Ruby Red Tricoat Explorer gets glossed!

[Justins00ss]

So after doing the tuxedo black SHO Taurus the owners wife wanted her Explorer taken care of. The interior got a thorough detailing with Mckees and IGL products. Exterior got the normal wash and decon process. Paint was corrected using my G21, Adams swirl killer mini. M100 on a BOSS microfiber cutting pad knocked out the defects. Then Hyper polish on a white Rupes pad for finish polishing before being coated in IGL Quartz 2 year coating.

Sorry for the brief breakdown. Getting over a illness and just wanted to throw this up.

This Tricoat paint is unreal and definitely one of my favorite colors.

Looks fantastic, nice work. My MIL has a 2016 or 17 Explorer in the same color. I really like it as well. The metallic flake is perfect. Mazda has a similar red that as good. Makes the Miata RF and Mazda 6 look amazing.

Thanks guys. I had a gentleman just book a F150 for a coating job when he saw it on my business page. His exact words were "I want it to look like the Explorer!" Haha.

Definitely feeling better. Had a rough 24hrs with that dreaded stomach bug. All is going well hopefully now. Have a pile of work to get back to!

Yeah, that is one of Ford`s best colors. Someone nearby has that color on an SHO and the car is clean much of the time. It really catches your eye.

Wow, what a coincidence! I JUST read your post on the Tuxedo Black SHO that you detailed and posted that my wife and I recently purchased a used 2015 Taurus SEL AWD and asked some questions about detailing the interior (See https://www.autopia.org/forums/click...ed-coated.html)

Now this Explorer in Ruby Red Metallic, which happens to be the SAME color as my wife`s Taurus SEL AWD. Yes, the color is awesome and it is one of the reasons my wife REALLY likes the car. It is an eye-catching (AKA police attention-getter) hue and you ALWAYS do a masterful job on ANY vehicle you detail. Thanks for posting the pictures and short write-up.

Oh yes, I hope you are getting better from whatever ails you! (I assume when you said "just wanted to throw this up" it was no pun intended)

Thanks guys! Definitely feeling better. Managed to knock out a correction and coating on a Camaro today.

Justin, it looks great ! What did you use on the black plastic trim on the lower half ? The ruby Red looks very nice with a fresh coat of wax.

Excellent work Justin!
