    Auto Makeover Virgin Detailer

    This car came out of the dealer looking like crap to begin with and then it was taken to two detail shops and both places said there is not much they can do with it . All I can think is why are these places still in business.

    Foam Bath
    Clay with Sonus ultra fine
    Some areas got Power Gloss green foam 1700rpm
    Sip green foam 1700rpm
    Sip / Op 50/50 mix black foam 1500rpm
    106 FA white foam 1300rpm
    then I try something different using 85Rd after 106 IMO it looks little better
    PO85RD blue foam 1000rpm
    then a really good wipe down with Menzerna FI
    Swissvax Zuffenhausen


    Here are some pics

    Well done, that is a great way to to start your posting here :thumb:

    Vehicle looks great, just curious though those looked like some nice swirls/scratches so the other detailers said they couldn't take care of those? Man that seems odd :shrug: but seems like you sure took care of all those swirls/scratches.

    Thank you for sharing with us :applause2:

    The owner said he had the car back in 4 hrs when he took it to these other shops, how much can you do in 4 hrs , IMO they put some wax on the car and pushed out the door and that's pretty much what you get when a shop charges you $150.00

    Well sometimes getting a deal is not really getting a deal, I'm a firm beleaver you get what you pay for...4hrs...all I can do in about 4hrs is rims, engine, wash the entiere vehicle and clay...that's all depending the state off the vehicle too...but 4hrs to polish...no way..maybe if it was one of those smart cars hahahahahaha.
