Mileage: Mileage Unsure (Over 20k)
This belongs to a regular client of mine. After the last detail, I had recommended a 2 step correction of the paint for this detail and I booked him for a full day’s worth of work. Also, he and his wife own a pair of Jack Russell Terriers that travel in this vehicle, so there is always a good amount of dog grooming to be done.
Well, after I washed and clayed the car I realized one thing….this is in great shape. Very minimal swirls and other paint concerns (other than the bird bomb I found when checking it in etched itself in) and no dog hair! I don’t know what happened to their dogs, but the interior was in really good shape.
SO…..a 10 hour detail turned into 4. I didn’t see the point of taking off clear yet (especially on white) and it allowed me to spend more of my focus on finer points like the engine and side steps.
