This is the detail from my thread My prices are too high. After talking with the customer he asked if I could clean his 06 F150 and make it shine without polishing (he did not want the pay for it). I told him I can make the white glow it will still have the swirls. He was ok with that. I do not use AIO products alone because I have yet to find one that will last so I always top them if I use them and the price we agreeded on I did not have the time for extra steps. So that is why I choose to use the combo I did. I know this will last. Arrived at his house at 8am unloaded my containers from the car and set up. Rinsed the engine with the hose Cleaned with Zep Citrus Lots of towels and brushes Rinsed again Dried with Leaf Blower and towels Wiped down with FK 108 Let it run for 10 min Cleaned bed liner with hose, brush and Majestic solutions super green stuff Exterior trim cleaned with a brush and Zep Citrus and ONR Washed with ONR and groute sponge dried with shag rags and vroom drying towels Clayed with ONR and Meg White clay Wheels, tires and wells cleaned with Zep Citrus and ONR Wheels then got Meg Hot shine spray Interior vac Wiped down with ONR from top to bottom Opt Protectant Plus on Leather, floor (rubber mat material), pedals, door panels and dash Cleaned interior glass with Zep professional glass cleaner PC with 5.5" LC ccs white pad speed 5 Duragloss 501 mixed with some SIP Cleaned exterior glass with Zep Polished exterior B Pillars (black) with Meg D151 Protected all exterior black plastic with FK 108 Wiped off DG 501 with DG AW and shag rag I forgot my camera so here are the cell phjone pics Before Engine Done After wash and Clay All done
Thanks Luis :thumb: Thank you, the engine was just a hair over an hour to clean. The truck was used for 8 months at a construcion site in TX Thank you. The wife was shocked when she came out said it look better now then when they first picked it up
all the ONR non believers should look at how many places you used it and the results you got. NICE WORK! rags to riches
Thank you. I have been usin ONR for a year now, all but one detail I have done in the last yr have been done using ONR
You made it Shine w/out polishing :applause: :giggle:Talk about a base unit, that thing is bare bones. I can understand why the guy didn't want to spend $700 on a detail :yikes: I'm sure you can add another delighted customer to your rolodex opcorn:
He purchased the truck to use at construction sites only. Now he is trading it in for a Sonata. He said he will pass out all the cards I gave him.
Sal..good for you, man!! When you said "shine w/out polishing", DG 501 came to mind. good call there and especially with amping it up a bit with the SIP. Smart cookie you are. White is a great colour to work on. I'm very happy for you Sal.
Great job on the engine bay and on that paint. Looks awesome! +1 to awesomeness on him handing out cards.
Thank you Dana. Greensboro has been good to me so far with details, I would love to do this full time Thank you much Richy. Not smart I can remember things though lol. A yr ago I was talkin to Al-53 about the DG line he got me hooked. He mentioned then to add some Menz polish to 501, this was my first time trying it and it worked great Thank you Thank you, reminds me I need to order more cards with my new address
Thanks Karl. I hope to get some headlight restorations as well. Never in 4 other places I lived have I seen so many yellowed headlights
