2007 Chevy Tahoe

Got More Wax

New member
So, if you remember the white CKL Mercedes I posted a few weeks back - H.S> grad gift for a regular client's daughter. This is the car she drove and just parked once she got the Merc. So, the parents are selling it and wanted it cleaned up.



Didn't get many good pics as the day was hot and I was just wanting to get to it.



This car was put into service last summer and had never seen any waxing or interior detailing.



My process here was:



Two Bucket Wash with Adams Car Wash on MF Mitt

Meg Med Clay with ONR Solution for lube

One run of 105 on PWF

One run of 205 on Uber Polishing Pad

Two coats of Meg 2.0 Poly Sealant

Wheels got P21s with Swissvax and Daytona brushes

Tires got APC then Meg All Season Dressing

Glass the usual Stoners with MF

Carpet was air purged and vacuumed then APC, Folex and dry vapor

Interior panels got some heavy APC wipedown

Interior looks much better!

I removed a completely clogged air filter and dressed the engine

Well you did some magic on that one, looks like a different car now.. Sad that some people spoil their kids like that.. but it means more work for guys like you, which is good :)
 
Girls = trashed cars. Trust me I watch it first hand and then they have the balls to call men slobs? Please...



Great turn-around, man! :2thumbs:
 
Thanks for all the kind words, fellas!!



Yeah, this girls just destroys cars and thinks nothing of it. And, at 18, she's a heartbreaker. Probably gonna marry some guy to support her and keep her in euro cars for the rest of her life!?!?!?

Given the oppurtunity I would probably marry a girl that could keep in a new Corvette all the time. :lol
 
The last three are, yeah. The after interior, the exterior hadn't been washed yet. SO, if I'm gonna get grief for the jambs, they were cleaned with APC with Swissvax and Daytona brushes then sealed as well
