I performed both of these details last weekend in a NYC parking garage. It was about 80* and dry down there with ample lighting, hot/cold water, etc. I was pretty pleased with the conditions to work in considering it was 42*, windy, and gray on the outside. The owner contacted me saying both "needed detailing". He wasn`t kidding :).
First up, the 2006 Range. Man, what an absolutely stunning vehicle. The interior in this gem rivals anything I`ve worked on minus the Aston. The paint was slightly soft and oh-so-tarnished. Detailed by the dealer when new and washed inappropriately, the pictures tell the tale. I actually went with identical processes on both vehicles and they proved victorious. My total day went just shy of 13 hours with travel.
