Trailblazer Detail

This is a regular of mine and he keeps his vehicle in very good condition (minimal swirls) so before pictures were not taken..

In fact I have been so out of the groove on taking pictures I didn’t even take engine pics (tsk-tsk I know).

Interior is always in immaculate condition and I already did a post winter full steam and extraction less than a month ago so it was in great shape.

Anyhow.. here’s my process and a few pics

Awesome work Jason, that last picture is truly perfect! Glad your getting back into doing great work from that long winter.........:worship:

 

Looks great Jason! Can`t wait for more detail by you

 

Great work as usual bro. You do some magnificent work and no wonder the guy is a regular. So give me the low down on what you think of SC Dash Away. Did you ever decide if it is an AIO type for interiors? Tires look kickin' too. Oh yeah what do you think of the foam gun?

 

Looks great Jason.

 

Thanks Angelo.. It has been very nice to to get back into the full swing of things after a winter of wash and waxing!!

Tak Ketil.... (see I learned that from you!!!)

Thanks bro!!! Yes, the dash away is an all in one product BUT I have not tried it as such on seriously soiled surfaces only for light cleaning... I was also told that it can be used as a spot cleaner for light carpet stains.. And the foam gun, it simply ROCKS!!!!!!

Thanks bro....:thumb:

 

Sweet work Jason !!

 

shiney!

 

Gracias Joe

Yeah, the owner likes the sealant look...:afro:

 

Great job Jason....real nice looking....

nice write up

Al

 

Very nice job Jason!!
The bumper trim looks nice!! Did you use this?
All plastic trim treated with Chemical Guys trim gel :shrug:
It's glistening.... looks great!

 

Thanks Al.. :headbang:

Yep, that's the stuff - I am very impressed so far.. I see this vehicle often so I will be able to report out on durability!!

 

nice mix on dg and ff... looks really dope..

 

Looks like a under 10k mile car !!! Nice work !!!

 

:applause: She is so glossy...Awesome job....You do find work my friend....

 

Looking good Jason. Also looks like you finally getting some nice weather up in the motor city.

 

Thanks - It really a great mix... I have also been told that SIP and 501 is a mean combo

Thanks Dean - funny you say that, the owner called me within hours of delivery saying that he could change back the odometer to 1ok or less and no one would question him

Thanks Sparks... The owner is very much into gloss and I aim to please.. If I had it my way I would have topped it with a nuba but he really wanted a pure sealant look

Thanks Gary... Ahhh yes, we have some nice weather - too bad when I woke up this morning the temp had droppoed back down into the 30's :yikes:

 

Nice work Jason.

I really liked your tip a while back on using the SC Grime Destroyer cut with some water so it comes out of the sprayer. I used it on my wheels, wells, tires and grime below the belt line and it worked great ...even diluted. I'm going to pick up a pump sprayer and some more SC products...the clearly better and tire dressings are very, very good products also.

What ratio have you been diluting the grime destroyer?

 

Thanks Paul,

My pump sprayer currently has 1 part Sc GD to 1.5 parts water - sounds like you use it just like I do.. I also use it on engines.. I LOVE the tire pro!!

 

Well done there Motor, vehicle looks great :thumb: Glad to see some details from you :cheerl:

Thank you for sharing with us.
