We've got some snow coming today so no details on the docket. May as well post a thread.
Hill City Auto Detail (VR8) teamed up with O.C. Detailing (adrock2003) for this job. A '98 Jeep that was in need of some serious cleaning! The initiative for the detail was to get it ready to sell.
The interior had not seen clean for many years! Sun had faded many of the plastic areas.
Pretty typical for a Jeep I think that the carpet has been wet/dried/wet/dried multiple times over its years. We didn't find a clean spot on this thing! Even under the carpets...
After washing (with a scrub brush) we saw we had quite the chore ahead of us with the paint as well.
Of course no one had touch the motor, except the mechanic, for years.
On to the "afters":
Motor was cleaned with Meg's Super Degreaser, Purple Power and APC. Meg's Hyper Dressing to finish.
Interior: Cleaned with 4:1 Meg's APC, Meg's Carpet and Upholstry Cleaner, carpet brush on a Porter Cable and a Mytee extractor.
Then we pulled it outside for some exterior shots.
Paint was corrected with Clay bar, Meguiar's #95, followed by Meg's #82 and a coat of NXT 2.0.
Nice ending to the story. The Jeep sold the next week!
