F150 King Ranch Full Detail

[snowracer21]

Quick intro:

I've been a detailing enthusiast since I bought my first car, 15 years later and I'm just beginning to detail for-profit. I'm not advertising, just getting business by word of mouth, which is all I can handle currently, as work 50-55 hrs/wk at my day job. All of my business has been co-workers/friends, and I tell them to be 100% honest w/ me regarding the service. No complaints yet (knock on wood). I'd love to take on more work, but to simply put it, I'm way too slow. For example, the below F150 detail, I had nearly 20 hours into it. My main downfall is trying to make everything perfect, even though the client doesn't know the difference between swirls and squirrels...they just want shinny paint, black tires, and clean windows..lol.

Sorry for the photo quality, took them all w/ my iPhone X, and some of the photos have poor lighting.

Exterior Steps:

-2 bucket wash (CG soap...trying to use it all up before I buy something else)
- McKee's 37 Iron Remover
-Clay all painted surfaces w/ Nanoskin Autoscrub

-BF One-Step
-LC Orange Hybrid Force Pads
-Flex 3401

The first 2 section passes heavy downward pressure (probably too much because the pad started to lose form) @5.5 speed
Passes 3 & 4 lighter @ 4.5 speed
Passes 5&6 no pressure @ 3.5 speed.

I was pretty surprised at the results. I told the client to expect 50-60% swirl/scratch removal, but it ended up being about 70-80%










This picture gives a good view of the neglected paint.



50/50...I accidentally went past the tape line, which messed up what could have been a good 50/50 photo.

Client was happy, that's all that matters!

Bear with me, this is my first time uploading photos on this forum...a little different that some of the other forums I visit.

Nice work, I like the 50/50 shot, shows your work well!

Thanks! I was really surprised how well it turned out using just a 1 step AIO. BF One-Step is legit!
