With the the freezing weather the car got ONR'd without debate, a 5minute pre soak on the lower panels I felt necessary... it was a quick 5 minutes, I was a wee but chilly :shrug:

I did the ONR wash indoors with the heat on, first I let the car defrost...

Once I thawed the car with ONR and clayed it I dried everything. Wheels treated with a few coats of opti seal

This is clear film installed by Phil and his crew from DetailersDomain a few months prior... hands down some of the best film work I have seen... notice the lack of orange peel?

Winter prep? We're halfway into it already lol! Great work btw Bud, I always enjoy the threads that have "during the wash" pictures
 
Wonderful job:bigups....We really have it good out here in California, don't know if I would want to deal with that freezing weather out there. Very clean and organized work area as well.....:xyxthumbs

Great looking work.



Too cold for my old bones. :)



Thanks Bryan!
 
I know what cold winters are all about, I live in Canada. I am surprised clients actually bring you cars to detail during the winter. Out here people barely wash their cars during the winter months. It must have been quite a pain to wash the car in that cold.



Keep up the great work Dave!
 
Very nice Dave. I love them cars. Thats a great everyday driver there. How was that package? Did you play with anything yet?
