2017 GMC Denali XL
Callaway Supercharged Special Edition
570 HP from Callaway, now around 650HP
8,000 miles


A client of mine wanted his family hauler corrected and ceramic protected so I got this big powerful beast onto my schedule!

The paint was in very good shape and did not need a ton of correction thank good ness, as I had a ton of real estate to cover already!




I started with a 2BW using Adam’s shampoo and a MF chenille mitt. It was then clayed using Griot’s medium mitt and the same shampoo as lube.

Rupes 21 MkII, Rupes 3” and iBrid were all utilized.

Medium foam pads were used with McKee’s 37 fast cut polish. Various MF towels were used.

Adam’s paint prep was used prior to the coating.

22ple Mistico Elemento Forte was the coating of choice.

CarPro Dlux was used on the running boards.

Pinnacle exhaust cleaner and brightener was used on the exhaust tips.

Blackfire all in one tire/trim on the engine bay area.

Wheels were cleaned with Adam’s wheel cleaner, Daytona brushes and a good wash. They were sealed with CarPro Hydro 2. The tires were cleaned with Adam’s tire and rubber cleaner and then dressed with Gyeon Tire.

The interior was vacuumed via Metro. Blackfire interior cleaner was used on all the areas that needed to be cleaned. Ultima Interior Guard was used on all seating surfaces and seat backs.

Glass via Blackfire glass cleaner.

The floor mats were doused with APC and then agitated with a brush and hosed off.


I cleaned a baby seat that was a mess as well…while dropping off the vehicle the wife inquired if I do such things and I said, I’m really not the guy to do this…but I did it and it came out great and she was very happy! It was vacuumed, I cleaned the surfaces with Wolfgang carpet/fabric cleaner and I then sealed it with some Scotchguard. It came out looking like new! Yeah! Autodermatology will also give your rug rats a clean area to enjoy!



As always, thanks for looking and comments are welcome!

She’s looking clean dude! If u did it by yourself, I bet it took a while

[grungy]

Scott - most impressive. Found a link to the Callaway info on these: https://www.callawaycars.com/homepage/cars/callaway-tahoe/

[Sizzle Chest]

Thank you! Fish: yep, all by my lonesome. Spent many hours on a ladder! LOL.

grungy: Thanks!! Good info you found there!

[richy]

Scott, looks great bud! How many Cheerios did you find in the baby seat? That seems to be a universal thing, LOL.

[Ronkh]

Cool !!

Looks great. Hot baby seat.

[Justins00ss]

Great job bud! You have some great clients!

[Mike lambert]

Excellent work!

[BadgerRivFan]

Great job and very cool truck! [emoji106]

So sad to see it used as a kid hauler/grocery getter [emoji53]

[jimmie jam]

Sizz, beautiful result!! I have an Avey that rarely gets taken out of the garage but I have to muster the "energy" to think about even wiping it down, LOL. I purchased it new so it`s never needed a "detail", thank you. These monsters can be a part time job, just like black paint.

[Lonnie]

I have to agree about the baby seat; looks like some fancy Recaro racing seat you`d find in an IMSA vehicle. Did I detect a baby bottle holder (AKA cup holder) in that picture???

Also, why choose the 22ple Mistico Elemento Forte coating for this application? Is there something special about this particular coating for this silver color or how the vehicle is used as a daily driver?? Inquiring minds what to know....

[Sizzle Chest]

Thanks for the comments everyone! A few handfuls of Cheerios! LOL

Yep, that`s a cup holder in that seat!!! Ha!

Lonnie: I really like this coating for a daily driver, HPC is great too, but the Mistico is just downright great! It`s also pretty user friendly. The beading/sheeting and looks are all top notch IMO. My client also wanted a high end coating so he got it!

I will bug you about coatings when I see you in the next few months!
