GOT PREP?
***This will take a litle while for me to post becasue of the limitations on images, so just give me a minute or two***



This was a pretty busy weekend for me�an all-nighter combined with a few “all-dayers� really tested by body. I made it though---with help. :D



The first vehicle was a huge, black Hummer H2�this guy drove in from Jackson, TN to have his truck detailed. Josh @Extreme referred this gentleman to me�THANKS Josh!



The truck has seen its fair share of off-road duty, but the interior was fairly clean. The outside needed a bit more help…..it took about 3.5 hours to wash and clay this monster.

Next up was another huge black vehicle�this time, a dually. I had forgotten how large these trucks are�lots of real estate to deal with.



The owner of this truck drove in Nashville to have his truck detailed. Very nice couple, they toured the city while I detailed their truck.



The paint was rough�very heavily marred. The interior also had issues�the previous smoked in the truck�a lot. I had to do a bit of odor removal, but it came out great.

Degrease/dress engine (Hyper dressing 4:1)



Buff with Hi-Temp Extreme Cut/Optimum polish

Zaino Z5PRO (zfx)



Tires dressed with Meguiars All-Season dressing



The interior was a little different. After steaming every surface in the truck, we used an odor eliminating carpet cleaner on all upholstery (including the headliner), then extracted with hot water. We then steamed the vents for from the external intake, the interior return, as well as the actual vents on the dash. After steaming them we fogged them with a product by Dakota called “non-smoke.� The interior was also dressed with Meguiars #40.



This was after washing:

These were the only pics that turned out—it was dark by the time we finished.

How about this for a pic that shows nothing? Sorry, it was just too dark.

You know something, most times products look a lot different in person than they do in pictures, but the pics showing the tires dressed, is exactly how Meguiars Hyper Dressing looks in person once dried and setup.
