These cars are going to be in some magazine, not sure which one, but the guy called me today and asked for me to get to it as soon as possible so I'm doing it tomorrow.



I haven't taken a look at them yet but here is what I was planning on doing to them, let me know what you think.



DACP or SFP depending on what they need with a PC

#81 by hand

EX-P

S100



I don't have Souveran otherwise I'd use that, S100 is the nicest carnuba that I have. I've used this combo on other cars before and it turned out very nice. Only thing I was thinking is maybe I could hold off on the S100 for now and tell him that I'll come out the day that they are going to take pics of the car and put on a coat of Souveran then as well as give them a quick wash.



I was also planning on just wiping down the dash with a moist MF rather then use #40 like I usually do.



Any other suggestions that you guys have would be appreciated. Most expensive car I've done so far is a BMW 745IL so this outta top that easily. I don't usually have pics but this time I will.
 
What color are the Rolls and Bentley?



If dark, especially black, definitely try to get a hold of the Souveran. :bigups
 
Don't know the color, haven't seen them yet. I'd love to get hold of the Souveran but I think it's gonna be pretty hard by tomorrow morning.
 
I'd go with EX w/carnauba if you have any and the cars are dark, especially over #81. It will give you a very rich, deep look.
 
Well I worked on them all day today and they still aren't done so I'm going back tomorrow morning to finish the job. Here is something I noticed though, once the paint is clean on cars like this; then adding polish, wax, ect... doesn't seem to make that significant a difference.



Most newer cars look good after you wash them, but then after you polish it looks fantastic. But these cars had plenty of swirl marks and spider webbing and they still looked fantastic. I have some pics of before I polished and I'll hopefully take some after tomorrow if it's not raining so you can see what I'm talking about. Has anyone else found this to be true?
 
Well some people from the Washington Spaces magazine came out today and took pics of the cars. They will be in the January issue. I'll make sure to cut out the article and post it on here as well as get some pics I took online as soon as I get some sleep.
