Chris wanted some zaino on it since it was going "North of the Boarder" for Christmas.



We finally have some rain here and the durango sits outside 24/7. So it was just a little dirty:

Process:



Rinse everything off with pressure washer at a safe distance.



PB SnR on wheels

AM red hot APC 1:1 on tires and wells.



Foam it up with: 2oz of CGCW & 1oz of Z6 and the rest water in the 32oz bottle for my foam lance.

Let foam dwells while I scrub tires and wells.

Rinse everything off with pressure washer at a safe distance.

Re-foam with 2oz of Z7 in 32oz lance bottle.

2 bucket wash.

Dry with WW towels



The following process was done on on paint, trim and glass:

ZAIO/white LC VC pad/metabo 1500.

2x Z5pro with ZFX.

Clear Seal

Z8



Tires get Z-16 and wells too with same cotton app used on tires.

Wheels get ZAIO.



Interior:

Vac

1Z CP wipedown

Glass cleaned with IG

Drivers mat got a quick cleaning with blue coral carpet cleaner. It worked ok as I did not have my carpet cleaning supplies with me. I found it laying around the shop. :nixweiss

Thats a sweet looking Durango. Ive always liked the older ones better, but those tires do something to it.. Makes it look 100% better.



Sure seems like its holding up good for 110k! Interior looks good as new! Has he had any trouble out of the engine or tranny? Weve got a Jeep with the same drivetrain.

Thanks Howareb! I also checked the tire pressures and added some washer fluid mixed @ a 0°f ratio.

Thanks David! Is Magnificant the wheel cleaner? I`ll have to read more about it. Red Hot or 777 APC work great for me and at under $10 a gallon....You can`t beat them.
