This is a long term client of mine. I’ve done numerous vehicles for them over the years. This is their newest daily driver.
The paint was absolutely hammered. FULL of swirls, scratches, water etching, and did I say swirls?
It came in for a simple one step…left with a 2 stage correction and a coating! LOL.


The ‘details’:

SCG Pro shampoo.
Adam’s wheel cleaner.
Adam’s tire and rubber cleaner.
Misc. wheel brushes, MF mitts.
Clayed via Griot’s medium mitt.
Master Blaster dry.
Scangrip lighting.
DeFelsko PTG.
Flex 3401.
Misc. foam pads.
M101.
Griot’s Correcting Cream.
Adam’s coating prep.
Adam’s ceramic coating.
Adam’s VRT tire dressing.
SCG Pro glass cleaner.
Metro vacuum.
McKee’s37 quick interior detailer.

Thanks for looking!

It's amazing what can happen in as little as 14K, damn! Great save as always, your neighbors cars must also look good, either at your hands or their own[emoji41]

Amazing how bad it can go fast with the wrong care. Would have been better not doing any care of the vehicals for some people LOL.

Awesome work and write up and pictures as always Scott!

Damn, that's at least an 80k SUV.

How could someone let it get in that bad of condition??

Nice save, Scott!!

Thanks all!!!! Yes, door/VIN sticker said it was an '18.

Yeah, it was a big'n! Just made it into the surgery center! LOL

SWETM: you are exactly right, amazing how quickly poor wash technique/etc can hammer your finish.

Eldy: LOL! Yes, after dropping it in the sand a few times! haha
