Hello everyone!

This is my first post under this username but my last username only had 17 posts anyway haha!

Anywho, this past year has been the first for my business Show Shine Detailing. Yes, I realize now that my company name is nearly the same as the forum name but i swear i never knew!

Enough bull, where's the car? I'm still getting used to taking full pictures of my work.

Here's the break down on products:

Wheels: Sonax wheel cleaner plus, Iron X, Mothers chrome polish
Tires and wells: Meg's APC, super degreaser, Dressed with optima ttgp "best dressing ever"

Paint: 2 bucket wash, car pro Aussie lambs wool mitt "holds a huge amount of soap", Chem Guys Citrus wash, Iron X w/ blue sponge

Polishing: Rupes 21, UHS system, 6 and 5 inch, finished perfect and didnt need to be refined any more. UHS on single stage paint? it worked amazingly.

Protection: Two coats of Opti-seal, and a wipe down with Car Pro Reload.

Interior: Megs APC on mats, Leatherique on seats, dash polished by hand, steering wheel polished with Mothers billet aluminum polish.

Probably forgot something but lets see the car already!!!!

Interior before, notice the sorry state of the mats and how dry and weak the leather looks.


Original paint condition. Owner attempted to polish it himself





This was the best spot on the car before



Ok, so here we see some dirty wheel wells



Cleaned everything up, wheels first, washed the car, then Iron X



Iron X did its job and then i taped the car up for polishing. You do not want to rub the leather piping on the body!!!



50/50 of the UHS system on the trunk which was the worst part of the car



Finished side



All polished up and ready for LSP!



Gave the interior a knock out punch with an 18 hour application of leatherique





Finished Product!!!!















And here's the steering wheel after polishing. I didn't want to make it a mirror finish




Hope everyone enjoyed my first post! I have another 25 write ups to do HAHAHA
 
Yes. The top of the dash and the gauge area was all polished by hand. An hour after the customer picked the car up, UPS delivered my rupes lh75 and nano hahahaha.
