The Ryan Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 So a friend of mine and his wife purchased new 2013 Ford Fusion, I asked him if he wanted to bring over for some new car prep. We started this morning at about 8am its was a great day for detailing, nice and over cast. I snapped some before shots before we began working: I got started with some APC and a the new Tire brush to clean up the tires: I then moved onto the wheels with Adam's Deep Wheel Cleaner and Adam's Wheel Woolies: I then cleaned the wheels with Adam's Boars Hair Brush: And then rinsed the wheels: Then I rinsed the car and prepared for a full two bucket wash: Zero water beading present: On to a full foam foam treatment with Adam's Car Shampoo: After a full two bucket wash, it was time to rinse it off: On to the clay bar treatment: After another quick rinse, we brought the car in the garage for a air dry treatment via the MetroBlaster SideKick: After we got it all dry, a prototype Interior Spray was used on the interior: I opened up the engine bay for a quick wipe down and dress up: 50/50 After a helping of Super VRT: Aaaaand the finished product: Back to the paint we went, since the car had no visible scratches or swirls and it primarily lives outside, I layed down some Adam's Quick Sealant: Adam's Quick Sealant was also applied to the wheels: After the sealant was applied, I decided the pearls in this while would greatly benefit from a helping of Brilliant Glaze: Super Secret Juice applied to the tires: I polished up the 1.6L Turbo's exhaust tip with Adam's Metal Polish #1: Something was still missing with the paint, I wanted to see more depth and pearl, enter: Yup, I treated the car to a full wax treatment with Adam's Patriot! Geez I'm really going bald badly... Under the light: Since the sun was finally out, it was time to get this thing out in the sun for some beauty shots! And my favorite shot of the day, showcasing this Platinum White's pearl.. Really Ford has a beautiful daily driver here.. This car is as nice to drive as it looks. The leather interior is top notch, and this car turns heads like you would not believe... Fun detailing day! Hope you enjoyed... I know I did: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure-Vision Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 That looks amazing!! If I was in the market for a car in that class, the Fusion would be my 1st choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluedogGMC Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Very nice job you did there. What a great friend you are. I wish I had a friend with a garage full of Adam's Polishes to do my truck. I have the supplies and just waiting for the right weather and time to get it done. By the way, nice pictures also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceofWill Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Nice job man but you must really like this friend to give him a coat of Patriot for free. Even I would have probably just gone with Americana and felt generous lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 That came out GREAT! I DO NOT have ANY friends good enough to do that for. Especially to use my coveted Patriot on. Mine sits in the fridge where's it's been since opening the box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacificNWBuckeye Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Nice looking Fusion. I test drove one when I was picking my new company car and if it had a little more room I would have got one. The 1.6L was smooth and didn't lack for power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
