Detailed Black Cadillac Escalade

[turbo_911]

Cadillac Escalade with 40k miles on it (it was in a small wreck before)

Client wanted 2 step paint correction and full interior clean-up

Process took around 15 hours in 4 day process (mainly after college)


Process:
M95 and UC on yellow pad and some places purple pad with rotary
M205 on yellow pad with DA
NXT 2.0 wax on black pad (DA)
HD 4:1 on engine
Interior detailer on dashboard
APC+ on seats and doors (had some kind of glue) then vacuumed
NXT Glass cleaner on windows

Washed it and then took some pictures.

BEFORE

Apparently it was detailed before me.

Had to remove this thing that was left from window visor

Carpet wasn't in bad condition, just needed good vacuum

And then the Sun came out, and it was a wonderland
Buffer trails were everywhere.

During

Decided to clay bar the car.
From this picture, I did just that area

And I got this result

Then turned on my light and saw some more scratches, lol

Don't mind my finger print...

Afters

And I LOVE this shot, because my car is in it, hehe

dang nice work, looks brand new.

on a side note do you know if its possible to buff out scratches on a windshield, used the rough side of a sponge and left fine scratches.

Yes, it is possible, but you have to use special polisher and pad for that. You can read about it here

I haven't tried yet, but all I did was just go over the window is PC but all it does it remove water spots and that's it. Doesn't remove scratches. So only way to remove them is if you read the link above.
