I had a new client drop off his daily driven Camaro. He purchased this car new and was one of the first 5th generation Camaro’s in town. He loves this car and is going to keep it and give it to his granddaughter when she is old enough to drive! How cool is that!

The paint was in very good condition although quite dirty. It had a few small swirls; scuffs, a couple minor scratches, and the biggest thing were some hard water spots.

This nice 5th Gen really turned out well! Client is super happy to have multiple years of protection on the surfaces and will be encouraged to continue with his outstanding wash routines that have been going on for the past 5 years! (the car was really in good shape- thanks to his good wash/dry technique!)



Thank you, enjoy the pictures and as always, comments are welcomed!

Looks great.

What did you finish the tires with?

How do you like the PFM`s for drying? I just bought four 16 x 16 PFM`s and I`m thinking they might be my new drying towels. Do you recommend any sort of drying aid when drying w the PFM`s?

Nice work, great review as always.

Compared to the average car that graces your garage, that Camaro is about as vanilla as they come:)
 
Thanks everyone!!!!

Ron, it was filthy! He felt bad about it, but had to run to the east coast a couple times in it.

dschribs: I used Kenotek leather/vinyl conditioner on them. Makes for a helluva tire dressing, and lasts quite some time! I absolutely LOVE the PFM`s. I have not used any drying aid with them yet. Don`t think I need to, the towels are great!!!
