Awesome job...

Quick question...when you foam with the APC mix do you just let it sit and then wash or do you rinse and then wash with standard 2 buckets???

Foam it, let sit until it coats the paint with a thin film.. Then rinse and re-wash with 1 bucket method or brush and foam again. It all depends on the condition.

You have given them a good reason not to trade that truck. I got to ask how many hours did that take you? I have a 2005 sittin in the garage I have been putting off for a year now.

About 12 with 3 people on it. The trash inside was un B lievable !!!

If it were clean, I would expect to spend no more than 4-5 hours on it.
 
Thanks for everyones compliments. The lady was literally jumping around "happy" when she seen the vehicle. I've never got that reaction, but we all know thats a job well done :)

The job I hated the most was the carpet and leather. It took me 3 times on the leather and 3 hours on the carpet working in sections !!!!!!!

WOW!!! Great turn around. Can you tell me more about this mix? People are coming up with some great mixes with 106. I've seen the RMG or VMG mixed with 106 before, but not this one.

I tried this mix by mixing it on the pad itself. Menz tells you not to, but I did anyway. I didn't get any dusting from this but when I mixed the two in the bottle the 101 settled out towards the bottom. I wish I had a dual compartment single squeeze bottle. I would be set for all the mixing I want.

Thanks for the info. :cheers:
 
Lucky for me ours isnt nearly that bad. I have the leather brush for the pc which I used on a beater and it cut down time. Once again great job.
 
You really know how to make something out of nothing. Great work and attention to detail.
 
Thanks for the compliments guys!! Much appreciated, but as you know without the help from everyone elses threads all my show and shines wouldn't be possible.

Did I mention this expy had 117,000 miles :)
 
Great job on the Expy! That interior is spotless, and awesome paint correction! Love the flakes and that last hood shot is unreal!
I used DG265 on my wife's car tires too. Looks good, but just have to see on durability.
