Just completed this truck yesterday.
Started at around 4:30am since the client did not drop it off until late at night. This left me with just one day as he needed it back later in the evening.
No engine, no paint correction, just a cleaning was all time would allow for.
The truck got slammed up against a building a couple years ago, drivers side was left with a horrible repaint and I mean horrible, its gray more than it is black. At least the interior was in so so shape.
Setting up for wash prep/degreasing:
Finally bought some IronX, have a white X3 tomorrow and will be the true test.
Before:
Wash/prep:
Pressure wash.
Bed degreased with Purple Power & Dawn.
Tires, wells, mats, & wheels soaked in 3D Orange Degreaser.
Foamed/washed with NXT Generation Car Wash.
IronX decontamination, followed by clay.
Foam/washed again with NXT.
During:
After all prep stages complete.
Interior:
Vac/dry brush/vac.
Leather/vinyl cleaned with 3D Orange Degreaser & hot water mix.
Carpets shampooed with 3D Carpet Shampoo.
Leather/vinyl protected with Quik Interior Detailer.
Glass cleaned with Glass Cleaner Concentrate 10:1.
Jambs washed with ONR.
Before:
After:
Like I stated before, the exterior drivers side was destroyed and looked terrible under the sun. The paint was bone dry though and I am sure I ate through the body shop miracle glaze that was filling the finish.
ONR wash to remove all the dust.
Polished/waxed with Optimum Poli Seal via PCXP & 5" MF disc.
Tires/wells dressed with Hyper-Dressing 2:1.
