Express Detail: Modded '06 Sierra

[Driven Auto Detail]

This customer was a referral from a local body shop. The customer is going to be selling this truck so he wanted to get it cleaned up a bit. Because this truck is so big, it hadn't been washed in about a year. This truck serves as the customer's office on wheels. He owns and electrician company so it was dirty top to bottom. Typically, I try to use all eco-friendly products, but that went out the door for this job.

On a side note, it appears that this is going to be a great repeat customer. Between him and his wife, they have this truck, her Envoy that she uses as her insurance agent vehicle, an '07 Escalade that serves as the family vehicle, and a brand new Harley that he brought home while I was working on his truck. They've already told me to come back out in a couple weeks after they get back from vacation to take care of the Escalade. He also asked me several times about doing his bike. I told him I don't really do bikes, but after thinking about it, I think I'm going to take him up on his offer. When I was talking to him about his bike, he said he's going to be tearing it down to put in a new motor and a bunch of other new parts. I'm really looking forward to working with this family.

Wow, that truck looks great for having taken all that abuse and then just a wash and wax. Thanks for sharing.

[Dark_Tempest]

Huge comes to mind. Nice turn around on it, how long did it take, if u don't mind me asking.

[Jimmie]

That's an impressive detail. Turned out beautiful.

makdaddy626 - Thanks! It was the biggest truck I've had to work on so I got a workout with it. The pictures don't show it really, but it was in dire need of polishing.

Dark_Tempest - Thanks! Interior took about 2.5 hours and the exterior took about 1.5 hours. Total 4 hours.

Jimmie - Thanks!

[boogiejoe]

Man, that is a big azz truck!

Nice work!

[Driven Auto Detail]

boogiejoe - Thanks!

[Dust2Glory]

Mike bro you need to buy that truck!!!! If you used that thing to haul around your trailer... you would get MADDD business!!! Sweet detail... I can't believe they interior took you 2.5hrs... must of been NASTY

[Driven Auto Detail]

D2G - LOL!!! Gas is already killing me with my Tacoma. I can't imagine how much that Sierra would cost me!

I don't claim to be the fastest detailer, so that 2.5 hours that it took me probably would have been less for other detailers...hehe! You're pretty experienced with large vehicles so I'd bet you could bust it out pretty quick!

[supercharged]

Love your detail! He shouldn't have any issues selling it now. It's a nice truck, but too expensive to fill up...$100 a tank...

[Driven Auto Detail]

Thanks supercharged! No kidding about the $100 fill-up.
