When a customer tell you the car is:



Very dirty

Has not been waxed in 2 yrs since new (now at 29k)



Pray that you charged them enough. (I think I did)

You always mix RMG with your Menzerna? What about fpII? You do have your work cut out but I have seen worse. Interior and wheels don`t look bad, wheels even look done yeah?

[gmblack3]

Yes I have mixed it the last few details. Increases the work time and cuts down on the dust. I have not tried it with FPII yet, but others have with good results. Nothing has been touched yet. Wheels will get PB SnR. I may have to scrub the tire treads to get all that mud out. :nervous2: :rofl Will use APC and pressure washer for the wheel wells.

Could have been a lot worse, believe me!



Menzerna works very well on black G35s.

[Stickman81]

OH My. There looks like a lot of swirls there.

It looks like the drivers lower bolster is overdue for some conditioning or is it just me?

I know you will do a great job Bryan.

Wish I could be there to help / learn.

Looking forward to updates and the finished product.

Don`t forget to put the pretty lines in the mats. :bolt

[mav63]

Bryan, can`t wait to see the afters! I`m sure they will be flawless!

[GTScott]

Your project is worse than my project! Woohoo.



That does look pretty bad. The swirls in the paint look to be from more than 2 years of improper washes. However, like was said earlier, the interior does not look too bad. His leather seems to be wearing better than the leather in my 06 coupe too. Be careful on the perforations though. Once you get a glob of conditioner in them, it takes a bit to remove it.



It looks like I won`t be making it down today as I have a 9, a 10, and a 2. I am still working on getting some of that cancelled.

Could have been a lot worse, believe me!



Spoken like someone that does this for a living. ;)



Good luck Bryan...I know it will be blinging better than ever in your hands!! :waxing:

[awahl63]

Looks fun.

[imported_Picus]

You`ll be ok. :)



You might need a second IP/orange step; Infiniti clear is soft but is finicky with removal, sometimes more passes is better than more agressive.

[imported_Detailing Technology]

I have to say that the condition of that car is average. That should be zero trouble.

[gmblack3]

Thanks guys!



I updated above in the original post. Coming out very nice after 1 pass of IP/RMG. :bow

[imported_Picus]

Sweet; looking good. It`ll look awesome after FPII. G35 paint is pretty workable, just a little finicky.

[stilez]

I thought it would be worse :).





Came out very nice though. Any daytime pics?

[gmblack3]

Picus, I will finish with 106ff/RMG mix. :bigups



UPDATE II outside shots



Sorry its not the exact same shot on the car, but you get the idea.



Its not 100% swirl free, but it might be close enough. :secret

Friend dropped off his Rebel XT for me to borrow for the w/e. My new A620 should be in next week.
