Escalade, G55 AMG, Red Hummer, and a Saleen *56K*

[EBPcivicsi]

Just a few cars that I had time to snap pics of over the last week. These first three all belong to the same owner.



This Escalade mainly needed interior work, but the outside was full of bonded contaminants, IFO, etc.



Wash



Clay



PO106FF @1200 RPM’s via a green CCS pad



#21



Wheels were polished with NXT all metal polish, removed with rim ICE



Tires wear hyperdressing



VM on all trim

This Hummer was pretty interesting—complete color change, lots of swirls, and rock hard paint.

Next up was his G55 AMG wagon�this one needed some serious work. This truck was one of the most difficult vehicles to buff that I have ever faced. There were so many moldings, odd panels, tight spaces, etc that it made it almost impossible to “put a buffer on it.� I ended up using a lot of spot pads and I was forced to do several areas by hand.



EC/OP LC orange @15000 RPM’s

HT HC Meguiars yellow @1400 RPM’s

PO106FF wolfgang finishing pad @1200

Poli-seal via PC @5 SM Arnold finishing pad

OCW to remove

Wheels were polished with “wheels wax�

Next up is a Saleen that needed a little TLC. The owner had the hood resprayed and the body shop told him that the swirls were still in the hood because the paint hadn’t fully cured yet. LOL, I guess they magically go away after the paint cured.



Process for the paint was:



HT HC @1500 RPM’s via a green CCS pad

PO106FF via a wolfgang finishing pad

M26

OCW

Wheels polished with NXT all metal polish

Tires wear hyperdresing

This is what the rest of the paint looked like

Stunning details Joe -all of them! :drool:



I'm considering Hyper Dressing for wheel well work. Does it dry uniform if you spray it on the wells, or do you have to dress by hand?

 

[imported_superswamper]

Love the G-wagon. Looks great.



I assume the side exit exhaust is not stock.

 

[BMW335i]

Escalade looks hot..and the Hummer is actually one of the nicer modified ones I've seen.

 

[OCD Nick]

how many SUVS does one person need?

 

[imported_ajbarnes]

Absolutely amazing work!! :2thumbs: :2thumbs:

 

[01bluecls]

Good god man! Very nice correction work. I bet the G55 was a PITA due to all the trim and uneven panels!!!

 

[imported_topnotch]

Damn that looks good. You always amaze me with your paint correction.

 

[kkreit01]

Very nice job on all. Amazing!

 

[imported_GregCavi]

Stunning on all as usual! Guess you got lucky with that hood curing so quick.
