When I first came up to this car I was like, ohhh myyy gooddd, water spots from hell completely covered the car from front to back.http://img.tapatalk.com/616aeb20-f792-e4c4.jpg

This was a complete in/out detail. Forgot to take pics of inside like always. Luckily just by washing and using Meg's water spot remover, I removed 100% of the water spots and revealing paint that was actually in good condition. I also recommend to my client to let me clay bar it, to my surprise he refused and said it didn't need it. Whatever, I clayed it anyways. Was not about to wax a car without claying. Took me 2.5 hours to do inside and out. Needless to say these guys jaw dropped when he saw it and I will be detailing his Jaguar tomorrow :D let me know what y'all think!

Wow! Great turnaround Rusty. Did you do this all by hand? I would include claying the paint no matter what, being it is such an important step. Good thing you did.

Keep up the hard work!

Yeah I told him I clayed it anyways, and I knew after i was done the looks of the car would speak for itself. Little did I know my hard work & throwing in the clay for free, would pay off & land me another detail tomorrow which is his jaguar which I had no idea he owned. Always pays off to do your best no matter what! :xyxthumbs:

Nice work, that thing looks great! I agree with you 100% about doing the claying. Ive always thought the biggest jump in improvement was from a neglected to a properly clayed/waxed finish.

Thanks! Yeah it still amazes me what a clay & wax can do.
