So a friend of mind from a racing forum I'm a member of came to me with his RX7 that's been in storage and ridden with dust and holograms from the last person who polished on it using a rotary but didn't have the best handle of using such a tool. The goal here was to get it ready inside and out and under the hood so he could list a respectable looking RX7 for sale.
My Clean & Prep for Sale or Trade package is targeted at vehicles that are in need of a strong exterior and interior clean up prior to selling or trading the vehicle where the current owner does not want to invest in a machine polish yet does want to maximize the appearance and offer a freshly cleaned and protected vehicle.
What we agreed to was a custom package that involved a nice light polish with CarPro Essence which effectively knocked-down the swirls and and absolutely removed those buffer trail holograms. Overall the car actually came out better than even I expected for such a light polish.
Next came the interior which was basically a full wipe down of every surface and crack and joint to remove months of dust. Same for under the hood only that's where things can be tricky given the mods and exposed items and sensitive electronics so I traded lightly and achieved what Joe was looking for in the way of clean up. I can't wait to get my Tornador up and running. This would have been the perfect car for it. Overall, I feel the car is very presentable now and clean up will no longer be an issue for the upcoming sale.
Now onto a few pics.

This pic is a bit embarrassing for me as the short drive down the street to turn it around kicked up a lot of dust that I wasn't as aware of until after the shots were taken. The joys of pure black....ugh.
