    Land Rover one step make over

    Well this car needed some attention inside and out.

    The owner has it parked out side both at home and work. It would get washed maybe every other month.

    Mechanical decontamination using car pro poly shave wash mitt. It really needed it. A lot of environmental fall out on the car. I also used 6 inch car pro clay pad on the 3401with clay lube

    Polishing using scholl concepts a15 AIO and Scholl concepts orange polishing pad (closed cell structure). Also used LC hydro-tech orange pads running the 3401 using 4inch and 5.5inch backing plates. All up I used 8 pads. 1 roof, 1 hood, 2 on each side and 2x4inch for the tight spots.

    Interior needed some attention. My photos are not very good.

    A full vac followed by a full wipe down using DP total interior cleaner. Then I topped all the trim and leather with Poor Boy's natural look. Glass cleaned with 2 microfibers 1 clean down and second to polish glass to streak free finish. Tyres where coated with Wolfgang Black Tyre Diamond Gel 3.0

    Best part about doing jobs like this is seeing the look on the clients face. He couldn't believe the transformation. Very satisfying

    nice work!

    i've been looking into getting Scholl a15 for a one step polish. i'm just wondering if it works any better than Menz PF2500.
