As they say...The Cats in the bag...
booked back in August for this past weekend drop off.
he used to own a Toxic Orange SRT 392 Challenger but, as he puts it, "added a supercharger" lol.
very cool client to have acquired. I`ve know him through the club about two years.
its always a nice site to come home friday after work to the car waiting in your driveway.
complete with this and the words "i trust you" which each and every Red key dropping Hellcat owner has said. And they`ve all been red keys except for one (which only had ~700mi-go mango charger)
he drove from the other side of San Antonio to drop, an hour and a half drive one way
the wash:
rinse
Bug squash and a hose knocked off the bugs on front end
snow foam soak from my gun
Poorboy`s SSS 2bm w ggwb
mitts
hit it with ferrex after, still didn`t bleed
SSS again for good measure and let`s ne honest I enjoyed it, lol
wheels: ferrex
sss wash bucket with the same brushes i only use on my wheels
sealed later with p808, I really like this on the hellcat wheels, so do my clients
tucked into garage
pucker factor level 10 feathering that 6speed into the garage
mckees new vinyl cleaner/protectant
taped off
my tape game is going strong these days, lol
that red, he needs to consider adding permanently IMO
the work: after multiple combos settled with
adapt via uhs, two slow passes each section
essence via rupes yellow pad, some areas i used the carpro gloss pad (hood roof trunk)
corrected
more swirls
corrected:
letting essence do it`s thing before coating
opt paint prep
applied CSL, took about 2 hrs to coat and then I applied a light mist of C2v3 and he had to take the car. i really need to have these cars more than 48 hrs because I have to work a shift at the day job Saturday... and sleep, haha.
here are all the pics i could get. sorry no sun shots, it was dark and i was running out of time...
i spent a lot more time polishing this car than I planned. he arrived hours early, can`t say I blame him, lol.
we hung out in my garage discussing my desire to upgrade to the shaker and looked at pics and he even searched for a few shakers for me. we discussed my business, marketing, sales, etc. i also educated him on products and showed him what he needed.
i gave him with a 32oz rtu bug squash
some wolfs mean green rw
32oz uber qd
a couple good micros
and probably a few other items I forgot about.
he tipped me a benjamin and brought truck back completely full of gas. awesome! he even said he probably should have paid me more after our conversation while he was there about how much work I really put into these cars. either way, I`ll have to say he is easily my favorite client! even said he will tell his father in law (or father, o forget) who has a viper that he will bring his car over here and drop it (that guy lives in the valley, btw- South, South Texas)
probably a pipe dream at this point but hey he`s the one who offered and even started planning out the logistics right then.
only one condition, he said..
I`d have to charge him more, as he reminded me im running a business and devoting time to something out of choice not necessity so i should be compensated accordingly.
i guess sometimes I get caught up and forget things like this
he travels for work so has been out of town all week but said he`d take some pictures soon in the sun so once I get them I will post them up here.
here`s what I took
