The next victim for KBM

**gmblack3** · 03-30-2009, 08:37 PM

2008 Range Rover in Santorini Black Metallic (what else?) 30k miles.

Today I did a 2.5 hour wash, prep-solv and IPA wipedowns:

Tomorrow will be a long day of polishing.

Nice victim there Bryan, Happy polishing tomorrow

Just curious. Is it just me or are only owners of black and red vehicles who seem to want their cars detailed?

At least 75% of the vehicles I polish are black.

Good luck with it!
If you are using the Surbuf you may want to wear white or use an apron!!

Looking forward to seeing the finished product. Are you able to get a shot of the Surbuf in action? It`d be great to be able to visualize the pressure (or lack thereof) involved. I like how you were able to work 3 light sources into your first pic; and one twice even!

Thanks Kevin! I have a nice selection of older clothes to wear.

I will try to shot some video, but don`t know when I will have a chance to get it posted up.

The pressure is just something that you have to play with. I used light to mostly medimum pressure on this Range Rover.

Here is a quick 50/50 pic.

Original M105 7" surbuf pad PC6 water spritz`d.

Quick follow up with M205 and LC Black pad PC 4.5-6. I think using speed 6 left a little bit of hazing on the after area w/ M205. I will try no more then 4.5 later.

Thanks for taking the time to post the 50/50.

Looking good Bryan! That`ll be a serious workout on a vehicle with that much surface area.

Bryan...you`re such a glutton for punishment, aren`t you?

Todd, Its what I live for.

Raining for the last few days. It was pouring rain when I was give it an after polish wash today and trying to clean up the last bits of enbedded brake dust from the wheels.

Tomorrow the winds will be in the 20-30 knot range. So by the time I get it back over to the clients house, it will be covered in pollen.
