Fairfax Honda, 10 minutes from my house. I've done work for them before. One of the service guy called me yesterday afternoon that they had a CRV with a couple of scretches and it needed a full detail & had to be done Saturday. Took me 6 hours.

interior ( no pix)
lots of vacuuming
woolite mix
lots of headliner work (coffee spill)

exterior
nxt wash
ssr 2.5 LC white pad at 6
PcW LC white pad at 5
Meg's hot tires on tires
AA on wheel wells/trim

Couple of scretches (per 3 inches

)

The whole car looked like this door. This paint was soft enough for the pc and I removed all but the ones that you could feel with your nail.

Was this subject to the Makita?

You mentioned alot of headliner work, because of coffe spills...

Did this car come with the anti-gravity option?

I again edited the post. Used the PC. That is why it took so long. No such option.

That's what I get for not reading and just looking at pictures.

How the hell did they coffee get on the headliner? Anti-gravity upgrade?

Did the car like roll or something?

Maybe due to our wonderful bumpy roads. There were a few drops that didn't want to come out but were reduced to a point hwere you had to really look. I didn't want to destroy the head liner

Nice transformation! Did you get any interior pics?

tdekany · 11-13-04, 08:46

Thank you very much Scott. I didn't take any interior shots. That typical Honda gray fabric looks flat and there was not much to show. It wasn't bad so I decided not to take pictures of it.
