Clean Dean
Keep it clean !!!
Detailed this 2005 Ford Expedition yesterday, and the owner informed me that it had not been detailed it since was purchased. He really wanted the most attention spent on the interior, so I went to town with my Eurosteam 1900, and had to refill the tank twice.
Here is what I was faced with:
The leather was cleaned with a 20:1 solution of Meguiars APC and steam.
Some after pics from the process:
Exterior is pretty much what you would expect from a 4 year daily driver, except that the wheels were really nasty. Had to resort to a strong acid based cleaner and some 0000 steel wool to bring them up to standard. Paint was buffed with Menzerna SIP and then 3M Ultrafina and the hand waxed with Collinie’s #885 Fleetwax. Some fairly heavy scratches had to be wet sanded with 2000 grit, but luckily they were still in the clear.
Owner was real happy, and I slept real well last night.
