I received a phone call Friday afternoon last minute to see if I had room to take care of this vehicle the following day on Saturday. As this person is a friend of a friend and drove over an hour this way, I moved another client to take this job on. Luckily I had no problems shuffling vehicles around.
I had one full day to knock this one out from interior cleanup, dress/protect vinyl, leather, rubber, and plastics to transforming the exterior and applying a coating. The total transformation lasted 10 hours and by the time I was finished I was whooped from this one.
Upon receiving the car from the owner she could not believe the transformation and that it was still her car. She could not believe the level of glass the car now possessed. She was very thrilled to have her baby brought back to life.
