    Re: gonna be a long weekend

    My wife was complaining about my jacking up the car in the garage so she gave me an early Christmas present last week. I recurve the Quick Jack 5200. Let me tell ya, sweet.

    Nice job sir, the wheels look great and so does the car, so all in how many hours did you invest this weekend on the Audi? Thanks for sharing Brandt.

    Dude, what you began with and ended with. Awesome job as always.
    Did the owner just not ask the dealership to detail the car (probably a wise choice)? But cant believe they had it in that condition.

    Re: gonna be a long weekend

    oh so after the polishing I used PA Centurion, then a few hours later after that cured I used PA Gold Zirkon

    the wheels took so long I had to call a friend who has helped me out in the past who also did the exhaust tips for me

    I was still finishing up as the customer arrived and probably missed a thing or two because I couldn`t see the car out in the sun so I really hope everything turned out ok for her

    thanks. I honestly haven`t the shortest clue how long I spent on this car. Are we counting the Hours I spent researching and calling people about the ffp issue as well? all i`ll say is that I`m glad to get this car out of my garage but disappointed I didn`t finish an hour earlier for sun shots

    thanks. not sure. all I know about the car is that it has 16k or 18k miles, is a 2014, was owned by a doctor (who obviously didn`t deserve to own a black vehicle) and now it`s hers....I still am a little confused about those wheels considering no bottle of spray I own was able to work off those stains.

    furthermore I`m also baffled how the ppf was the WORST part of the car?! this was like a twilight zone detail

    Lol. That is pretty sad. Even some doctors just shouldnt have nice things
    I remember working on a Lexus once that had very similar build up on the wheels and had the same experience as you and tried anything I had on hand - Sonax full effect, iron x/ bdx, megs wheel brightener...nothing seemed to work but just getting in there and scrubbing away at it which took me shy of 2 hours just on the wheels. It was like caked on greasiness.

    EDIT: Now that I think about it I think I remembering using Tarminator and that helped loosen things up!

    Looks like the PPF was washed with a scuff pad or steel wool jeeze but again nice recovery!

    client sent me this pic a few hours ago from the afternoon

    she is very happy and said "I didn`t even know a car could shine so much, I just stopped and stared at it after I parked at work this morning."
