Ron's Midnight Detailing - New car prep

[Ronkh]

Finally got around to doing the kids new Jeep.

Who's freakin idea was it to get this thing in the first place !!!!!! AAAAHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!

First of all, this is the prime reason to use a leaf blower to dry (which of course i didn't bring) This sucker dripped for the rest of the night after being dried. Second, there is so much plastic cladding on it !!! Third, a small ladder is a MUST !

Process.............

Wash:
Dawn + PB SSS

Clay:
Riccardo
PB SW (full strength) (go ahead, yell at me steve)

Rinse
Dry

Taping this bad boy took over an hour (thanks to my friend Butch, since I wouldn't have had the patience) Next time I won't tape it.

SSR - 1 White pad Flex

Polish With Sealant Black Pad Flex


No before pix. Not needed.


Tape

Finished product, in no real order.

Wheel wells not dressed since I didn't bring a sprayer for the bnb :wall

Try Trim Restorer on the cladding first and you won't have to tape

Looks good, but will the kid appreciate your time and patience :notme:

I noticed that you did not list the TR as part of your process.:bonk:
If you use it as Steve has suggested you will never have to rely on the restoring part of the TR.
