First one in today is a 2005 Audi A4 with a shedding problem! lol... (honestly I have seen much more but the customer stated that her car was "EXCESSIVELY COATED" in her dog's hair...)

First to the before pics she stated that she has not washed the car since the last snow! (about 4 months ago!!!!!) she also said that she has never cleaned the wheels and tires... (honestly they weren't that bad for "never" being cleaned...)

All and all not too bad... (I decided to extract the floor mats for her for free just because. She only got the "quick maint" clean aka a level one. Wait and see the afters)
 
And the afters:

Now on to the 80's Jeep Cherokee interior only for a friend...
 
Awesome job, man.

What did you use to clean up the wheels? They were pretty bad...
 
DP Wheel Gel and some Auto Bath Shampoo... Spray the gel on let it dwell for about 10 min (only in cooler not sunny weather or it bakes into the wheel) take a wheel brush and a small bucket fill with hot water and about .5 oz of Auto Bath give it a quick scrub and rinse...

If that is not aggressive enough (these cleaned right up with the above method) then I use some degreaser or apc... and a coarse brush...
 
Man nice turn around. She must have been happy you were able to remove the scratch.

I don't know yet... She hasn't picked it up yet... The scratch is not gone but there is much less of one there now...
 
Well I can't even see it in the picture, so it has to be pretty good. Its greatly improved and I think that's what most non-detailer/ non-ocd people are looking for.
 
It came out pretty good except the deep scratches... I hit those with some black enamel paint on a q tip let it dry then hit it with the PE14-2 and a orange pad with WTSR then a crimson pad and WFG... Customer just picked up and LOVED IT!!!!!!
 
Good turn out. What products did you use? How was the clear coat? I have an 07 audi a4 i'm about to do.
 
I used the WG Twins an orange pad to cut and a crimson pad to polish
 
So I came in this morning to the shop and there was a message on the phone...

"Hey Chris this is Karen; You know the one with the A4 that had a separate dog in the car. So I got home yesterday after picking up my car and parked on the street because I had some guys painting my house. Well I came out to my car to go to work this morning and low and behold there was house paint all over my car! Not like they dumped buckets on it but little off white specks coating the majority of the car! Could you type up an estimate to get that junk off? Man first I had a dog hair interior on my Audi now I have an Audi with zits! Please help! I will be submitting the estimate you work up to the house painters once I get it. Thanks Karen."

I laughed at the candid message but now am writing up an estimate... I will be claying the car, minor SMR then polishing and topping with Col 845... What do you think?

Get on that quickly! The faster you get at it, the easier it will be to correct. Your estimate should reflect that.
BTW, I usually don't comment on your threads b/c I can never see the pics while at work.

Sure you can't Richy... lol... I know I have done a lot of house paint corrections... For some reason the painters out here get overspray on everything! Idiots! It will be easy to get off as I applied Col 845 yesterday so no huge rush but yeah i figure it will pretty much pop off pretty easy because of the fresh Col...

Sure will be a great test for Collinite, LOL....you should shoot some pics and send them to Colli, if they come off easily. The reason with the pics is you probably link them with an https extension, which is blocked at work.
