Hey guys. Been awhile I know but it's been hectic here. All 3 of my kids are now in school and I've been reworking my schedule to finish up at 2:30 so I can pick them up everyday.

I got a call from a bank on Friday. It was the bank's president (done his car ealier this month) asking me if I could do a full detail on a truck. It was a repo and was pretty rough. I said yep and the rest is in the pics!

How did you like the armorall dash and leather gel

**Mike T** · 08-21-2006, 04:10 PM

Very nice. How long did this job take you? I noticed you used a very aggressive pad with XMT 2. You didn't have any hazing or such left over after that combo?

**supercharged** · 08-21-2006, 04:10 PM

I bet the owner is very happy with results! Awesome!

No hazing at all. XMT and EDGE never fail me. I use an aggressive pad but I don't put alot of pressure down. I also finish up with very light, fast passes before XMT clears.

Oh yeah....Took me about 5 hours for the full thing.

Love all of their GELS.
As with the tire gel, the dash and leather go on smooth and brighten up in about 10 minutes. Smell is neutral.

A little goes a longgggg way too.

I used the tire gel on all othe exterior plastic trim as well.
