Hey guys!
This past Wednesday I met with a new customer that wanted to have their car detailed as a fathers day gift. This was something they wanted to have done no later than Thursday and since I typically don't detail on the weekdays I was a bit hesitant only because of the time I knew it would take for this particular job. The car would be dropped off by 3:30pm and they needed the car back by 8pm that same day. I was like ughhh, I will try my best but I think it will be more like 9pm at the very least. She thought about it and said well ok I have to get it done. I made no guarantees it would be perfect but should look better I told her.
So Thursday comes around and the car is dropped off close to 4:30p. That made me a bit nervous because time was being used up and I really don't like to rush my jobs. It's kind of like trying to bake a cake and have it ready to eat within 20 minutes type of thing.
Between the first meeting and the start of the detail I had a chance to think about what might be needed to correct the hood which was by the way the main concern of the customer. I new rotary work was going to be required but with a very gentle approach. My gentle approach turned out to be rotary with a purple foam wool pad and some M205 followed by D300 on a MF cutting pad. I tried D300 on the G110v2 before anything and nothing really happend. So luckily the product and approach I had been thinking of the night before was the key. By the way I ended up finishing about 9:40pm.
Well, enough rambling and onto the video clip. By the way I've been making the videos for several reasons so I hope you guys don't mind them in that format as compared to individual pictures being uploaded. Thanks for watching.
