One of my clients called the morning of valentines and wanted a full detail. well, as you will see, i didn't know what i was gettin myself into. She bought it from a used dealership with 28,000 miles. she was concerned from the start with the paint, but the dealer told her, "hey don't worry about, it will be corrected with a GOOD WASH!!!" well, after a wash, we knew that wasn't true. so here is goes.

SONUS SFX2, white pad via pc/5

Nice Job! I can't believe a dealer would give her a dirty car then tell her a bunch of crap. Women get no respect sometimes.
 
awesome!



Now remove that sticker from the back... that dealer obviously doesn't deserve to advertise, lol
 
get the PG man,...would have been left with just a little haze, even with a PC....i do it on cars like what you have there...works like a charm...

its ridiculous, i really don't know what anyone could have done to make it that bad, any ideas. :confused: just a little bit of info, i was lookin on that same lot not to long ago and there was a really super clean 04' black z71 from about 200 yards. the closer i got, the more unclean it got. it actually started looking a different color. come to find out, the """"DETAILER""" covered the whole truck..THE ENTIRE TRUCK..even the windows, with tire shine, believe it or not, the whole truck was a rainbow of oil!! just some food for thought.

PG?? don't quite know what that is.
 
SLK, red, underpaid for the detail, has good wheels, black interior, crooked lines on the carpet, swirl free, ugly guy owns the truck in the background! haha! Good job Wes, solid work

was at a local dealership a couple weeks ago looking at a few cars my sister was interested in,became distracted with a BRAND NEW black 2007 Cadillac DTS (46 miles!)with absolutely the worst swirls and buffer holograms I have ever seen in my life.I asked the salesman if their shop "detailed" that particular car and he said yes,and that they had the best detail crew in the local area





he was oblivious as to why I was so amused

It isn't just women, they do that to everyone.



Excellent turnaround! The paint look very defect free, especially for how bad it was to start. :)
 
Nice people? I don't get how people get let it get to that level. When you spend that much money on a new toy or whatevery you think you would keep it up. Nice work i love the shine on that baby!
