Chrysler 300, Lexus RX330, BMW 750Li

2007 Chrysler 300. No Hemi but it does have the 250 hp V6. Pretty new, excellent condition overall, just very light halo swirls. I used Optimum Poli-Seal and a white LC polishing pad and topped with Opti-Seal. I've found that when using OPS with OOS (I guess that is how we should abbreviate it!), you really need to watch how much OPS you use because if you use too much and don't wipe it off completely, you can get some light smearing with OOS. Nothing that doesn't wipe off pretty easily though. Anyway, it left a pretty deep, wet look. I tried to capture the flake (metallic black) as best I could but it was mostly cloudy that morning.













===============

2006 BMW 750Li. Weekly wash customer, usually conventional washing...but until they replace the deionized/reverse osmosis tank, it'll get ONR washes. The tank is way overdue for changing, spotting pretty bad. Hopefully it will be done before I go back next week because I wanted to see how Opti-Seal holds up to conventional washing.

Car was last polished (lightly) with OPS and topped with OCW in January, just did an ONR wash and topped with Opt-Seal. Only a couple pics, forgot to change the exposure setting on the first couple I had taken and they washed out pretty badly.

2004 Lexus RX330. I usually wash/wax his Acura MDX at his office but I go out about once a year to his house to detail his wife's RX. Overall, it is in excellent shape but she takes her dog with her everywhere. Pretty good about putting blankets down but dog hair still get everywhere. Once vacuumed though, pretty stain free. Leather/vinyl cleaned with Woolite/water, carpets with Bio-Kleen Traffic Lane Cleaner and interior dressed with Optimum Protectant Plus.





The exterior was in excellent shape. Just a quick polish with OPS and sealed with OOS. The plastic trim was dressed with Meguiars Hot Shine Tire Gel.

All look nice as usual Scott!

Did the 300 have the boston stereo? I ONR'd one tuesday that had one and it was about the nicest sounding stock stereo I have heard.

I really didn't even look inside, my son is the one who vacuumed it and wiped it down.
