I got this job off a referral doing the guys car that owns the carwash where i get my water for my tank. anyway, I start doing this car in the garage after washing it and i notice a 7424 on the dude's cabinet. then some griots bottles everywhere, so i go explore the cabinets and he's got a whole collection of Griots supplies. I was like WHOA!!! but the guy owns an infiniti car, real nice.... black. he's a doc of course. anyway, i was going to go with LS, but haven't touched the NTS7 wax since the BMW so I figured I'd give it another shot and well worth it.

No before pics on body cause it wasn't that dirty, only on wheels and the exhaust pipe, but the inside was pretty nasty. They have 3 young kids!

RL shampoo wax via foam cannon
yellow/white schmitt, grit guard bucket

You only used QD on the rims, or did you use the RL chrome polish on those too?

The wheels always look great on the cars you do! What is RL again?
 
Man I really like the work you do Dust. The interior an exterior looks great always, but the windshield is new, I mean I've seen you post before about fixing the windshield bu that's wicked. You my friend live up to the Pro tittle, keep up the wicked details you do.

As always, I enjoy seeing your posts.

Brother most of the time I only use QD on the wheels. RL is Rightlook. Their QD comes in a gallon concentrate and its a 1:1. Only time I can't get away with QD is if it's polished aluminum that hasn't been polished in a while or chrome that hasn't been polished. other than that its QD.

Metabo is a wicked tool, I enjoy it every time I use it. Rotary's are incredable machines Dust. I'm sure you will pick it up easy my friend, just have to be carefull with it and pay attention, things that I'm sure you already do.

Makita is good too, I really liked the triger, works really nice and I can see why people enjoy the triger.

Man when you get your rotary and get the hang of it your going to love it Dust, it will make detailing so easy and you will love the ability to do all paint corrections :righton:

Very nice.

I second the rotary!! I only wish AG offered the Metabo when I ordered the Makita...figures, stupid 15% off coupon codes!
 
So how are you liking Tarminator? Is it aiding to your cleaning process a lot or can you live without it?

I've used it before and really liked it.

Nice work as always.

Tarm is good stuff, always looking for better alternative. I got a sample of Bug Squash that I have yet to try out. After I rinse I spray it on, then cover it in foam, set for a minute or two, then have at it.
 
Great job as always, Champion! Your interior work is always tops. SUV looks great.
Was it difficult to remove NTS7 in the sun? Did you let it haze, or just WOWO?
 
I love your work Dust ;) Love it! The rims are sweet!
 
That is just gorgeous, look at the shine on those wheels!

i did the wax in the garage. there ain't no way im testing stuff like that out on a cust job. i find out if products are sun friendly by testing on my own vehicles.
