Tropically Detailed: White Navigator and Blue GTO

The Nav was done last weekend, the GTO I early this morning.

Nothing to special, just washed/Zainoed/interiors, ect.. Infact the process was the same on both from what I can recall

Z7 Wash
Z18 Clay
P21s on the rims
Meg's Hyperdressing in the wells
Z-PC/Rotary/1500 rpm/white pad
3 coats of Zaino (2 x Z2pro, 1 x Z5 pro) followed with CS and Z8 wipe
Z16 on the tires
Z-AIO on trim, glass, ect...
Z9/Z10 on leather
Meg's Natural Shine on interior plastics
Meg's APC to shampoo carpets

Nav first







































Next GTO

The last application of Zaino was done 5 months prior. I started to rinse the car and realized how well it was beading so I have to snap a photo!



Then it was time to get busy with Z7 in the foam gun

Nice flakage on both Todd.

The paint just goes on forever on the big SUVs.

Re: Tropically Detailed: White Navigator and Blue GTO

Beautiful work!!!

I saw a guy where I was detailing last week who was getting his GTO tinted. The same color!! In & out. He said that was the very last one in the us. Just picked it up from god knows where.. He had to fly to get it.

Very nice color. It was swirled up though.

I agree that color is awesome. It is very similar to the Electron Blue that Corvette's come with.

Love the close ups of the blue flake and the leather embroidery! Nice work, as usual, Todd.
