Peachstate Detail of Atlanta 2009 Black Lexus ES350 swirlified not certified

[gmblack3]

Client just purchased from out of state a certified or swirlified ES350, approx 40k miles. Issues where swirls, holigrams and overspray.



Process:

Wash

Clay

Light dry sand with 4000 micromesh to remove overspray.



Paint correction:



For compounding I used:

Flex 3403 rotary w/ Dynabrade, Meguiars 6" MF pad, M101, M105 and D300 mix.



Joey used:

GG polisher, 5" Meguiars MF pad, M101, M105 and D300 mix.



Middle step me:

Flex 3403 rotary w/ Dynabrade, Lake country flat tang pad w M205.



Final Step Joey:

GG polisher, 6" Lake country flat black w/ 205.



Applied 2x of Zaino Z5pro w/ ZFX



Zaino Z8



Tips cleaned by Joey with Blue magic and #0000 steel wool.



Tires Z-16



Wheels Wolf's Rim Shield- This was our first use of the Rim Shield as it just arrived from Phil At Detailers Domain that afternoon. Joey applied 3-4 drops to a MF app to start, then only needed to add a drop or two as he went forward. Joey applied to all 4 wheels and then went back with a damp MF to remove as per instructions. I read where some claim a good foaming and rinse will remove 80% of dirt and brake dust. I'll be trying this out on our new 535i GT when it arrives in a few weeks. Stay tuned...

Nice job Bryan/Joey. That hood has some serious depth too it.

Nice work guys. Will be interested to know how y'all like rim shield.

I've been curious as to what the differences between it and body wrap

are for a while now.

Great turn around Bryan! Paint looks like a true mirror. Certified pre-owned? PPPPFFFSSSTTT more like better-than-new pre-owned now!

If I had any computerification skills I'd create an image for Certified Tightness. Then every detail could be Bob approved, just slap the logo on the pics.

Wrong Bob, but right idea?

Thank you again everyone for your kind words! Joey and I appreciate it very much.

There would have to be levels of tightness.



Bob's level would be OT aka original tightness. The rest of us are just WBT- wanna be tightness.
