This is a detail I did for a neighbor that lives in my subdivision. I'm thinking they've never cleaned the wheels on this thing, so that took me the better part of an hour to get them in a semi-clean state. They pitted from the amount of brake dust and time allowed to sit, but I was able to scrub them back from the dead. This was only a wash/wipedown and interior vacuum.

I didn't take pics of the interior because it had coffee stains that she wanted to wait to get the full clean.......not sure why, but she just wanted it cleaned up for a trip.......I just couldn't take pics and be proud of that...so here we go.



Process;

Wheels-

P21 Wheel Cleaner scrubbed with multiple brushes.

washed with leftover wash bucket soap



Exterior -

Washed with Megs NXT Car wash

Clayed front, roof, and rocker panels

Dried with the Guzzler

Wiped down with Blackfire carnuba spray wax

Windows cleaned with Stoners



Interior-

vacuum and clean up coffee stains on plastic with APC

Leather wiped with Lexol Conditioner.



The wheels and claying the front end took the majority of the time, but it turned out ok. She was very happy. About 3 hours worth....damn I'm slow.





Before and afters...













































Thanks for looking....

Nice job man! It takes some real dedication to get rims like that with P21S.



Where's Trinity at? Are you coming to Detailfest?

Thanks everybody for the kind words......yeah...those rims were tough. I think I used 6 different brushes to get them to look the way I wanted......or at least near what I wanted.





timmah....I'm located near Tampa Bay....just a bit north. (New Port Richey)

I was going to try to make it this year, but it ended up I had a prior engagement. I am definitely going to try to make it to one of the future shows.:xyxthumbs

I need to go to learn some new tricks!!
 
Yes indeed, so how you been doing? I'm doing OK like always . Hope you could make it to DFIII this yr, if not then maybe next yr for sure!........Angelo

You forgot to remove that hideous front plate...

I was just getting ready to say the same...nothing make a car look more crappy than a front plate and wheel weights that are on the outside of the rim (I always get tape weights!)
