Here are some of the mostly completed pics. I didn't get any after I was done dressing the tires and wheel wells, or cleaning the glass. The owner showed up early, and we ended up talking, and I forgot .. lol.


The subject is a 2004 Excalade that had never been waxed. It was run through the lasewash once a week or so, and through the local tunnel once a month or so. In addition to the paint work, The owner requested that I remove all of the old, scratched up Escalade emblems, and replace them with new ones.

The owner is a regular client of mine, and this is a new acquistion for her.

The entire process.

Wash - Meg's gold class
Clay
Right side of the hood - Meg's #83, a 6" green edge pad and the DeWalt @ 1600
Left side of the hood - Tropi-care's new Swirl cutter plus, green edge pad and the DeWalt @ 1600
The entire vehicle - Meg's #80, 6" green edge pad on the DeWalt @ 1500
Hood - Menzerna PO106FF - blue pad on the DeWalt @ 1000
Meg's #21 2.0
Adam's In & Out spray on the running boards
Meg's HD on the tires 2:1
several beers.


Final pics
