JJ, did you all actual detail the entire car but staged over time to allow photography?

bump.

My apologies, Bunky. Didn`t see that post. Looks like I was responding to the others at the same time you posted.

Not sure I follow the question, due to the "staged over time" part. Let me see if I can break down what we did.

Before I do, though, know that the car was in overall decent shape. Aside from minor swirls that I saw, it was kept pretty well. There wasn`t very much the clay bar was picking up. We had a bit of a hard time getting a good example for the show.

We did do the following:
- inspected
- waterless wash. We also addressed the undercarriage. Even the engine oil pan and tranny case were fairly clean. I did manage to soil an MF towel, but it wasn`t too bad.
- the "body" was covered in rexine, so that was treated like vinyl/leather
- the engine cover was polished both using hands (finger pockets) and machine on the bigger surfaces.
- the frame was also cleaned and gone over with the polish and finger pockets. (maybe someone also hit some spots with the machine?)
- interior was well kept, so a once over with some interior product
- I cleaned the headlights as best I could, given the wire mesh screen protectors
- wheels were cleaned w/ waterless wash as well
- tires. They were addressed, but I`m not entirely sure we hit them with dressing. I was um...on break..during that time
- engine was cleaned as well

I *think* the only part we didn`t go over was the top. We didn`t have RaggTop products on hand. During that portion (along with interior) I was on that break

I didn`t want to touch the interior myself, as I`m short and that car sat a too high for my comfort.

So I think it`s fair to say we "detailed" the entire car. All of it was done in the several hours we were there for the filming.

It was definitely detailed. The tires were not dressed since the curator that cares for the collection uses Griot`s rubber cleaner.

The seats were conditioned with Pinnacle leather conditioner and the sides of the interior were also dressed similar to the rexine.


The only things we didn`t touch besides the convertible top was the dash and metal. The owner liked the pátina look.
