This is the first full detail I've done for a customer. This thing was washed usually but never detailed. there were the usual swirls and faded paint. The hard rain caused water spots. I started with a bucket of water, Gold Class soap, and some microfiber rags.

you can see some scratches and scuffs where the dirt behind the license plate scuffed at the paint. let's see if some M105 Ultra cut can remove these defects.

closeup of the back. look at all those nasty swirls, scuffs, and some RIDS

After some compounding with the buffing machine, there's a lot of improvement on the paint.

A 50/50 wipe with a wool pad. I should have done one with all the scuffs and swirls, but oh well this paint looks good! in full sun, it looks mint. and that's before doing M205, M7, then finally M26 yellow wax.

That is as good as this thing gets. the damage to that handle is permanent. after some clean up and tape removal, it went through a final wash with a fresh bucket of water and Gold Class soap, then I installed the license plate, and delivered the van. Sorry I didn't get more pics. I wasn't even thinking of posting these so I don't have a final pic, but this vehicle doesn't look that good anyway
I might take one later and post it.
