Here is the next one, 09 I believe 2500HD. This sucker was big! Got the same treatment as the above truck, but more time on interior since it needed some more work in there.


Completion time: ~6 hours

-Leather deep cleaned
-Leather conditioned
-All carpets and mats shampooed and Extracted with 210* hot water extactor

A ton of leather cleaner, many microfiber towels, and a hot water extractor, and these are the results.

Thanks for checkin it out!!
 
Thanks for sharing. I love a nice Trans Am! Nice work on the truck wells and the pipes!
 
Fantastic work all around! That 2500 looks especially clean, I don't think I've ever seen a truck so clean all around. :xyxthumbs:
 
What was the process/products used to polish the exhaust on the trucks?
 
Great work.

I enjoyed the interior pics on the BMW, what a turn around.

What did you use on the wheel wells/tires on the 2500? My Dad has an F250 crew cab and I just cringe when he starts talking about detailing it. LOL
 
Cars/trucks look great! What did you use to dress the wheel wells on the trucks?
 
The Trans Am is badass
What did you use on the wheel wells of the Sierra? They come out looking brand new!
 
Yes I agree. That 2500 came out like new. Besides the wax on the metal of the wheel well, what was the process on the other areas in there?

I think like 3 people beat you to that question lol.



For all that asked, the exhaust tips were polished with an old staple... Mothers Aluminum and Mag polish with #0000 steel wool.

The inner fenders on the front of the 2500HD were treated Meguiars Professional Line Water-based Hyper Dressing.

Thanks everyone!

What dilution ratio for the hyper dressing?
 
:laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing:


Classic!



I'm embarrassed to say that I actually used to really like the looks of those Trans Am's. Not so much any more.
