2007 Chevy Tahoe. Customer wanted a full detail, minus any paint correction. This is my 3rd vehicle, 1st suv, since starting my detailing business.


Condition: There were tons of little micro rust spots all along the lower parts of the car, rear deck lid and front bumper. They took a long time to remove and had to be dealt with by using some unusual techniques. Interior had the typical spots hear and there and heavy foot traffic in the rear passenger seating aisle. Door jams were lined with dirt and grime. Rims were a faded chrome and had water spots and baked on brake dust in the rear. Areas around the tires had baked on tar and dirt.


Before Shots: I took pictures when I could, I was on a limited amount of time.

Very nice

Was the timely rust spots part of a detail? Any wax or just a wash?
 
Thanks everyone

The unusual technique was using opc as a qd for clcaying instead of my usual Mothers qd. The micro rust spots were impossible to remove with regular qd and clay.

I said I would clay, but I wasn't expecting the to put that much effort into removing all of those spots. I'm someone who wouldn't feel right leaving all of those there so away they went. Overall the paint didn't really need a clay, just the tiny spots all over and the road tar and grime behind the wheels.
 
Nice job:xyxthumbs:

How hard was the paint on those new chevys? I'm detailing a Chevy Colorado this week same color.
