Blackish Car Smack down coming at you! enjoy! All of these cars were polished with BF SRC finishing polish my Rupes21 and my Dewalt849x. LSP was Black Ice on them. Interiors were done with a combo of little brushes apc, and leather treatment. Carpets were extracted with a MyTee extractor. I will say the focus on these cars was just to get them really clean. No one wanted perfect paint but they wanted better. Check it out!
Well this obviously lives under pine trees and probably isn't safe to drive at night. I doubt much light is escaping.
So I started with the head lights. Using 600,1000,1500,3000. Cut/polish seal.
The car was overwhelmed with tears of joy since it could now see again!
Now time to wash it up. When detailing a car these are things that make the biggest difference IMO. Stuff like Jambs need to be 100% clean as they can get. 90% of my customers don't know and can't see the difference between a a car I one stepped or one I did 3 steps and jeweled. But they know what dirt in a jamb is.
Every jamb on this truck had to hit with APC and an assortment of little brushes to get them right this alone took me almost 2 hours because they were sooooo bad. Pressure washer wasn't touching the years of caked on grime with out some heavy agitation first.
To the wheels
Some Megs wheel bright was in order to get the barrels with out pulling the wheels. Faces came clean no problem with with soap and brush.
4 hours later I can wash it! 2x2 method being used with APC and wash shampoo mixed. Later I had to go back and remove a ton of tree sap with lacquer thinner and re wash the car. Didn't see it till I got up on the roof(opps)
After washing and Decon you can see some etchings left over from the sap along with true condition of the paint.
Interior was as expected. Here is my test spot on the leather to see how clean it would get.
Some APC and brush I started getting all the nit pick stuff
My little brother wash polishing the out side while was doing the interior. I lost a coin flip so I got stuck cleaning the mom mobile!
Fast forward to the next day(all in we had about 12 man hours into this car)
Not perfect but customer was in total shock when she saw it.
The lights being done made this thing look 5 years newer!
One Blackish car down! Sorry no finished interior picks I forgot to take them. But it was dialed!
