Black Thursday........

**justin30513** · 03-08-2007, 11:13 PM

Well this was supposed to be simple day. I was going to do 2 of my weekly clients rides. One was an `05 Land Rover LSE and the other was a `06 Expedition......both black. Just a wash/wax and a coat of wax. (Washed a F-150 as a freebies while there). An easy 300.00 by noon. I was going to call it quits and work on my truck some. NOPE!

I pulled into the drive-thru at Wendys, and got a call while ordering......

"I just saw your truck. When can you wash and wax five vehicles?"

"Uhhhhhh.......what?" was my professional reply.

We met up at his business withing 15 minutes. We decided that I could do 2 today and 3 more tomorrow. We struck a deal and off I went. The insides just got a vac wiped down with DP`s Interior Protectant.

Here`s the exterior breakdown:

(Both recieved the same process.)

Wash.....

Pinnacle`s Bodywork Shampoo

(Washed with EDGE Wash ShMitt and grit-guard enhanced bucket)

Nice shampoo. Very lubricated. More lubricants than cleaners. Then again, I`m used to NXT! Did a good job though on black. No induced marring and did good in the sun on black. No spotting. Dried both rides with one large Guzzler.

Tires, wheels and wells....

Tires and wells got a shot of DP`s Exterior Cleaner then pressure washed. Wheel recieved a bath of left over wash water. The wheel were then dried along with a spray of Pinnacle`s Crystal Mist. Wells were dressed with No-Touch Wet`n Protect as the tires got a Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire treatment.

Paint......

Simply and only an application of Pinnacle`s new Spray Souveran. I cannot brag enough about this wax. I used it in full sun and on black with NO streaking. It left the paint soft.....as soft as any paste wax. My customer`s could not tell the difference! One spray per panell is all that was needed.

Here`s the pics....

Did I mention that the H2 has 26" rims?

2150.00 per wheel and tire!

Well atleast the wheels were easy to get clean front and back

haha nice job on both rides, its cool how they saw you and called you too.

It`s fantastic work. Very well done!

I gotta laugh about the Hummer. With that wheel/tire setup, the first pothole up here would make that ride eastbound and on the ground.

Anyway, Justin, hope it was a profitable day. Good lookin` work.

Gee, I guess you didn`t have to dress much tire, did you?

Heck no! Not much at all! Was harder trying not to get it on the rim!

I just dont get that whole huge rim thing. It looks so stupid, I know I have 20" wheels, but those come stock these days, and I actually have 4x4 tires.

They look great though, I may have to try that spray sovreign. I have alot of trouble with spray waxes on black.

Awesome. Nice to hear the advertising on your truck is working out.

**imported_Nimble** · 03-09-2007, 01:37 AM

Great work! and quick work hehe. Gotta say though, that Hummer looks more than retarded. I think the brakes look like about 6" rotors under those. Is the owner a rapper? Bank robber? the like?

**imported_DieselMDX** · 03-09-2007, 01:48 AM

Nice job hummer looks real nice i was watching Unique whips on speed and Lebron james just got 26s on his H2. They are massive.

Did the H2 have wax already on it? You where comfortable with the durability of Souveran spray wax?

**Scottwax** · 03-09-2007, 01:48 AM

Both look really good, especially for a quick wax. :up

Not feeling the rap video rims on the H2 though.

**3Dog** · 03-09-2007, 01:54 AM

I am so sick of you tempting me to try new products!!!!!!

:goodjob

**ed2065** · 03-09-2007, 08:35 AM

good job Justin, looks like stopping to get some lunch pays for itself sometimes

**sixty7mustang22** · 03-09-2007, 08:48 AM

Good deal Justin. Way to make them look great. Another day at the office, eh?:ignore

**Anthony O.** · 03-09-2007, 10:19 AM

Nice work Justin and great to see the good business you`re doing in your neck of the woods....I must say though that the H2 is, IMHO, plain dumb. This is just like some guys taking a Mercedes and slamming it to the ground and then they wonder why it rides like a dump truck!!

Eh, the H2 was never really anything like its big brother the H1 anyways.....to each their own

**tyoung** · 03-09-2007, 04:24 PM

Awesome work, and cool you got the call while ordering lunch

Like everyone else, don`t like the H2 setup at all, but you still did an excellent job on some BIG black trucks there.

The Hummers wheels are horrible. $2100 money well wasted.

Anywho, you seem to be a very efficient and busy detailer. Hope you get some good $ for those last minute details.
