I`ve had my fare share of disasters for details. Really I don`t take them on any more, I don`t need to.

Did an X3 that was like that on the outside last weekend. Car hadn`t been washed in over a year and spends most of its time outside, the silver wheels were completely black and took 6 applications of IronX to get them `acceptable`. And it was black, of course.

Some people...

Stay strong!

I used to have a goat farm fleet. Needless to say and I am serious I would not eat lunch before doing the vehicles. The things and smells I cleaned out of those I even still got dry heaves.
Although I did his collector cars that was fun. I dreaded the "fleet week" I feel your pain. Best of luck!

I actually like cars like that personally, there`s a bigger difference in the final product.

I prefer to look at as there is an easier difference..! ;)

If you can take a car that most people think looks great, and make an appreciable improvement, that is a talent for sure!

Thanks for the support everyone :) Somehow I managed to push through and the customer was very happy. She said a friend of her`s would be calling soon because her suburban is filthy as well

I may need your support again soon :(
