I was called to detail and correct what the body shop did wrong.....which was a lot. There were sanding marks, polish EVERYWHERE, filthy interior and red over spray on the entire car. This thing was bad. I had to spend 11 hours between two days to get this thing back to what it should be.
The interior was dusted, vacuumed, dressed with Cockpit Premium, the leather was cleaned and conditioned with Z9/Z10 windows cleaned with water.
Exterior was washed with Dawn, and then sprayed down with Iron X to dwell. After I foamed with a combination of IPA, Dawn, and Optimum car wash. I used that as a lube to clay with. I lost track of how much time I spent on claying, the over spray was ridiculous. Most panels had to be clayed 4-5 times and the glass twice. Once the car was clayed I re washed with 1Z Perls and then dried. The rest of the time(HOURS) was spent removing old polish from all the cracks, trim, and door jambs. When I finished with all of that, I realized I didn't clay the wheels, so I had to spend about an hour claying the wheels and calipers. The calipers didn't come clean, so they are going to have to re paint. The body shop is paying for all of this.
That was all done on Monday, today I went back to polish with SIP and white LC with the 3401. After all the holograms and light sanding marks were removed I took the car out and foamed down with the same concoction used for the lube. I let that sit a minute and then sprayed IPA/Dawn mix. After a minute or two I washed with Dawn once more and dried. I then brought the car in and cleaned the trim with Pre Wow, then applied Black Wow. After that I applied Opti Guard to the paint, headlights and tail lights. Tires were dressed with Optimum Tire Shine.
