AJ Auto Detail: Range Rover

ajnavo61490 · 03-22-09, 02:24

This Range Rover is owned by one of my good's friend's parents. When my friend told them I did detailing, they immediately wanted to schedule an appointment.

The exterior was normal; water spots, pollen, bug etchings (can't really do anything about that

), brake dust, ect. The interior, however, was a different story; heavily soiled leather, shoe scuff marks on doors/plastics, dog hair, and stained carpets. So, I had my work planned out for me... LET'S GET STARTED! Owners just wanted a wash/protect + interior w/ carpets shampooed.

Total Time: 5 Hours

Process:
Meguiars Wheel Brightener
Chemical Guys Orange Super Degreaser
Chemical Guys Citrus Wash Clear
Chemical Guys Maxi Suds II
Meguiars All-Season Dressing
Chemical Guys JetSeal 109
Vacuum
Steam
Zymol Leather Cleaner
Chemical Guys Lighting Fast Stain Remover
Chemical Guys Window Cleaner
Chemical Guys Leather Scent

Foam

no, no paint correction. i think either their lease on it is about to expire or their thinking of getting a new car in the near future, so they just wanted it cleaned up a bit.

the paint is actually a really deep blue, but it does look black in the shade/at night

thats when i would have educated them on what a proper full correction could do for there lease. instead of seeing this as a wax job, i would have seen an oportunity to educate them heavy on lease returns and what i can do for them! i would have transformed that one! looks great though for a quick detail!! good job!

Yeah, I know. But I only had one afternoon to do it. But, they did tell me in a few months that they would get me to clean it up again. I guess that would be a more appropriate time to tell them about it since it will be summer and will have more time.

If they are just turning it in anyways why would they care what AJ could've done to the paint??? Call me confused but if I'm just dumping something off I could care less what it looks like after the fact. good job AJ. You did what the customer needed done in great fashion.
