The owner of this daily driver hardly ever even washes her !!! I did not think the chrome wheels could even come back as well as they did. The Black Metalic Paint really cleaned up nice with Meg`s Speed Glaze after a thorough clay and wash. I sealed her with Poorboys EX.
I spent about 25 minutes on the wheels and was forced to use AM`s Spoke to bring them back !!!
The interior was pretty bad, and the air compressor was working overtime to get all the crud out of the interior crevices.
Not even close to the worst I have seen, but a project none the less. Enjoy...

Wow!! Looks AWESOME!!!! That car jeep was a complete disaster. How can someone drive around in that?
That is a contestant for the extreme contest for sure.
How does it compare to the navigator? ;)

No kidding--I can sort of understand how people don`t care about the outside of their vehicle, but that interior was deeesgusting.
I wipe off the Taco Bell seat when I`m wearing Carhartts. I can`t imagine getting in that Jeep wearing a suit:nono
Great work!

This GC was like spring training !!! I have been detailing pristine collectibles and high end resale cars all winter. My soccer mom and SUV (cafeteria on wheels) customers have started calling this week for their semi-annual detail.
Give me strength !!!
That Navigator is still my biggest nightmare, but their have been a few competitors that strived to meet that sub-standard level of disgust !!!:D

Eh... I`ve still got a month before the wave hits. The temperatures are still WAY too cold for me to be willing to start for the season.
My rule is the first weekend I can, I detail both of the vehicles that reside at my house, and do the "spring cleaning" to the garage (pull everything off the walls, vacuum/hose down/scrub everything, powerwash the floor and the rubber mat, reorganize my supplies and make sure all the towels and applicators are clean and ready to go.) -- after my vehicles and garage are taken care of (so I can be presentable to customers) then I start taking appointments.

http://www.scottwax.com/rice/videos/smilies/eek4.gif That`s even worse than the RX300 I did today!
Great job on the interior and wheels especially. I`m with the others, I have no idea how people can let their vehicles get so nasty.

Dean,
That is a great job on the interior, I mean a great transformation:xyxthumbs
By the way,,,,I will send your Optimum Car Wax off tomorrow and also a sample of the Optimum Car Polish. I have been wainting until the polish came in so I could send both at the same time.
By the way...shoot me your mailing address again in a PM....and sorry I did not call you today, was busy doing taxes and running some errands. I`ll call you tomorrow.

werd. I don`t even know HOW people make a mess like that. Only person who`s interior I`ve seen worse than that was a guy who is a chain smoker.. That one I understand because he just threw the cigarette butts where ever a spot was. Lucky he didn`t set the interior on fire....
