Well, I started out with a red BMW weekly wash Thursday night, so it wasn't completely black, but you saw pictures of it last week so I won't bother again.



First up Friday afternoon was a black H2 SUV. It was just an Express Detail, but it has some damage from the dealer prep, so the doors will need to be polished out sometime.



Process:



Simple Green 8:1 on wheels/tires/cladding

Eagle One Wet wash

Evercoat's Lubri-Shine QD

Armor All on tires (all 5)

IG on glass



(Sorry for dark pics)

Next was a black C6 Corvette on Saturday morning. These cars are really awesome! This one was in pretty good shape. The owner just wanted a good clean-up and some durable protection.



Process:



Simple Green 8:1 on wheels/tires/plastic trim

Eagle One Wet wash

Zaino Z18 clay

Klasse AIO (including wheels)

Zaino Z2 Pro w/ ZFX

Zaino Z16 on tires and trim

Mother's Mag on exhaust tips

Zaino leather cleaner and conditioner

Finally, Saturday afternoon, the owner of the C6 brought me his Denali. This is his everday work vehicle that gets taken through the automatic wash, so he wasn't too concerned with swirling, etc. He just wanted a good clean-up/base that he could maintain with NXT.

Saturday turned out to be an 11 hour day, and I was WORN OUT! But the owner of the Vette and Denali was pleased and I made some nice money, so I guess it was worth it (though frustrating at times).



Thanks for reading/viewing :)
 
Nice work Zane! Just like series1 mentioned..........That C6 is absolutely AWESOME!!! I love the first pic of the Z6. You captured the "bling" on the headlight cover and the rear rim. As for the 11 hour day you put in.............Hopefully you've got a bottle of Advil Liqui-gels in your arsenal! ( along with your favorite beverages )
 
how much for the details on average. say for the detail on the c6. if you dont mind me asking, i am trying to get an idea of what prices are acceptable. i know it depends on area but what about for you?
 
That's A LOT of black! :p And all look great :xyxthumbs



Looks like you're getting good use out of the versatile, inexpensive Simple Green. Careful about any clear plastic - it can cloud it.



That GNX is too cool :cool: I love that thing.
 
Zane-O, they ought to call you "The Man In Black" after detailing all of those vehicles! Excellent work!

Simple Green has always performed well for me. Thanks for the tip on clear plastic.



Unfortunately, the GNX isnt' mine. The GNX and the H2s belong to my girlfriend's father (a part of his "fleet"). :cool:



I appreciate the great comments!
