Poorboy's World Detail - Quest

We had amazing weather this weekend. Last week we got down below freezing and this weekend we had high 70's; almost 80 degree weather. I had to work part of Saturday so that sucked! After I got home I went to work on my wife's 2001 Nissan Quest.

My Sister-in-law gave me a gift certificate to AG for my birthday and I finally used it before the end of the year. I ordered several PB products so I decided I'd do as much of the detail as possible using the PB products I have (new ones + already in my stock). Thanks to a review from Justin I ordered a bottle of PB PWS.

Day one:
I started about 3:00 PM. I washed the Quest with PB Super Slick & Suds. I used a foam gun and a Schmitt. Dried it with a leaf blower and the Air Wand followed by a Cobra Guzzler. Door jambs were cleaned with an MF and PB S&W.

Wheels where cleaned PB Spray and Rinse Wheel Cleaner while the tires and wells were cleaned with PB Bio-Degradable All Purpose Cleaner & Degreaser (50/50 mix with water). I dressed the tires with DP Gloss Tire Gel (I don't have PB Bold & Bright Tire Dressing). I finished the wheels with PB Wheel Sealant.

Day Two.
Got started about 10:00 AM. After much debate on the forum, I decided to go with PB Pro Polish on an LC Orange pad and the UDM. I only did parts of the car with the Pro-Polish, the hood and parts of the sides where there where more defects. I then followed up with a white pad and PB Polish with Sealant.

I can see why detailers like the PWS. It corrected minor defects, left a shine with a layer of sealant and was fast to apply. It pretty much melts into the paint. There is little to wipe off.

Interior received PB Natural Look and the glass was cleaned with Diamondite glass cleaner.

Exterior trim was dressed with PB Trim Restorer.

I started to apply a coat of Natty's Red but only got the hood and back done as my Sister in Law called and begged me to clean her car. I'll do another post on that.

This was my first experience using PB PWS. I really like it! It was easy to apply and left a slick shiny finish. I hope to finish waxing next weekend. The Natty's Red was going on smooth as butter and smelled of strawberries.

My photos are terrible. I got interrupted and then it started to get dark on the before and after shots. But here is what I have.

Before (not very dirty to start with):


Okay, so a little dirty on the lower panel:

After PwS:




Once again, PB products did not disappoint me!

Very nice Reddrawf. The car looks great plus got some good good ideas from your PB review. Specifically, the PB APC and the PB S&W on the jambs. Thanks.

Re: Poorboy's World Detail - Quest

Very nice job Redwarf, PB does have some very nice products. Last weekend I pulled the back wheels off my new to me Viper. I sprayed the inside of the wheels with PB Spray and Rinse Wheel Cleaner while the wheels were on the grass. It did a great job on the wheels but now the grass is a little brown there. I guess I would not recomended for grass.
