Today's detail - 2006 Infinity M35... but

Look where I had to work again!!!

2 weeks old

After working on the 05 M3 I do weekly, I went over to meet this client and did a "wash&wax for him. He liked the way the car turned out so a full detail is coming soon... OUTSIDE!
qew
pwc by hand
dp tire gel
nl inside
FK1 #425 on windows

I know the pictures are terrible.


Anyways, look what a high end dealership can do to your trunk. (Naturally he picked the car up at night) He didn't even know about it until I pointed this out to him. The car also has some water damage. Otherwise looks pretty goood in the dark.

PS: there was no outlet so no vacuuming.

Those buffer swirls are horrible. How did he not notice them? I'm sure that he will love it when you can make it really shine.

The average person doesn't notice because all they care about is, is it shiny? If it is shiny they don't notice the swirls. I remember when I first discovered this site, and tried to show my wife the swirl marks on my truck. She didn't get it, and when she finally saw them she was like, "Who besides you would even notice that?" Um...every Autopian on earth.

Anyway, didn't mean to hijack. That's atrocious what the dealerhship did. It's like they go hire anyone off the street to run the rotary.

I actually didn't see the swirls like it is visable in the 2nd pix. There are many scretches and very hazy. Color looks almost white in some places.
