ABUSED black sequoia brought back to life

[killerGLI]

I was presented with this monster back in August, but havent had enough time to put up the pictures. This sequoia had been destroyed by the owner's dogs, and frankly I was worried that the scratches werent going to come out. In addition, there was an incredible amount of swirling all over the car. The interior was no walk in the park either because all of the dogs were loaded into it, so can you say dog-hair infestation? I didnt get any pictures of the interior though due to some time constraints. Time: 15 hours



Here was the process:



Wash: cherry power for the wash then bug/tar remover to get all the grit off the front of the car



Clay: mothers yellow clay



Wheels: P21s wheel cleaner gel and some purple power cleaner/degreaser to get the tough stuff that P21s didnt get

I used the meguiar's endurance tire gel which actually worked great



Polish: 3m rubbing compound on an orange pad - 3 passes

3m ultrafina- 2 passes



Wax: Megs #26 - 2 coats



Befores: the nightmare

So hazy!!!!

During: just got two 50/50s

Afters: brought back to life

Reflection

That's all! Hope you guys enjoy and as always comments are welcome! :waxing:

Much improved! Too bad the owner's dogs will have it trashed again in no time.

Thanks guys! Yea it is a shame that it will probably be back in that condition really soon. But it was definitely worth it especially after seeing the customer's face! They actually thought it was a new car when I pulled into the driveway :woot: but thanks for the comments guys! I was thinking I might get some M105 and M205 but it is all so expensive I just havent found the need to buy it. Also, I dont get the results that everybody else seems to get with the P21s gel, idk if I am just doing it wrong or if I had a defect bottle. Suggestions?
