| | | 98 Saturn
98 Saturn This car has probably seen a few automatic washes in its 9 years. The last time it was waxed was the last week of Never. Needless to say it needed some attention. The owner totally loves her car but does not think to clean it at all. Luckily the interior was not full of garbage it just had some Coke and coffee spills on the carpet. The exterior was flat; that’s best way I can explain it, flat. Between the XMT360 and the SSII this cars green metallic paint just popped. The owner was so happy all she kept saying was she couldn’t believe that this was her car. Her reaction was well worth the effort that went into this detail. Here’s the Detail: Exterior Wash – DP Xtreme w/foam gun, dry w/Ultimate Guzzler Clay – Clay Magic Blue with CM Lube Polish – XMT 360 on CCS Orange Pad w/UDM Wax – SSII by Hand Tires – DP Wheel Gel – Black ShMitt, DG 265, Wells - AA Foam Windows – DP Krystal Vision Glass/WW towel Diamondite Plasti-Care on lenses Trim – PB Trim Restorer Interior Full Vacuum Mats – Vacuumed and Folex Carpet – Folex for Tough Stains Interior Cleaned with Water/Woolite DP Surface Protectant Diamondite Plasti-Care on Lenses As always your comments and questions are welcome. Thanks for looking. Before       Check out this clay!

| | | Great turnaround, Alice! I can see why the owner was very happy. The paint did look dull, but you brought out the color and shine!
What ratio Woolite/water did you use for the interior?

It's also green. He's getting it on Saturday. I can't wait to get my hands on it! LOL.

What ratio Woolite/water did you use for the interior? | Thanks for the compliment. The ratio on Woolite was 10:1 (water to Woolite).
