Jake Larson Owner of east coast polishing.
Jake Larson is the owner of east coast polishing before he became a polisher he started out as pipe fitter and owning his own business was just a dream. He taught himself how to polish from videos and trial and error. that’s how he was able to develop the skill set he has now also the desire he had to make it his everyday like. It took Jake two months to perfect his first set of wheels that should only take a couple hours to maybe 1 day depending on how bad they are.
Lrson is really known for his work in polishing aluminum. One of his biggest tasks he has done is probably his fully polished out sema truck or is fully polished burnout mail truck. Larsons fully polished sema truck started out as kind of a joke due to him organically using the truck as a work truck, but something happened to the one fender while he was driving. So, with a bad fender he didn’t really care about the fender and wanted to see if he could polish it out. Well, he could and made it look really nice and he kept going on some other panels and then one day he said screw it and ended up pulling the hole truck apart and redoing the hole thing and then also finish polishing it. What makes him a interesting form a entrepreneurial perspective is that he built a business from nothing and build his own brand. now he even gets work with a lot of really cool companies to help him grow.

It is really cool to see that not giving up and learning things on your own can turn any seemingly simple skill into a brand. It gets you thinking that sometimes, to go big, you don’t have to go to a higher-level school. All you need is some persistence and determination to locate the knowledge all around you.
Hearing someone using a skill they learned from videos online to start a business is impressive and good to hear. It shows that with enough effort and dedication you can do anything, even if you aren’t confident in your abilities at first.
