    After educating my client on paint correction it was time to get the Ferrari looking as it should. You will see some befores of a previous detailer who made my jaw drop as I saw what was done. NOTE**** USED NEW MF TOWELS SO LINT IS PRESENT IN AFTERS

    as it was.....

    did a test spot to see what I was dealing with here
    [​IMG]

    compound in about every place possible, I had previously done a few washes on it and used my steam cleaner to get some out but still A LOT remained throughout from the previous detailer

    Thats RED!! Nice job. I love the 50/50 on the exhaust can? Does the steamer work really well to remove old wax / polish buildup?

    Ken, with the proper agitation with a solvent and brush prior to steaming, it did the trick after a few goes at it. (I realize I forgot those pics now....)
