    Built Trailblazer SS - Mirror Detailing

    Went down to Hunters Performance today, to do a 2-Step Package on the Procharged Trailblazer Hunter just finished. Truck was in bad need of a detail. Paint was pretty rough and needed claying badly, plus the paint was rather hazy from the mass amount of scratches/swirls. So Hunter wanted to at least get 70-80% correction on the paint to make it looking good for the customer. Paint corrected real nice and resulted in 90-100% correction of the swirls/sratches which in turn really let the flake in the paint pop.

    Process:

    Wash - CG Citrous Wash'n'Gloss
    Wheels - Diablo Wheel Gel
    Clay - Pinn. Ultra Poly Clay w/ ONR Lube
    Taped Off w/ 3M Green Automotive Tape

    Buffing:
    1-Step - SIP via GG DA w/ LC Orange Pad
    1-Step M205 via GG DA w/ Tangerine Hydrotech Pad
    IPA Wipedown

    LSP - XXX Hard Core Wax

    Windows - Stoners Invisible Glass

    Tires - Pinn. Black Onxy Tire Gel

    Once I was done with just over half the truck, I had to back it out and turn it around. So I figured I would grab some sun shots of the current completed panels to see what the true results were...









    Then once I was completely done, but the sun was down by this point so just some general after pictures...

    Nice work! Not really digging what they did to the wheels, but other than that it looks pretty good!
