Well this is the first car outside mine that I've done. Not sure what year it is but it was pretty bad. Alot worse than I would of liked! Spent roughly 12 hours on the thing. I think i should really invest in a rotary if I'm going to do more cars like these. Also another thing that killed me too is that I went over the car with the orange pad first then with the wool should of been the other way around. I got hard pressed on time didn't expect it to take this long.



Anyways here's what I used:

P21s Wheel Cleaner

P21s polishing soap

2 Coats poorboys wheel Sealant

Poorboys Trim restore



Muffler tips:

2000 grit wet sand

P21s polishing soap



Paint:

Riccardo spray with riccardo blue clay

PCXP 6" pads

Meguiars 4 on yellow

Meguiars 4 on wool

Zymol HD cleanse on orange

P21s Concours look wax



Engine:

Simple green degreaser

Poorboys Trim Restore



Glass:

Stoners Glass cleaner



Matts:

Kleenall APC diluted 1:1

Scotch guard Carpet Guard

Poorboys trim restore



Interior:

wow. excellent work on your first customers car. That thing really needed some TLC. I'm sure you will have many more jobs to come. Just make sure that you try and educate your client a little on the proper care of their vehicle so they don't just drive through the bristle wash and undo the awesome work you just did.
