Corps, I've never stopped chasing that perfect shine.

Since 1989, Superior Shine Auto Detailing has had the privilege of caring for everything from everyday family vehicles to rare Ferraris, Porsches, award-winning classics, historic warbirds, and even a former Air Force One.

But after all these years, it's not just about the cars. It's about the people, their stories, and the pride they take in their vehicles.

Today, we specialize in professional automotive polishing, paint correction, and ceramic coatings, helping Southern California vehicle owners restore, protect, and enjoy their investment.

I'm Joe, owner of Superior Shine. Whether you drive a daily commuter or something extraordinary, I'd love to help you make it shine.

📍 Proudly serving Glendora, Covina, Pasadena, San Marino, Arcadia, La Verne, Upland, and surrounding San Gabriel Valley communities.

Have questions about ceramic coatings or bringing back your vehicle's shine? Send me a message. I love talking shine!

A blast from the past! Back in 2012, I had the privilege of detailing this stunning red Lamborghini Countach, one of the most iconic Italian supercars ever built.

In more than 36 years of professional automotive detailing, I've had the opportunity to work on some extraordinary vehicles, but the Countach is a rare one. In fact, I've only detailed two Lamborghini Countachs in my entire career!

With its unmistakable wedge-shaped design, dramatic rear wing, and legendary V12 heritage, the Countach remains one of the most recognizable exotic cars in automotive history.

At Superior Shine, we've specialized in professional automotive polishing, paint correction, and finish preservation since 1989, caring for everything from classic collector cars and vintage automobiles to modern exotic supercars.

Serving Pasadena, San Marino, Arcadia, Monrovia, Glendora, Covina, and the surrounding San Gabriel Valley.

Detailing Walt Disney’s airplane! ✈️✨ Mickey Mouse One gets some Superior Shine love at the Palm Springs Air Museum.
We’ve polished and shined some amazing things over the years, but this one was special. Luis and I washed, polished, and detailed the exterior of Walt Disney’s Gulfstream, helping get this piece of Disney history ready for display.
Working on it, I couldn’t help thinking about the imagination and determination of the man who dreamed so big. What an honor to have a small part in helping his airplane shine.
Historic aircraft, classic cars, or your daily driver—we love making things shine!
Looking for mobile auto detailing, paint correction, or ceramic coatings in the San Gabriel Valley? We come to you, from Pasadena to Upland and nearby. Message Superior Shine to tell us about your vehicle.
Did you know Walt Disney had his own airplane?
