2001 Harley Electra Glide Classic.
This was a maintenence detail, I usually see the bike two or three times a year.
The bike was washed with six oz of Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner in my foam gun and agitated with a Meguiars wash mitt.
The wheels and tires were scrubbed with the leftover solution and a small brush was used to clean the tires.
I then dried it with some Water Magnets and spent twenty minutes using compressed air to blow out all the water from the many cracks and crevices.
Here is the condition of the paint after washing, the owner does a good job taking care of it himself actually.



I then clayed all the painted and chrome surfaces with Detailing Clay (Mild). Some areas were spot polished with either SwirlX or #205 - Ultra Finishing Polish by hand and with my PC.
The bike was sealed with several coats of #20 - Polymer Sealant and a couple applications of the very last of my Ultimate Quik Wax.











=========================
2003 Volkswagon Jetta, 34k miles.
Client had me wash/seal his Jetta while I was there taking care of the bike.
It had a thick film of dirt on it.

I sprayed the wheels, tires, and wells down with All Purpose Cleaner Plus at 4:1, then foamed them up with 5oz of Deep Crystal Car Wash in my foam gun, agitated, then rinsed.
I forgot to bring my Body Solvent but had some cheap OTC bug/tar remover in my toolbox and sprayed that along the front and lower ends of the vehicle.


After washing the wheels, tires, and wells I scrubbed the lower and front ends of the vehicle with a bug sponge and my wash solution.
I only scrubbed up to the body colored molding:

The complete body was then foamed with 5oz of Deep Crystal Car Wash and a couple oz of Ultimate Wash and Wax.
I agitated with several Meguiars wash mitts and then gave the vehicle a final rinse, pulled it into the client's garage, then dried with several Water Magnets.


Looks much better after properly washing it:

I did several applications of Synthetic X-Press Spray Wax to the paint and wheels.
The main part of the jambs were wiped out.
The tires and wells were dressed with #40 - Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner.
All glass was wiped clean and streak free with Glass Cleaner Concentrate at 10:1.
