Menzerna Polishing Compounds of Germany has set new standards for workability, uniformity, performance, and quality. Why else would Mercedes Benz use Menzerna polishes to perfect the finishes on their brand new vehicles?

D2G Detail: 2006 VW Passat 2.0 T

This lady called me up and said she wanted to get husband's car detailed before he got home from Iraq... so I threw in an extra step, not that it would make up for what this guy has done. But I do what I can, when I can.

Wash:
Rinse
C/G Citrus Wash via Foam Cannon
1Z Perls soap in bucket
Wash with microfiber mit, brush on lower panels
Rinse
dry with MF towls

Wheels/Tires/Wells:
After first rinse, I pre-treated rims with Meg's wheel brightener, then foamed with rest of car
Rinse
Rims wiped down with QD
Tires dressed with D2G dressing via body brush
Wells dressed with AA tire foam

Paint conditioning:
PB PwS via UDM speed 5 and LC lo-pro white pad (used two pads)
buff off with mf
C/G Buttery Wax via UDM speed 2 3M waffle pad
haze, then buff off
Final wipe down with DG AW

NOTE:
On one spot, had to use 106ff & orange lo-pro pad
Trim around car got PB natural look

Windows:
In/Out with SIG, via Cobra WW

Interior:
Vac
Mats were foamed, rinsed, wiped down with APC
Carpet treated C/G Lightening Extractor Solution, wiped down with mf
De-odorized with C/G
Leather cleaned with RL leather cleaner, and Meg's interior brush
Leather got PB natural look
Doors, trim, dash APC wipe down: Used Swissvax wheel brush, nylon brush in process
dressed with PB natural look
























This car has some awesome flake, but because of lack of sun... was not able to catch it

Nice job, and a very nice gesture going the extra step to appreciate what those guys are doing overseas. I think we can all relate to that
