    i knew this cab was going to need help when I booked it in. i may have underestimated how much help. The wheels alone took over an hour and they still were not quite perfect.

    Engine cleaned with AG Powermax2 and AG Vinyl & Rubber Care
    Jambs cleaned with AG Powermax2 and finished with Werkstat Acrylic Jett
    Inner fenders and tires cleaned with AG Powermax2. Tires dressed with AG Instant Tyre Dressing.
    Wheels were cleaned with, well, lets just say it makes Megs Wheel brightener look like mineral water! Nasty stuff. Wheels finished with PB Wheel Sealant.
    Car washed with DP Auto Wash and Werkstat Wool Mitt.
    Clayed with Automagic Blue and Red in some places.
    PB Black Hole Glaze was used to hide minor swirling. This was followed up with Werkstat Acrylic Jett x 2 and a final coat of AG Hi Def Wax.
    Entire interior was dressed with 303 as were all rubber seals.

    Total time - 9 hours

    Heh, those wheels looked like they came out great? Do you have any close-up pictures of how they turned out? I'm just wondering what you referred to as not perfect, hehe.

    Actually, most of the cars I work on look worse than they are. Usually a good wash and vac will clean them up nicely. If a car needs a shampoo, I won't touch it. I enjoy detailing cars, not resurrecting them.

    One of the wheels was so bad, after hitting it with undiluted acid, the barrel was still black. I didnt have the time frame to remove the wheels.

    Ouch, I guess I'm not the only one who can't get wheels fully detailed. It irks me when that happens! :(
