So, the first detail of the summer by Tedrow's Mobile Auto Detailing!!! 
Ok, so it was a white Toyota Sienna that was detailed by another detailer in the area. I have seen 2 other clients of this detailer and I am not impressed to say the least. He sold my latest client a detail where he applied 3 coats of "polish" to the paint back in April. When I looked at the car on May 14, the white was dull, the car was rough and there was no water beading. I told my client to look at my car and look at the difference in the beading. He was quickly ready to schedule an appointment.
He wanted to look into my $30/hour package which I reserve strictly for show car restorations or multiple step corrections. I told him to look into my most popular package but he kept looking at that $30/hour package. Maybe he thought it would be cheaper but I told him I would spend about 4 hours on the vehicle anyway. My most popular package includes a cleaner wax application, and some light interior cleaning. I threw ins some spot cleaning on the interior as I felt bad that the previous detailer took $130 out of him for a job not worth $130 at all.
Anyway, here are the after pics. The before pics don't show much difference as I couldn't get the white to cooperate with me on the 50/50s. Both sides look the same. I could see it but the camera didn't pick it up. So I'll just give you the afters showing how white paint should look
Process:
1) Wash with ONR and presoak with Ultima Waterless Wash Plus
2) Clay was unnecessary as the previous detailer must have either clayed or chewed through the contamination already
3) ColorX with G110v2 on a white LC flat pad at speed 5
4) Application of Ultimate Wax Paste
5) Vacuum
6) Spot clean the interior with APC and microfiber cloths as well as a new carpet cleaning machine I found; a Dirt Devil Scrubber thing. Works pretty well
7) Wiped down the rest of the interior with APC
And now the afters!!!!
I'm still working on my interior shots and I was unhappy with them yet again so....none of those. Thanks for looking!
