2007 Dodge SRT8 SuperBee

Today's detail is of a 2007 Dodge SRT8 SuperBee.

The SRT8 sports a 6.1 cubic inch Hemi with 425 hp and approximately 400 ft pounds of torque.

The weather in the Northeast today was extremely hot and humid. I swear I lost about 5 pounds but luckily I stayed hydrated. The client requested an exterior detail only and my plan was to use 106FF as the paint was in very good condition. I was very worried that the heat and humidity would make 106ff difficult to work with. I had 1Z polishes standing in the wings if 106FF acted up. Thankfully it performed flawlessly.

The client requested an exterior only but I did the interior for him as well.

The car was in very good shape but the inner wheel barrels had a ton of accumulated brake dust on them and the Brembo brake calipers. I spent 1.5 hours alone on the wheels and had to change my wash bucket 3 times...:angry. In the end them came out very nice. Hopefully the Zaino Z2 that I put on the wheels will cut down on the amount of dust. I also polished the headlights with 106FF and a 4 inch pad.

Total Time: 7 hours

Process:

Presoak via Foam Cannon and DG 901 and ## CWG (5 mins)
Presoak lower rocker panels with P21S TAW
Wash with 2 BM and Duragloss 901 soap
Clay with Meguiars Clay
Polish via Makita 9227 with 3M BP and Sonus White pad with 106ff
Polish via Flex with Sonus White Pad
Polish with 4 inch LC CCS pad
Wheels cleaned with Eagle One Tire and Wheel Cleaner and every wheel brush in my arsenal
Inner wells cleaned with Poorboys Spray and Rinse
LSP=Zainio Z2 ZFX'd x2 including wheels and glass
Tires dressed with Meguiars Hot Shine
Glass cleaned with Zep Glass Cleaner
