Guest Driven Auto Detail Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 This 2004 Cadillac Deville was a referral from a local body shop. Any GM paint that I work on always seems to be on the tough side. This one was no different. This vehicle had some swirls but weren't that noticeable until I got the halogens out. I couldn't see any with the Brinkmann handheld light gun. This was a Full Detail and in this package I provide one polishing step. EXTERIOR -Wash with Optimum Car Wash -Tires with Optimum Tire Shine -Wheels with Optimum Car Wax -Clay -Polish with UDM / W-8006 / Optimum Compound / speed 6 -Opti-Seal -Windshield with UDM / W-8006 / Poli-Seal / speed 6 -Engine with Meg's Hyper-Dressing 2:1 INTERIOR -Vacuum -Carpets & mats pre-treated with Folex then cleaned with steamer -Plastics cleaned with Woolite/Water (8:1) -Leather cleaned with Woolite/water (8:1) and leather brush -Leather & plastics protected with Optimum Protectant Plus -Glass cleaned with DG Rain Repel Unfortunately, the sun was MIA once again. I took some after pics inside and some outside after the rain let up. BEFORE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ehall Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Did you intend to post up 5 or 6 threads on this? Would you like me to clean those up for you if so? Nice work BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Driven Auto Detail Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 That's weird.....didn't realize I had dupes. I remember having issues with the page loading so that was probably it. Sorry about that, and thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Harris Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Nice work! Did you notice any of the dye from the leather comming off when you cleaned it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Driven Auto Detail Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Thanks Ron. I didn't seem to notice any dyes coming off the leather, however the driver's seat did not want to come clean. I doubt it had ever been cleaned before. I used the steam on it but it just seemed to streak (meaning you could see the trails where I cleaned) with a small nylon brush attachment and a small MF towel wrapped around it. I couldn't get it to even out though. That's when I decided to switch over to the Woolite/water and a leather brush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
