Space Gray 335 Spring Cleaning

Hey all. Detailed my friend Paul's car today. Gave myself 8 hours to get it done, only took 7.5 lol. Full exterior with 1 stage polish and sealant plus interior.

As I got it, not bad really but needed some love for sure. The silver / light gray's really hide dirt and scratches well.










Products all lined up, instead of a list, here are some of the products.













Ready to start, looks great in photos already



washed thoroughly w cg citrus and clear, good stuff.





all clean right??

rear trunk and rear fenders only



tires being cleaned w Meg's tire cleaner



nice and brown



Sonax sprayed on



Red smelly ooze



Tried to get a 50/50 shot for polishing but it was futile......color hid all the damned RIDS that covered this car in photos.

After polishing, wiped down w ISP





Sealant curing



All done on the exterior!





oh and the tips, they are starting to peel whatever coating is on them.



cleaned up more after this photo



AND THE REVEAL
















Wish I had taken some interior shots, turned out great.

We installed Kw V2's on his car at least 2 years ago I believe. His car is well done.
