Sizzle Chest:
Was the 3x washing using the Adams strip wash/shampoo done by:
1) Initial wash to remove dirt and traffic film from GT3 as delivered by customer
2a) Iron decon
2b) Wash again
3a) Medium clay mitt and mild clay bar
3b) wash again
or did you wash it three times in a row, THEN do the iron remover, followed by the medium clay mitt and mild clay?
I assume the former as listed in sequential steps. I also assume that the Carerra white paint made any surface contaminates quite visible, hence the required steps as you noted to remove them.
And in the photo of the rear cargo area, the vacuumed carpet was not striped as I am accustomed to seeing as a signature-detail by you. Did you do this later or was it just too hard to do with all those contours?? (ONLY Captain Obvious would notice that!)
Is the AquaTek Singular ceramic coating a new offering for you? What do like and dislike about this particular coating?
Was this coating your suggestion to the customer for this particular Porsche white hue?

Looks fantastic.
AND, "Thanks" for moving the GT3 into the sun for some of the photos. I just do no remember seeing any of your vehicles that you have detailed photographed from that area of your driveway. The time of the day combined with the time of the year makes taking your customary photos in front of your garage and main house entrance "shade challenging."
 
Hi Lonnie!

Washed 2X first to remove dirt. Iron Decon. Then washed again. Then clayed a few times. No wash after claying.

I did not stripe the carpet this time! I started to do it and liked a `cleaner` look on this machine for some reason!

It is a new offering and I will be transitioning to using this coating as my main coating in the near future. I like the ease of use, gloss, slickness after it cures and the properties it provides. My choice on the coating.

Yes, the sun was not playing well that time of day for my final pics so I had to get some sun shots!!!

Thanks for the responses/questions/comments!!
