I worked on the car at a shop the car was having work done at. For client confidentiality reasons, I cannot say where the shop is located or any info about the client. :)



I wish I could have gotten better pics but the owner was nice enough to rol the car out for me and i didnt want to keep him around as he was busy.
 
Thanks for the compliments...as for details... I polished the grill with one finger haha, the door sills which I forgot to take pics of, any and ALL chrome on the exterior, and even the metal finish on the steering wheel.

I used Leatherque conditioner on the seats. I didnt let it sit and heat in the sun because the leather is practically new. Then pristine clean which also leaves behind some protection. This method is how Leatherique twins are supposed to be used according to the manufacture. I like them a lot. It really depends on the type of leather and condition. I usually use Lexol Cleaner and Zaino Leather in a bottle. Each product has its own use and application.
 
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



That's just awesome. You should feel very proud of your work.
 
Beautiful work Chris. Gorgeous car as well. :bow



A tip for you audiophiles...Flitz is a stellar product for cleaning connections on wire and AC prongs.
