Hey guys, well, I guess I was long overdue for a swirled up car and this car was actually brought to me on Friday, and I had it over the weekend so I really had a chance to detail the car to my liking! The car was extremely dirty because the owner had recently taken the car on a road trip, but I forgot to take before shots, the interior was in "OK" shape, but it needed a good cleaning and the leather needed some attention, the engine bay needed a cleaning badly and as you will see, it turned out pretty good! The wheels also got special attention, they had been neglected and had probably never been touched on the inside of the rim :hairpull
Not to mention how bad the car was marred, but I'll let the pictures do the talking....
Exterior:
-Wash with NXT wash and the Schmitt
-Clayed the car using Pinnacle's Poly Ultra Clay
-Wheel wells and wheels cleaned with Meg's APC Cut 10:1, pressure cleaned, and then dressed the wheel wells with Armor All Tire Foam
-Tires are wearing Armor All Tire Gel (An awesome product to say the least, shines awesome, no sling what so ever! I can vouch for this because I put some on my White Mach 1 and had no sling :spot )
-Engine degreased using Simple Green Cleaner Foam, then it was pressure cleaned, Armor All Tire Foam was applied after this, and then today I wiped it down with Meg's Hyper Dressing cut 4:1
-Optimum Compound via LC Orange pad
-Optimum Polish via LC Orange Pad
-Jeffs Werkstatt Prime via LC White pad
-Jeffs Werkstatt Caranuba Jett :xyxthumbs
Interior:
-Vacuum
-Meg's APC 4:1 for carpets/mats
-Meg's APC 10:1 for door panels/sills/tough spots on leather
-Pinnacle Leather Cleaner/Conditioner for all leather surfaces
-Meg's Hyper Dressing cut 2:1 vinyl (dash, door panels, etc.)

Pictures, Clay after 1/4 of Roof!!!
As you can see, there were still some random deep scratches, but I really didn't want to cut all that much and I was fairly happy with the way it came out..Anyways, here are some interior shots and then the goodies!
Engine:
Exterior completed!
You can see how nice the wheel wells turned out in this picture below

I guess he didn't think I did too great of job or maybe he was mad at an 18 year charging him $200 for 10 hours of work??? Whatever the reason, its nice to see your guy's compliments, at least someone appreciates all of the work I put into the car.
