I've been out of the game for a while completing my Computer Science & Engineering degree. But since that is now done, I am concentrating on detailing. Without further ado... Completed a one-step correction and light interior cleaning on a 2012 Infiniti M37s last week. Steps taken: - Wheel faces and barrels cleaned - Tires were sprayed down and scrubbed - Wheel wells cleaned - Completely washed - Clay barred with Clay Magic Blue - Paint Measurements completed - Covered all exterior trim to protect while buffing - One step paint correction - Inspection with Halogen, LED and sunlight - Washed again to remove and remaining polishing oils and dust - Exterior trim was hand polished - Exhaust tips polished - Exterior protected with Blackfire Wet Diamond - Leather seats cleaned - Carpets and floor mats vacuumed - Exterior and Interior windows cleaned Products used: CG's Citrus Wash Clay Magic Blue Clay Duragloss 901 Stoner's Tarminator P21S Gel Wheel Cleaner Leatherique Pristine Clean P21S TAW CarPro Eraser Meguiars 205 Lake Country Flat White Pad (Lake Country Cyan Pad was used below the gas lid where the owner tried to wipe up spilled gasoline.) Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant 303 Aerospace Protectant Optimum No Rinse Stoner's Invisible Glass History: Vehicle had ~23k miles when I arrived. It had the typical washing swirls and it appeared to have some kind of sanding marks on a lot of the door panels. Infiniti recently switched from their "self-healing" clear coat to "hard" clear coats. Which I am ok with, the self-healing paint is a pain to work with. I didn't have much time to complete the car so we decided to do a one-step correction and fortunately, the few test spots I tested, we achieved pretty good correction with the 205 and white LC pad. I've come to the conclusion that I love the way Infiniti's sound. Total time spent: 12hrs Before Wash: This is why it's called DETAILing: After the wash, it actually doesn't look too bad: But when you get some halogens onto the paint, it's a different story... Thanks for looking. Andrew
Excellent work Andrew. I had the pleasure of having my car detailed by Andrew back in 2008 when I was living in MI and detailing was not my hobby. I drove all the way to OH for the detail and his work is top-notch.
You can say that again. Hope to be able to do this full time. Thanks Wow, I can't believe it's been that long! Thanks. Makita 9227c was used for the job. For some reason, I couldn't get the 7424xp to finish down as good. I appreciate it! BigAl! How are you doing?! Every time I see you, it seems like its when I take a hiatus. Not anymore. Fully concentrating on detailing Thank you, sir.
Stunning work! I love Infinitis! They are the closest from japanese rivals to german rivals in terms of performance.
