Sl 550

Well it seems like awhile since I did my last write up, so this is the SL 550 I detailed this morning. I took advantage of the Father's day sale and got Fuzion which I have been itching to try for awhile. This car being a red made it a perfect candidate.

Car as I arrived








This pic is behind the passenger seat. There is a little compartment there, this is the lid of that. Very dirty


Drivers seat pretty dirty




Car is covered in swirls...apparently he was having another detailer maintain the cars but the guy no longer details...probably a good thing!



And the afters



Spot in the seat is a small tear. He's planning on having the seat replaced I believe.






And the outside...I must say that Fuzion really looks great on this color







Thanks for reading!

Business is good right now. Been keeping busy M-F. I actually took last weekend off.

Jason - My chenille mitt has started coming apart inside, have you had any issues with this?

Nice work, Fuzion is a dream to work with isn't it?

Mine isn't falling apart on the inside, but the cuff is coming off. They certainly are not made that well.

Fuzion is awesome to work with. I didn't have any shade yesterday and I didn't know how Fuzion would work in the sun. Must say it was probably one of the easiest waxes I've used.

Jason,

Did you do some correction, or just use the Fuzion?

No correction just Fuzion. The guy is kind of on the cheaper side and wasn't interested in a correction. I did try to sell him on it. But to each his own. So, just a cleaning was in store.

Good work Jason. Hope business is staying busy for you now that you have made the change.

That car would be fun to have on a maintenance plan.

Business is keeping me busy that's for sure. And I'm not complaining. But I would prefer more cash basis customers...everyone seems to be giving me checks or wanting to pay by credit card...

I talked to him about a maintenance plan and he said he'd think about it.
