  • Expedition, Suburban, Landrover LR2, Grand Cherokee, Trailblazer

    2004 Ford Expedition.

    I usually do this truck once a year since the owner only uses it a couple times a year for traveling & such. The truck is in pretty good shape overall with minimal wear & tear.

    Afters only.

    Foamed & washed with Super Soap.
    Clayed with mild blue clay & ONR.
    Waxed/sealed with #20 - Polymer Sealant.
    Tires/wells dressed with #40 - Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner.
    Glass cleaned inside/out with Glass Cleaner Concentrate 10:1.
    Interior vac/wipedown.
    Jambs cleaned with ONR.















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

    2010 Chevy Suburban.

    The owner has me wash & detail this one about once a month due to the fact that it gets very dirty very quick. It gets driven to the client's junkyards in various states.

    The truck is not in good shape defect wise but the owner usually trades it in every couple years and just has me keep it clean.

    It was pretty dirty this time:










    Same process as the Expedition with the exception of no clay & the replacement of Synthetic X-Press Spray Wax.

    Afters:









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

    2008 Landrover LR2.

    Client was taking it in for trade in after I finished detailing it.

    I usually see this vehicle 4-5 times a year since its not convienent for me to wash & maintain it.

    Just a one step & the interior detailed.

    This is probably the last time you will see this one, I guess they are buying the same thing but in white.

    Befores:










    Foamed & washed with Super Soap.
    Clayed with mild blue clay & ONR.
    Waxed/sealed with D301 Finishing Wax.
    Tires/wells dressed with Hyper-Dressing 2:1.
    Glass cleaned inside/out with Glass Cleaner Concentrate 10:1.

    During the wash:



    Afters:





    Nothing I can do about the wheels peeling.


















    The interior was not too bad for the most part but there were spots were the baby spilled milk & and left an odor.

    Vacumm/dry brush/vacumm.
    Leather & vinyl cleaned with Gold Class Leather & Vinyl Cleaner.
    Protected with Quik Interior Detailer.
    Rubber mats cleaned with soap & water.
    Door/trunk jambs cleaned with ONR.
    Carpeting & headliner recieved several mists of Car Odor Eliminator.











    I forgot to get pics of the drivers area, sorry.

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

    2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

    Just an application of Synthetic X-Press Spray Wax after a Super Soap foam gun wash.






















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

    2005 Chevy Trailblazer.

    This belongs to a manager at the local bank.

    The client just wanted it pretty much washed & waxed plus the interior cleaned.

    Befores:



    Foamed & washed with Super Soap.
    Clayed while wet with ONR & blue mild clay.
    All tar removed with Tarminator.
    Waxed/sealed with D301 Finishing Wax via PC7424XP.
    Tires/trim dressed with #40 - Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner.
    Glass cleaned inside & out with Glass Cleaner Concentrate 10:1.
    All chrome trim was polished with Hot Rims Chrome Polish.


    During the wash:





















    The interior was not in real bad shape but needed some love.

    Vacumm/dry brush/vacumm
    Carpet & seats shampooed with 3D Carpet Shampoo.
    The mats were pressure washed & shampooed with 3D as well.
    Vinyl cleaned with All Purpose Cleaner & Quik Interior Detailer.
    Door/trunk jambs cleaned with ONR.

    One before, the dog sits here I was told:



    After:

      Great job as always Nick!!! You do a fantastic job in each detail! Each car comes out looking great!

      How are you liking the x-press synthetic spray wax? I just received my gallon and have yet to use it. Any tips you can give me? Also, what dispenser bottle are you using? It bugs me that I can't buy a corresponding bottle right now lol!

                I like the Syn X-Press a lot, I put it in my old UQW bottles.

                This is it for the most part.

                I do some side work though cleaning up/picking up trash at home construction sites as well.

                I love getting my hands dirty & feeling tired after a hard days work for sure.

                      Nick, it's obvious from your photographs you go above and beyond. Your repeat clients also speak volumes.


                      I saw the sun today. At least it seemed like something I remember as the sun. Did it peek out in Chicago too?
