    BrendanS Welcome to Detailing

    Detailed this FX35 a few days ago. Car was in pretty good condition, just needed a good claying and coat of wax. The interior had jean transfer stains on the leather that were really hard to get out. I'd say a good 80-85% of it came out. I was very happy with the combination of Menzerna Powerlock and Autoglym HD. Here is the write up!

    Good job Brendan! The car looks great! White has always been hard to capture...

    I'm not feeling the wheels..

    Thanks bud! Yeah white is definitely hard to capture.
    Thanks! Camera is D3000 and most of it are just shot on auto. Just a little bit of editing was done to the photos to brighten them up as it was cloudy during the after shots
