    Well, I started out with a red BMW weekly wash Thursday night, so it wasn`t completely black, but you saw pictures of it last week so I won`t bother again.



    First up Friday afternoon was a black H2 SUV. It was just an Express Detail, but it has some damage from the dealer prep, so the doors will need to be polished out sometime.



    Process:



    Simple Green 8:1 on wheels/tires/cladding

    Eagle One Wet wash

    Evercoat`s Lubri-Shine QD

    Armor All on tires (all 5)

    IG on glass



    (Sorry for dark pics)

    Next was a black C6 Corvette on Saturday morning. These cars are really awesome! This one was in pretty good shape. The owner just wanted a good clean-up and some durable protection.



    Process:



    Simple Green 8:1 on wheels/tires/plastic trim

    Eagle One Wet wash

    Zaino Z18 clay

    Klasse AIO (including wheels)

    Zaino Z2 Pro w/ ZFX

    Zaino Z16 on tires and trim

    Mother`s Mag on exhaust tips

    IG on glass

    Zaino leather cleaner and conditioner

    Finally, Saturday afternoon, the owner of the C6 brought me his Denali. This is his everday work vehicle that gets taken through the automatic wash, so he wasn`t too concerned with swirling, etc. He just wanted a good clean-up/base that he could maintain with NXT.



    Process:



    Simple Green 8:1 on wheels/tires

    Eagle One Wet wash

    Klasse AIO

    Armor All on tires and wells

    IG on glass

    Zaino leather cleaner and conditioner



    (Again, sorry for dark pics)











    Saturday turned out to be an 11 hour day, and I was WORN OUT! But the owner of the Vette and Denali was pleased and I made some nice money, so I guess it was worth it (though frustrating at times).



    Thanks for reading/viewing

    Nice work Zane! Just like series1 mentioned..........That C6 is absolutely AWESOME!!! I love the first pic of the Z6. You captured the "bling" on the headlight cover and the rear rim. As for the 11 hour day you put in.............Hopefully you`ve got a bottle of Advil Liqui-gels in your arsenal! ( along with your favorite beverages )

    Your customer received a tremendous bang for the buck at $100.00.

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that the AIO was applied by PC with a polishing pad.
