2004 Ford F-150 Lariat 4x4, 56k miles
Client wanted a full interior detail, and a good cleanup and some protection on the exterior.
Her main concern was with the leather.
Some befores:






I washed the wheels, tires, wells, and running boards with Deep Crystal Car Wash,Super Degreaser, and Wheel Brightener.
I also rinsed the mud out of the frame and undercarriage.





I washed the truck with Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner, lower areas were treated with Body Solvent and a bug sponge along with soap and water.



looks better just after properly washing it:

I dried it with some Water Magnets, then started working on the interior.
I pulled the mats out, then took these photos:
The carpet has some stains:



I dry brushed, then vacummed the carpet. I then started by cleaning all the hard surfaces with All Purpose Cleaner, cotton towels, and various brushes.
Here is a 50/50 of the leather:




The carpet was cleaned with All Purpose Cleaner, warm water, and a carpet brush. I extracted with my shop vac, water, and cotton towels:



I dressed the interior with Quik Interior Detailer, the door jambs were cleaned with All Purpose Cleaner, glass was cleaned with Glass Cleaner Concentrate at 10:1.









I then went ahead and started the exterior.
I clayed the paint and chrome with Detailing Clay (Mild) and Last Touch Spray Detailer at 1:1.
I then applied #66 - Quick Detailer (Cleaner/Wax) with my G110, and several W8207 pads. I sealed the roof and wheels by hand with #20 - Polymer Sealant.
I topped that with my 70/30 mix of #135 - Synthetic Spray Detailer and Ultimate Quik Wax.
Tires and trim were dressed liberally with #40 - Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner, wells dressed with Hyper-Dressing at 2:1.
Glass was cleaned with Glass Cleaner Concentrate at 10:1, the chrome running boards were wiped down with it as well.








It was raining the entire time of the detail, but here are a few after pictures outside:


On my way to deliver the truck:

lower panels beaded up nicely:
