2006 Impala SS

[LuxuryMobile]

I was contacted by the owner of this 2006 Impala SS to take care of the swirls in the paint. After a full wash and clay bar treatment, the owner inspected the paint with me to decide on a package that would fit in his budget. Although there weren’t any swirls or buffer trails, it could have used a 2-3 step paint correction but that wasn’t the owner’s goal. We decided to clean up some of the oxidation using an all-in-one and then top it with a wax.
Process:
Wheels with Meg WB and Daytona Wheel brush, Wash, Full Clay, PCXP with flat orange pad and XMT360, then PCXP with black pad and Pinnacle Liquid Souveran.
Interior Process:
Meg APC on seats and door panels. Panels followed up with Meg #40, and seats with Wolfgang leather conditioner. Glass cleaned with Meg glass cleaner.

After the wash and clay, these were the best pictures I had that captured the oxidation on this vehicle:

Well I am sold on XMT360 now. That car looks amazing.

I am a really big fan of XMT360, it is really easy to use and always gives me better results than expected.
