Pontiac Solstice: MAX WAXED

Today I got a call from a State Farm agent who just bought a new Solstice, and wanted me to detail it for her. She said the dealership didn't do a very good job. Imagine that? The car is charcoal gray w/ black interior. It's very nice little car all except the wheels. They're very similar to the new tahoe wheels. I think they're some type of aluminum, and they don't shine very good. I would much rather have chrome. Anyway here's the process:

Exterior:
Rinse w/ PW
Apply Meg safe-d greaser to rims and tire via PW foam gun
Scrub w/ yellow shmitt
Rinse w/ PW
Apply soap mixture (hyper, apc, 4 and 1, H20) via PW foam gun
Clean w/ white shmitt
Rinse w/ PW
Spray tires w/ Armour Tire foam
Cali blade windows
Spray Fast clean and shine on car
Dry w/ Guzzler
Aquawax rims
Aquawax all glass and side mirrors
Max Wax entire car by hand
Remove w/ two MF one dry and one misted w/ Crystal Mist

Interior: new car (YES!)
Wipe door jams
Aquawax door jams
Stoner windows
MF dash and door panels
Aquawax chrome accent pieces
Max Wax painted accent pieces
Vacuumed w/ Rigid and brush attachment (best interior tool ever!)

BEFORE PICS:



AFTER PICS:





CONCLUSION:

Once again I'm very impressed w/ both Max Wax and Aquawax. It was a pleasure doing this car after having to do so many SUV's lately. I almost felt bad taking the Mr. Franklin from her. Not really! She loved it and wants it clean at least every two weeks along w/ her white Range Rover.

Once again Bradley good job.
I want to detail one, I haven't had the chance yet. Did you put any protectant on the top. Like rag top, or 303

No not today, but I told her about it and see said maybe in a month or two. The top did produce good water beads though.

Great job! That car is very hot. Max Wax & Aqua Wax have become two of my favorite LSP's!

It's hard to beat MaxWax and #951, some of the best products out there. Great job, the car looks awesome. On another note, Pontiac has a winner with that car IMO.
