    2018 Range Rover Sport

    2018 Range Rover Sport HSE
    6847 miles
    Fuji White/Ebony Interior


    New client brought in their recently acquired Range Rover. They were interested in a ceramic coating. Didn’t know anything about paint correction and thought the vehicle did not need any ‘paint work’.
    See my below ‘defect’ pictures…it tells another story and opened their eyes! So the Rover received some correction and protection!
    Paint was littered with swirls; gloss black trim was absolutely hammered.

    The ‘details’:

    McKee’s37 Iron Remover.
    2BW w/Gary Dean Shampoo.
    Medium Clay Towel.
    Adam’s Tire and Rubber Cleaner.
    Adam’s Wheel Cleaner.
    Master Blaster to dry.
    DeFelsko PTG.
    Scangrip Lighting.
    Flex 3401.
    Flex PXE 80.
    Griot’s Fast Correcting Cream.
    Griot’s Correcting Cream.
    Griot’s Perfecting Cream.
    22ple Mistico Elemento Forte.
    Adam’s Rinse and Coat to seal wheels/calipers.
    Adam’s Glass Cleaner.
    McKee’s37 Quick Interior Detailer.
    GYEON Leather Coat.
    Metro Vacuum.

    Thanks for taking a look!

    Sizzle Chest:
    I do not see this too often in the details you posts where it requires the three Griot`s Garage of Fast Correcting Compound, Correcting Compound, and Perfecting Polish to correct and perfect (as the name`s imply) this white Land Rover. I am not sure what criteria you use that goes into that detailing decision making process, but the results speak for themselves, or if you used the aggressive Fast Correcting compound in spots as needed, and not to the entire LR-HSE. Was this white paint used on the LR-HSE difficult to correct, IE, is it harder (softness scale, not difficulty scale) than most paints?
    Makes me wonder how a vehicle could get so marred with only 7,000 miles on it, but I assume automated brush-scrubbing car washes can contribute to this dilemma.
    Thank you for "educating" the new owner on what a swirled and marred vehicle really looks like.

    Not sure if this vehicle and a vast majority of Land Rovers ever get truly "off road" as they are designed for. You`ve got flooded streets from time-to-time in Florida (so I see on the Weather Channel) and I would think the LR-HSE handles those with aplomb.

    Great job as always.

    OK, I gotta ask (it would not be a Captain Obvious post if there weren`t some (stupid) questions):
    1) What is the white logo/insignia on your blue shirt reflecting in the black trim?
    2) Will you be buying more Garry Deans Shampoo in the future or are you using this shampoo up because you have it and don`t want it sitting around? It must be "OK" or else you would not use it again and again.

    Re: 2018 Range Rover Sport

    LOL Jimmie! YES! This one is right up your alley!!!! Thanks!

    Lonnie: Paint was medium/medium hard on my scale. I used all 3 on the vehicle: paint work and the gloss black-that`s where the majority of the perfecting cream was used. Paint received mainly Fast Correcting and Correcting.

    Yes, I believe improper wash technique, which would include automated washes, can/will/would/did hammer this finish.

    Yep! I think that 99% of these vehicles will NEVER see what they are truly capable of. Look up the Range Rover Experience and you can see (and do!) what they are capable of!

    "TN", Total Nutrition is a store around here, that`s the shirt!

    Once this gallon of GD shampoo is gone I will be going back to my usual product(s).

    I went on one of those Rover Experiences once.....Some of those angles they get at, they`re scary. I`m talking from INSIDE, of course.

    Nice work on this one Sizzle. Between you and Merlin`s Vette, both being white....makes me want to take my Jeep to the next level. Oh you guys. So much pressure!

    No way, man. I`m just trying to make it look better. Can`t shoot for your level of finish, as it will be taken off road. If anything, I shouldn`t even be polishing!!

    I`ll work on making it shiny enough so that from 10` away, it looks almost as good as this Range Rover
