  • 10' Camaro SS, F-350

    2010 Chevy Camaro SS, 496 miles.

    Client drove it to Indiana and back last week, ended up getting pretty dirty.

    I polished it out a little less than a year ago with M205, then sealed it with several coats of NXT.

    A few befores.








    I washed the wheels, tires, and wells with Deep Crystal Car Wash and various brushes.






    I needed to be careful not to marr the paint when washing, it was extremely dusty and there was some dirt and light tar on the lower fenders.

    There was also bug splatter all over the front end, I did not want to use BS.

    First thing I did was just rinse the car down really well for about ten minutes.

    I then washed the Camaro with Ultimate Wash and Wax and several different wash mitts and a bug sponge.








    I pulled it in the garage, then dried it with some Water Magnets.

    I dried the engine and all the door and trunk jambs with a clean SS.

    I did a vac on the interior and wiped it down with Quik Interior Detailer.










    I applied some #21 - Synthetic Sealant 2.0 by hand, tires/fenderwells dressed with Hyper-Dressing at 2:1. Glass was cleaned with Glass Cleaner Concentrate at 10:1.



























    Took two more shots the next day....






    ====================================


    2005 Ford F-350 Harley truck, 16k miles.

    Same process as the Camaro for the most part.

    Awesome work as usual! You have a 7+ car garage at your house?? Or is that some type of auto shop / storage?

              Both vehicles look great as usual. What does this guy do for a living that he has so many new cars and trucks to play with. I'm also curious how he's only put 496 miles on the Camaro in close to a year. Normal commuting for me is close to that every 4 days.

                  Easy, don't drive it. You can't put miles on a car if it doesn't get driven. A friend of mine has one of the new Challengers and hasn't put 1,000 miles on it in the 1.5 years he's had it. Why? Because it sits in the garage.

                        Its not a daily driver, it only had six miles on it before it was taken on a trip.

                          That truck looks awesome.

                          Hey Nick, got a question, where do you buy bug sponges? I couldn't find it in our stores, especially the ones that don't scratch the bumpers or doors when you use it?

                          Thanks

                              Oh, I should go check it out. Thank you

                              Btw does it make light scratches when you use it? I know some do.
