This is actually my uncles SUV, and the one the spurred on the preceeding phone call to Ken at Autowerkes exclusive. My Aunt and uncle have never owned a new car, and he's saved for this one for years. Finally, now that he's retiring he's treated himself and and his wife to a new truck so they can travel together. He bought the SUB last fall and proceeded to wash it frequently all winter to keep the harsh ontario road salt off the vehicle. However, he did this using the dreaded pay 'n spray brush. He didn't notice the swirls he was inducing, until one day he generated some very bad scratches over the entire truck. When he heard I was starting a detailing business, he asked if I could do something about it. The interior needed a good cleaning too and he asked me to repair it all. This thing took me two full days, somewhare around 20 hours total.

The Owner's face lit up. "it's better than the day I bought it!" he says. I got a tip, as well It really does look great in person. Uber yellow and power finish is an awesome combo!
nice detail, Uber yellow/Green and Menz power finish is always my favour 1-stepper combo. Did you bring a ladder to do the roof too?
I use milk crates to carry my supplies so I just emptied them out and stood on them lol. The roof on this guy was 90% glass (rull glass roof) so there was just the edges that frame the glass that needed correction and yup, I did them!
