Vette, BMW 550, Volvo

Once a month client. He manages to scretch the car up very fast (takes it to a car wash) and so I had to remove several of them randomly. Had a dog jump on the car too!

QEW
EC/rotary yellow pad
106ff pc green pad
Poli Seal to protect via pc
FK1 #108 on tires

One very deep scretch remained. Needs touch up.

Re: Vette, BMW 550, Volvo

1800 miles on it, belong to the wife, husband drives the 550

wash
clay
Poli Seal
OCW








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


I do this 550 3 times a year it seems.
The weather didn't cooperate so no swirl removal, except on the hood while the sun was out in the am. (The owner has given up on trying to have it swirl free. He washes the car weekly)

wash
clay (some sap here and there)
106ff green pad
CG's EZcreme glaze
CG's Extreme Top Coat (on hood)
CG's XXX hard core wax
Hyper Dressing on tires

Before:

All of them look really good. The blue Corvette is my favorite.

Incredible work on all the cars! How do you apply the Hyper Dressing to the tires?

Excellent job, I'm really digging the look of Hyper Dressing... I think I'm going to have to go out and get some!

Clean as a whistle!

You've definitely got the BMW details nailed down.

Well done on all of them!

Excellent job on that 550. What did you use to clean the wheels?
