  • SUV full detail because im car crazy

    SUV full detail. Well my uncle drove from Houston to San Antonio, TX to have me help him with his car that he let go for to long. He has never waxed it or claybar since he bought it like 5 or more years ago. Loving cars and detailing the way i do, not to menchon he is family. i did the job for $100 to make up for product usage and a little for me. I spent 19 hours straight on my days off working from 12am to 7pm the next day with only a 1 hr break so yea im a little sore right now . ok well i hope you enjoy. Sorry if any of the pics are a little dark. i started at night so thats when i took the before pics

      Exterior Process
      1. Wash ( NXT )
      2. Claybar ( Smooth Surface )
      3. 7006 w/ #85 ( rotary )
      4. 8006 w/ #83 ( rotary )
      5. 9006 w/ #82 ( rotary )
      6. ScratchX ( by hand, for behind the door handles )
      7. #7 ( by hand )
      8. NXT Gen Tech Wax 2.0 x2 ( by hand )
      9. Wheels ( Hot Shine Tire Foam followed by Hot Shine High Gloss Tire Gel

      Engine Bay Products Used
      APC
      Super Degreaser
      Hyper Dressing
      Turtle Wax ICE Polish ( due to its easy application and ability to go on just about everything i find it easy to use on the painted surfaces in the engine bay).

      Interior Products Used
      Quick Out ( spray and foam )
      APC
      GC Leather Conditioner
      Quick Interior Detailer
      NXT Tech Protect

      Ok i think thats about everything. So all products used were Meguiar's except 2

                    Now that's a project! The clean up on the seats is particularly impressive.

                          I left out the pics of the door handels where i used the scratchX and want to add them in. See the scratches behind the door handle, could not get back there with a rotory but scratchx by hand worked beautifully.
