dipolley Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 My newest client just bought a 2004 CLK500 that came from Arizona. Not a bad looking ride. It is a true hard top coupe, V8, and was thrashed from years of Arizona sun and sand. I was very responisible with this car because I wanted nothing more than to let it off its leash when I picked it up. It was slightly prepped before I got my hands on it. When wet there was absolutly no beading and had no protection on it what-so-ever. Normally I would have done this job at the shop (42-mile drive), but the client works 1 mile from my house (I can see his office when I walk my dog). Because I live in a condo I actually had to wash the car at a hand car wash down the street. That being said, here is the process I used: Wheels and rims treated with Green Wheel Cleaner and APC High presure wash with water only Waterless wash Waterless wash engine bay/ SVRT / I&O Clay Head light polishing with 4-inch pads Polishing of exhaust tip with clay, APC, and 4 inch orange pad SSR and Green pad on Flex SHR and Orange pad FMP and White pad Quick Sealent Leather and Interior Cleaner Leather and Interior Conditioner Brilliant Glaze Americana Vacuum In and Out Spray VRT Final inspection with Detail Spray and double and single soft towels. Before After The final delivered vehicle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dipolley Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 Very happy client indeed. That job from the time I picked it up until I got back home was 8.5 hours. All in all it was probably only 7 hours of work. If I had done that with a PC it would have taken much longer. I love the Flex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK427 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 That is some great work my friend, I can't wait to start my season (out of my garage of course, but wish I had a shop to do it in) on the side of my new job, as an all around fleet detailR now. Boy that's flex is sure an asset I’ll say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
