Volvo XC90
This detail was a birthday present for my customer from her husband. Her SUV has not really been taken care of at all. It just turned 50,000 miles it is mostly used to run the kids around town and it’s also her workhorse for her gardening supplies.
This was a full detail and boy it was in need of one! Unfortunately my camera broke right at the start of this detail. I was able to get one “before” shot and that was it. My customer was gracious enough to let me use her camera for the after shots. I didn’t take too many pics because she was going to e-mail them to me and I didn’t want to put her out. Besides she would have thought I was a bit of a Geek if she saw how many pics I normally take. I’m kicking myself because I had my phone with me but didn’t even think to use it for pics. Duh!

I had a chance to use the Surf City Voodoo leather rejuvenator in this SUV. Here is my initial take on it. The seats had seen better days but they weren’t awful so I went to work on them with Voodoo. The product is very creamy and goes on smoothly. It reminded me a lot of Pinnacle Leather Cleaner and Conditioner which is what I’ve been using all along. Voodoo was not oily or greasy at all and it has a nice leather scent to it. It did a very nice job of cleaning the seats and after buffing it off the seats were soft to the touch and not tacky or oily. I liked this product after its initial use and will continue to use it. My customer commented on how good the seats looked and she loved the scent too.
