I as a customer's residence last week when I told that her son was coming in from a business trip. She wanted to get his Jag detailed for him. She told me it was pretty clean but he did keep a little dog with him in it while traveling. Great. At least it was just a car and not a full sized SUV!
Here's the process:
Wash, Wheel, and Tires
Washed and clayed with Poorboy's Super Slick & Suds.
(Used wash ShMitt and Meguiar's Clay)
I'm so glad I found out about this wash! So many suds! The ShMitt just glided over the car as did the clay.
Cleaned wheels with Wheel ShMitt and Meguiar's Wheel Brightner
(Used rubber gloves and WB was cut 4:1)
Paint Polishng & Protection
Pinnacle Advanced Swirl Remover
(Used EDGE2K Yellow Cutting Pad at a #6 PC Setting)
Boy this thing was scratched. I believe that 75% of the car was resprayed as well. Lots of sanding marks under the paint. Oh well, I can only do what I can do.
Here's a half & half shot.....
ASR did pretty well considering. I had to use lot's of pressure with the PC. I can't wait till I'm more comfortable with the rotary.
Pinnacle Final Finishing Polish
(Used EDGE2K Orange Polishing Pad at a #5 PC Setting)
I wanted to really amp up and remove any more possible swirls so I chose a middle step on this one. I didn't use much pressure and moved alot faster than I did for swirl removing. All I wanted to do was just "amp" up the polished finish. FFP did this. No dusting and came off easy. Took out any marring that was left previously. I can see myself using this for LSP prepping on new cars.
Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax
(Applie by hand with foam applicator pad)
Well, it says it's good on dark colors so here was Souv's chance. Holy crap! The entire car looke like molten green liquid. It added so much depth that I waited 15 minutes after taking off the first coat and added a second! Glad I did. So easy to use. I applied and removed two coats in under 45 minutes. Used very little product too. I'm so glad I have tried this king of waxes.
Other Products Used:
DP Total Interior Cleaner
(Used on the leather and plastic surfaces with a new Wheel ShMitt. WOW! Just look.)
Foaming up....
DP Interior Protectant
(Applied with MF Mitt to all plastic surfaces)
Wolfgang Leather Conditioner
(Applied to all leather surfaces with MF covered applicator. An awesome conditioner. Smells like new leather.)
DP Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner
(Sprayed on clean carpets, agitated and extracted with MF towel and vacuum.)
Eagle One Tire Shine
(Another sample for me to try. The spray was very controllable and looked good. Dried to the touch in about 30 minutes. If you like shiny tires, this is good stuff. This customer does.)
DP Krystal Vision Glass Cleaner
***All interior wood trim was treated with Souveran Paste Wax***
Befores.....
Some exteriors. Lighting was real bad.
After one pass of ASR...
