No befores on any of them, were just basic washes except the truck at the end.
First up is my neighbor's A6.
Basic wash with meg's deep gems, wheels cleaned with armor all foaming wheel cleaner, tires cleaned with bleche white and dressed with meguiar's endurance tire gel after wash
Second was my stepdad's '99 Astro and our 2001 Forest River Shamrock 25' Camper. we recently were selling our camper and to speed up selling / get some free advertisement, we parked it at my grandma's place along a major road in this area. It paid off and it sold under a week after we parked the trailer there. I had always wanted to get pictures of the van towing the camper down the road and I figured it was the last shot I had at doing it.. so it might as well look pretty.
Van was washed / cleaned with basically the same process as the A6 above, with the exception of a lot of bug and tar remover being used on the lower body and bumpers. I don't recall what the camper was done with as my stepdad had the chemicals we used HOWEVER I didn't look at the packaging. It was some special stuff for the fiberglass.
And lastly (for now) , (backstory behind owner of car) .. was my dad's best friend when they were growing up, multiple times they'd gone out and bought matching or damn near matching cars.. camaros, trucks, etc while growing up. my pops passed in '96 but i kept the car love going on. This guy is 10x fussier about his cars than I am.. I spent a day and a half working on his truck. Needless to say.. he was impressed and asked me to print off some brochures/business cards and he'd bring me business. I've really only done this as a hobby until now.. thinking about making a business out of it.
I haven't done a black truck in a long time and I was in autozone days before the detail took place , and saw the turtle wax black box. My friends have used it on their black cars and had stellar results.. figured I'd try it for myself on this since my car is white.. can't really do that on mine! Worked very well.. made a large improvement in the finish. The owner asked that the interior remain left alone since he keeps it very clean inside.. so I didn't touch it.
Washed with palmolive dish soap, clayed, washed with dish soap again, hit with pre-wax cleaner, washed, then a blend of black carnauba wax which was included in the turtle wax black box.
