07' Range Rover

This client has us perform detailing services two times a year, and it was time for our fall services. These cars are never a headache on the exterior, but I cannot say the same for the interiors. They have a Golden, and he shed's like it is going out of style. Here are some before and afters. This is my first before and after, so pardon the post if it is not up to par with some of you. I plan to elaborate on future posts as I get more experience with posting.

Process included:
Interior:
Fully compressed, vac, vapor steaming, leather + vinyl cleaned and conditioned via OPP.
Exterior:
Complete cleaning of vehicles exterior with ONR system
Claying of the paint
tar remover
Meg's PCR
Wheel Wax
Opti tire gel

Before shots





hair everywhere!! especially the rear

after wash

clay bar

after wash

after rear area was addressed

after shots




End result

Overall this sport looked fantastic, but it took 7 man hours!!! Hope this was a good post for a first timer in the before and afters... Next time it will be something exotic and a much more detailed post! Thanks for viewing.

I thought you did a great job on the sport and on the post! How do you get the carpet lines so perfect? Is that just the vacuuming?

I have to work on the picture sizes on the next post, but thank you for the props! So far as the carpet, I steamed, and then I did another vac to leave the lines. The vehicle required some hardcore compressing and vac time prior to the steaming though. A massive amount of hair was present in this car from their golden. Happy detailing!

Nice job, dog hair is always a pain to get out. I have to use tape to get it out most of the time since I don't have a air compressor with me.

Try using powder free latex gloves... when u wipe your hand over the hair, it lifts the hair very well! Thanks for the props.
