Completed yesterday (oct 23rd)...Its a neat thing when people you don't know will sell your work to their family and friends even when you don't know them yet. After seeing some of my work, my new client's son showed it to his father who had been wanting his Tahoe detailed properly, and the father called me up. We talked over the options and set a consultation appointment. Upon inspecting the vehicle it was obvious another shop "attempted" to detail it and didn't quite get it right. Horrific wash-induced swirls a moderate amount of holograms and buffer trails covered this once nice black Tahoe. This client has an eye for these imperfections as well and wanted it to look factory new again. After discussing the time involved we set a weekend to carry out the correction. During the course of the detail it was decided to permanently protect the freshly corrected paint with Optimum Opti-Guard.
Correction process was some rotary/M105/PFW in select areas. Everywhere else was PCXP/M105+D300/MF cutting disc, followed by PCXP/Menzerna SIP/LC orange. This finished down beautifully with zero micromarring and zero swirls. Only a handful of RIDS survived this correction as they would require wetsanding to remove, which was not selected for this job. All said and done, 28 long hours went into this one. Onto the pics....
We start with wax/compound in nearly every crevice on the vehicle....fun
The obligatory "before" shot
The 50/50 shot that sold 2 neighbors on getting their Escalade and BMW done.
Properly corrected looking "ship shape" again.

Another example of a "quality" detail shop that attempted buffing the rear bumper....not failing once, but twice with burning through the edges.
Onto the driver's side....
Better....
