    Good evening fellow detailers!! Hoover here. Been VERY busy as of late and need to get caught up on posts. Client contacted me because of a post my wife made on a neighborhood watch group about me detailing!! I told her "thanks dear, you just got me a Porsche to clean"!!! Upon arrival to do a quote/review, she was whoaaaa with a big smile. I love my biggest supporter!! Anyway, on with the show...awaiting arrival with supplies ready to go!!

    Cleared up so much, could have been a one step with Sonax Netsheild as a topper, but did it later with Meg's D/A Finish pads and Finishing wax...

    You're getting some great results, how many hours to do this one? And no interior work?

    Thanks all!! Total time was about 18 hours. No engine or front compartment. Inside was very clean already. We agreed to just a quick vacuum, wipe down and windows. Most jobs are Megs correction compound/finishing wax/Sonax Netsheild. The combo for me rocks and is repeatable over & over again.

    Have a great evening!! :)
