    Thank you...I agree...I detailed a 2006 BMW 335i this weekend...The car was in decent condition. Just your average dirty car. It wasn't an extreme like this tC I did...although it takes A LOT more time to do these types of jobs. it's kinda the only jobs I want to do now...lol

    Thanks Marc! See you at the next TNOG!

    What did you use on the wheels to get rid of the brake dust? That stuff tends to be like glue.

    Gold Class Shampoo...lol. The brake dust wasn't as aggressive because it's just a standard brake system. On my Lexus IS F, the pads generate a TON of brake dust. My wheels can look like the Scion tC in a matter of 2 weeks of driving and the dust is super aggressive. If you don't clean it, it starts to eat at the powder coating of the rims.

    The sad part is that its actually probably true. Not long after, she moved to Chicago and had the car shipped there, but then recently, she moved to Portland, and drove the car there. It's probably a mess.
