Ok, This write up wont be as thorough as usual, I had this car for a weekend and had to work on and off the whole time. But needless to say, It was completed and looks amazing!

This clear coat was hard as rock and I had to go over each panel 2-3 times to get the correction that I needed.

The owner LOVES Meguiars products and had like 100 layers of wax and ultimate quick detailer spray on the Tahoe. Which means I had to DAWN wash the thing 2-3 times to knoxk off most of the wax that was on there.

I did't take any washing pics because of time constraints. but here was my process

Dawn wash 2-3 times
Grit Guard w/ 5 gal bucket and 100% sheep skin washmitt
wheel cleaner: Diablo wheel gel from Chemical guys
EZ detail brush to clean wheels.
Clay magic blue clay
misc brushes that you see in all my other write ups.

Here are some Before Sun shots



















Here is a 50/50 after about 2 passes with purple foamed wool pad and Meguiars M105 compund.






























I took me a few different combo's until I finally found the right one that Cut the paint the best. PFW pad w/ M105 via Flex. some tight areas required me to use my 3" Griot's Garage orbital.

After the Cutting stage I polished the paint using Meguiars M205 Ultimate Polish with a LC hydrotech tangerine pad

I used the Flex 3401 VRG polisher with:

Lake country Purple Foamed Wool pad
Lake country Hydrotech Cyan pad
Lake country hydrotech Tangerine pad





The paint was seal using Black Fire Wet Diamond.

Here are some Final Sun Shots. 97% correction was done, this paint was very hard and needed the big guns brought out to level out the paint correctly.





































Thanks for viewing!!!! have a blessed day!

 

wow! that thing looks like NEW! arent you on Honda-Tech too? or is Tru_Shine like a group of detailers? i love what you/ you guys do!

 

Wow...just like always your work is amazing.

 

Nice work I bet the customer about fell over when they first it!

 

I so need to get out the buffer and use the M105/205 combo that you use

 

LOL, Tru_Shine is an Elite Squad of Detailing Ninja's!!!! hahaha Just kidding. It's just me. And yes I am on Honda-tech too. Just a one man Army. thanks

Thanks
this was a VERY picky customer but yes she was happy

Depends on which buffer you get out? If its a rotary buffer you in for some swirl marks and holograms. if you bring out the porter cable 7424 then you be fine

 

very nice work.
i love your threads!

 

nice. love your detailing. got rid of some of the orange peel too.

any tips on fixing my keyed car? im not sure if it went down to the base or primer, or even metal since I have an SSM. I have honda touch up paint. Should I sand it down and respray, or just fill it in and sand and clear the area? I would then buff and polish after too.

 

how long is the mark? some key marks are so long, if you try to touch it up it would look like a big long worm going down the side of your car?

 

very very nice work, willing to travel to MA , my nhbp fit is worse than that tahoe was, new england is hell for cars

 

Great work!
