AIO on Nissan Altima

[HateSwirls]

So someone brought me a nasty Altima, when I say nasty I mean the car was dirty but when it came time to clay it that's when I had issues, not sure what was on it, could have been overspray so it took longer than normal.


She first just wanted it washed, clayed and sealed but when we inspected it together I showed her just how bad her paint was, swirls galore.
I tried selling her my two stepper but she wasn't ready for that bill right now. Lol
So I told her about my All in One package, she wanted that one but I told her some of the swirls would still be present and she understood that, I always educate my customers, that way they won't come back and say why do I still see swirls, etc.

Foamed it, the wheels, the barrels were horrible , thank God for the D-140 Wheel Brightener.

Two bucket method using Chemical Guys Maxi-Suds
Dried after using my leaf blower.
Clayed using my Handy Prep towel, God sent
Used my DA with the 5.5" Lake Country orange Flat pads with the Meguiar's D-151, worked OK but it really needed some Wolfgang Uber Compound, oh well.
Did a DP Rinse-Less wash
Coated the tires with the Turtle Wax Tire Coat Kit
Duragloss 951 on the wheels

Interior wasn't bad, didn't take before pics of it.

Groit's Interior Cleaner for everything including the leather.
Poorboys Leather Conditioner

Total time, 6 hours....

Wow I bet she was impressed! Those wheels are impressive.

Looks good. Great work. Maybe next time you might want to take her plate off or white out the area on the computer before taking pictures. Just my 2 cents but excellent job again.

As always amazing job well done that AIO really added some shine/gloss back into that paintwork

Nice save! Car looks 10 years younger after your work, very well done.

Thanks for sharing,

Kind Regards.

I used my PC DA, orange Flat Lake Country Pad ,orange and Meguiar's D-151.

Made three passes then moved on, no breaks.
My wife helped me with the interior as she normally does.

What made it go so fast and easy was I wasn't going after a 100% correction, really my goal was to make it look much better which it did:dblthumb2:

Looks great. Just curious why you washed after the aio? Dusting maybe?

Dusting but not from products, it's something I've always done, many years ago after compounding I'd wash the car once I was:done.
I do my best to work clean :dblthumb2:
