The client was another client's son. Very nice guy who has some not so nice, young co-workers.
He let his car get a little too dirty and they decided to write on it and draw certain kinds of symbols in the dirt. Then, another young good samaritan co-worker tried to help out by wiping off the writing on the hood with a piece of paper..................................
The, there was some damage on the rear bumper from when he backed into an undercover police vehicle. That must have been fun.
We agreed to remove the deep scratched on the hood, rear bumper and around the door handles and follow that up with a cleaner/wax.
Now, let me give you a break down of the process.........
1) Wash with ONR at 2 oz. in 2 gallons of water while spraying off some of the heavy dirt with my pesticide sprayer
2) Clayed each section as I washed each section (wash the panel with ONR, spray ONR clay lube, clay away). I do not dry between.
3) Tires, wheels and wells cleaned with Super Degreaser (AMAZINGLY WELL DONE ON THESE WHEELS AND TIRES), ONR, various brushes and a pesticide sprayer.
4) Removed deep scratches on rear bumper, hood, and above door handles with a mixture of M105, D300, 2000 grit sandpaper and Microfiber cutting disks. M105 and the microfiber cutting disks worked really well!!!!!
Used ONR as a lubricant for wet-sanding.
5) LC white polishing pad with A12 Cleaner/Wax at speed 4
6) Vacuum and wipe down interior with ONR
7) Clean door jambs with CroftgateUSA Aquanil-X
8) Cleaned interior and exterior glass with Stoner's Invisible Glass
9) Dressed tires with Hot Shine Tire Foam and wells with Hyper-Dressing at 2:1
TOTAL TIME: 6 HOURS
Anyway, let's get to the pics!
BEFORES
From the paper................
Claying after 1/4 of the roof..............
AFTERS
Told you it worked well on the wheels!!
After some D300 and a Microfiber Cutting Disk on those hood scratches.....
However, some of those scratches were really deep so I broke out thr 200 grit sandpaper and a 3M Sanding Block. I like this block because it's really big and easy to hold.
Woops.........no after of the hood but I promise I pulled out all of the marks with M105 and a Microfiber Cutting Disk on speed 4.
Remember what the bumper looked like? Well, I'll show you again!
Did quite a bit of wet-sanding with 2000 grit to achieve this. Some of the marks went through the paint as you can see and some were too deep tp safely correct.
On to the cleaner/wax application for which I chose A12 Cleaner/Wax as it's my favorite.
No, this is not a black finishing pad but a white LC polishing pad. WAS THE PAINT A LITTLE DIRTY?!?!?!
Interior was pretty good, just did some vacuuming and wipe down with ONR.
A FEW FINAL SHOTS
THANKS FOR LOOKING!
