This Chevy Trailblazer arrived in rough shape. It was full of swirls and lots of RIIDS. It even had the early signs of clear coat failure on the front bumper. The truck has lots of trim that was very faded. Customer was not to concern with correction since this is a DD and sits outside all the time. She just wanted to bring back some gloss and add some protection. So did one step polish and added some wax

Wheels- CG Diablo & Iron X
Tires-Zep Purple
Wash-CG honeydew & Dawn with Foam cannon
Clayed

Started with M205 on Green buff n shine pad. It did well cleaning up the paint but I knew I could get more improvement move up to white buff n shine with M205. I decided to go with white pad & M205.

Trim-Pearl
LSP-Collinite 845

Customer was very please about me being able to remove this. She had gone to the car wash a dozen times and they were not able to remove it. It was some type of sticky blue or something was not tar. Used tarminator and bug sponge and lots of elbow grease to remove

Good save! How long did it take you?
 
Good lord! Amazing results. Almost makes me wish I had a black car.
 
Thanks guys. I didn't realize how big trailblazers were till I did this truck. The taping of the trim was a PITA.
