Meghan's Ride

[HighEndDetail]

Well, I had a long drive to get this one done.


I guess I started around 10am friday morning. Hooked up the hose, and pulled everything out to get ready.

Tires and rims

I used Duragloss 901 soap (Thanks Sparkie), a wheel brush and the 16' deep reach wheel brush to get in between the rim openings.
Wolfgang Black Diamond Tire Gel went onto the tires with a foam app.

The engine

Foamed up the engine, let sit for a min. then hosed it off. Wiped excess water off, then sprayed with tire foam. Started engine, let run for a few min. turned off then wiped off excess foam residue.

The Wash

Duragloss 901 soap, and the Shmitt. I used the AG foam gun, so I foamed up the 300. Then washed a panel, refoamed then clayed it. Did this to the whole car, gave it a good rinse. Then Jimmie showed up, and gave me a hand drying Meghan's ride. We used the Cobra ww drying towels, and TC towels for the door jams/trunk ledge/and under hood.
He also wiped the excess water off the rims. Then Max came out and took Jimmie away.

The Gameplan

I pulled out the PC, some Optimum Polish and a low profile org pad. And started out on the front left fender. Then a section at a time, later on Meghan comes out and said are you done yet. I'm like nope( in my mind I am thinking did they ask picasso if he was done painting the mona lisa) it takes some time to make it right. Once the 300 was all polished up. Meghan wanted me to put a special new wax on for saturdays detailfest.
She gave me a jar of Wolfgang Fusion, and said use this. By this time Jimmie came back out and was willing to help out. I told him Meghan gave me a super secrete wax to put on her ride. So I started to put it on the rear left fender and kept going. Jimmie wiped if off with a Cobra Super-Plush Deluxe MF.

You might have seen some of these photos already. I wanted to put the process for everyone.

Now for some Bling

That looks great, I'm still deciding if I should buy Fusion. I just don't have the time for waxing and detailing lately on my vehicles, only use AW really now and even then havn't washed in like a month b/c of time and water restrictions, my NB/Souveran/5050 etc just sit there with no use.

I saw this car in person and I can't even begin to tell you how the paint popped; it was mesmerizing in full sunlight. Ed did an outstanding job on it.
