AmyAtAdamsAustralia Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Recently this SSV took a nice long (and dirty) country trip into the back roads of Australia. It encountered bug guts, heavy rainfall, dusty and dirt roads and the occasional strong winds carrying loose dust. When it returned, it was an absolute mess! The interior wasn't too bad however the exterior was another story. Heavy mud and dirt formed a new bonding relationship with the wheel wells, the wheels took on a nice orange/yellow coating and the paint, well, just look at the pictures below. What was done? Purely a wash, dry and wax in its simplest description. We didn't follow on with a mild paint correction this time round due to time constraints, but she is ready to go next time. Follow on after the pictures for a detailed list. Details on the detail; Interior- Vacuum, Glass Clean, Total Interior Detailer wipedown, Leather and Interior Clean and Condition, Carpet Clean and Scrub. Exterior-Wheels-1. Deep Wheel Cleaner and All Purpose Cleaner for the wheels and tires x42. Fender Brush and Wheel Woolie for the wheel wheels (after a blast with the foam cannon) x4 Paint-1. Foam lance with Adam's Car Shampoo/Waterless Wash mix (let it dwell for 5 mins)2. Power wash Rinse3. Foam lance again (dwell 5 mins)4. Power wash rinse5. Foam lance again 6.

LFairbanks Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Well Done. But I have to say, whomever owns that car, tell them to leave it home next time and get a truck. AmyAtAdamsAustralia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWolf Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Very nice! Black and very, very shiny, my favorite combination. I can't believe you did all that in only 3.5 hours, it would have taken me all day. Good work! AmyAtAdamsAustralia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNUKE Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) Came here from your FB post, nice work. Why the Glaze after the wax? After watching Adam's videos, I swear Nick advises the glaze before the wax. Edited September 9, 2014 by SNUKE AmyAtAdamsAustralia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 You can use BG either way Matthew! Over a wax will give it a ton of shine and gloss, under a wax will give it the same shine and gloss, but it will last a bit longer since the wax protects it.
