This customer has been a really good customer of mine as of late and he wanted this beast cleaned up before his wife took a trip in it this week. Of course when I first inspected it, it wasnt in full sun, so it looked like it was going to be light polish. He didnt want to go extreme just wanted what could be seen cleaned up.



Boy was I wrong. Process:

Tires were cleaned with Eagle 1 A2Z

Wheels cleaned with Valugard Custom wheel cleaner

2 foamings of CG citrus wash and gloss

Clayed with Meguiars Mild

Roof was taken care of with Zaino AIO

Sides were taken care of with g110v2+ 3" and 6" microfiber pads with 50% d300 and 50% M105

Followed by 5.5" Tangerine pads with M205

Sealed with Blackfire wet diamond

Tires coated with zaino z16



Not many before shots and none outside:

Nice! Just too bad that trim around the windows is such a PITA to get looking good once it's weathered like that.



Ya I have tried to repair those before, but aside from hitting it with sand paper and spending even more time and money on this thing, i dont think he was willing. For 141k though this thing still looks good.

Looks great!! How do you find the cut mixing the MF polish with 105?



The cut is awesome. What I also like to do is lightly mist the surface and create a small slurry (trick i learned from Gmblack3) as it likes to grab just a little more and cut just a little more.



Thanks everyone
