Wow that turned out looking great as usual with your details! After you sprayed the P21 Auto Wash on the engine did you use water to take it off or did you just wipe it down with towels?

 

agitated the p21s with a brush and then washed off with a high pressure washer..

 

Very nice, what kind of dressing did you use on the engine afterwards?

 

Adam's In and Out Spray

 

Outstanding as usual! Thanks for sharing!

 

great job phil

 

Beautiful job, and very efficient I might add. Phil, what PW do you use btw?

 

Awesome. Thanks. Have you ever had any issues with electronics after using a pressure washer under the hood?

 

nice group you got there...

 

Great job Phil.

 

Great job, Phil! i like the idea of using QD on wheels, but never done it myself...do you spray it on the towel, and wipe it off, or spray it on the wheel directly?

 

Nice work Phil!

 

That's a nice group of fellas you have running around detailing the Cadillac!

Do I spot an R32 in the background???

 

Thanks this group is great they are all car guys and don't do this for a living.

Student/Car Broker/Executive/and an IT Manger. They have a great passion for car detailing its great!

Ride3311 never an issue with electronics with the engine.

dsms we use a Karcher I think its 1800 psi and its at Lowes for $199.

 

we spray it on the wheels directly.

 

Mark IV anniversary edition GTI, I'll have that write up shortly.

 

its 159 at lowes

 

Yea I saw it for $159 at Lowes, I think thats the one im getting.

 

Man talk about team work well done :applause2: but man those are some sharp looking pictures :thumb:

With a group like that I'm sure this job was done quite fast. The funny thing is that when you detail in a group, not only is it done faster but you enjoy it more.

Thanks for sharing Phil, nice turn around :thumb:
