2007 Lexus IS 350

It still had the dealer tags on it

I received a call, to give a detail just to the outside. Since it was only two weeks old. It had very light cobbwebbing. So I don't know how long it sat on the lot.

The Wash
Dp Extreme Foam Formula Auto Shampoo and the white shmitt. Tons of suds with this soap.

Wheels/Tires
Same soap with the 16" deep reach wheel brush. This is a great brush to get into the openings in the rim. And also a reg. wheel brush.

The Gameplan
Pinnacle XMT 360 with a EDGE2K green pad, on the PC. Speed set on 5
The owner wanted zaino put on as a last set. So two coats of zaino z-5pro was applied to the finish.

Tires
Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Gel on tires

Once again, nice job Ed. That hood reflection shot is crazy.

Nice job Ed! I also really like that 16" deep reach brush. It works great on wide wheels and tight places like in between the calipers and the wheel.

I agree with AL417, the hood reflection is SICK!!

I love the look on that Lexus, it's very sexy (I'm saying like Ostin powers).

The vehicle looks incredable....I've said it before but that looks better then new and it's true because that vehicle was delivered the way you saw it Ed.

Well done.

Sweet work! I did the same car and color, but a 06 250 model a week ago, they are nice cars for sure.

Nice job! So many products out there, that I still didn't try Z-5. Only tried leather products from Zaino.

That brush works wonders some times. Every detailer should have one

BEAUTIFUL work on a BEAUTIFUL car

I do love that model of Lexus (maybe I'm slightly partial )
Their metalic paint really sparkles.

Great work! One side item, I hate it when dealers place logos on vehicles. I have always had it written when buying "no dealer logos". If they still put it on, off it goes as soon as I hit the driveway
