A family friend has this MB SUV that is always severely neglected. Since she is a professional resume writer, we cut a deal where I would detail her car and she would rewrite my resume. So I guess this is technically my first paid detail.

Here are the before pics:

I think some of the bugs on the front were from 2012

Products used:
Wheels - CG Diablo
Tires - CG nonsense and Meguiars Endurance tire dressing
Windows - Stoners invisible glass
CG citrus wash and gloss
Nano skin medium sponge

I used Meguiars ultra polish for the first time with white LC CCS pad and was really happy with the results. The car was then topped off with Collinite 845.

The after shots:

this is the case where I just break out meguiars dub or iron x, cuts time down significantly

Thanks Sicoupe. I appreciate it.

Bill,
I've been reading up on Iron-x, but haven't pulled the trigger since this is primarily a hobby and our two vehicles are new. If I keep taking on jobs like this I'll have to get some.

David - Looks good. Sounds like a good trade for both of you.

Like bill said add some iron-x and some Sonax full effect and you will save time.
