Detailed: 2000 Jaguar Vanden Plas

New day.....new client. This is one of 3 I did today. They are referrals from the marina owners. This couple has some very nice rides. I felt very proud that he choose me to handle and maintain them This one is just a gem. I've always loved Jags but this is beautiful. I has only 29K on on the odometer. He bought for his wife when he retired. It's her baby. Now it's mine!

Start time:
9:00AM
Finish Time:
12:00PM
Payment:
250.00

XMT #3
(Used EDGE2K Yellow Cutting Pad at #5 PC setting)
The finish was pretty heavily swirled. Sun was hiding so no good before shots but they were there.....promise. #3 took care of them as usual. about 5 minutes per panel. No dust and no fuss. Full sun too when I was mid way.

Poli-Seal/Polish Combo
(Used EDGE2K Orange Polishing Pad at a #5 PC Setting)
I just wanted to take care of any marring left by XMT#3. Also wanted to just amp up this white some and give it more protection.

Pinnacle's Liquid Souveran
(Used EDGE2K White Finishing Pad at #3 PC setting)
Man I love this stuff still! So easy to use. Only takes a little too. Leave the finish soft and smooth. Oh yeah, reflect damn well too!

Other Products Used:
Meguiars Detailer Line Super Degreaser
(4:1 on engine, tires, and wells)
Meguiars Detailer Line APC
(10:1 on interior sufaces, leather, and mats)
Meguiars Detailer Line Wheel Brightner
(4:1 on wheels. Let sit for 2 minutes per wheel and brushed)
Armor All Tire Foam
(Tires and wells. Let sit for 5 minutes and wiped clean with MF mitt)
Armor All Tire Gel
(Applied with supplied applicator)
Pinnacle's Leather Cleaner and Conditioner

Befores....

Wow I'm blown away by your work, how do you do it so fast??? That car was in desperate need of a good detail and your the person to do it. Looks like you had a really productive day. Love the write up as always, your write ups are helping me with my "how to polish" book guide.

Keep up the awesome work. I'm curious about the other 2 you mentioned...that picture looks promising as usual....I'm looking forward to the write up though.

Great job Justin!

Do you change product's based on client or vehicle? For instance using Pinnacle Leather Cleaner/Conditioner instead of Meguiar's. Also using liquid Souveran instead of another cheaper sealant. If so, do you charge more for more premium products?
