    2014 Lexus IS 250

    Hello everyone I hope you are all doing well. Today I am sharing a car with you that just needed a tidy up. It needed a full wash with paint decon and wax. The interior needed a deep carpet clean and everything needed a dusting and cleaning.
    The interior was completed using various shop vac attachments, brushes, and micro fibers, the glass was cleaned with 50/50 mix IPA and distilled water leather was cleaned with mother’s leather tech wash. Certain interior plastics were treated with meguiars quick interior detail. Car was washed with Griots brilliant finish wash. Wheels were cleaned with car soap and wheel wollies and a little bit of Meguiars APC in some spots. The car was then decontaminated with IRON X and washed away again. Waxed with Meguiars Ultimate Paste Wax.


    Getting everything ready

    Thank you! You are correct, there was no correction done after it was second it was completely smooth. My washing technique plus the iron x resulted in a swirl free wax ready finish. Which also was discussed with the owner who was not willing to pay for correction at this point.

    I can understand the customer not wanting to spend money for correction work, but no swirls on a four year old Lexus by washing techniques and Iron X.
