Pseto's spring cleaning

Sniz · 05-08-2011, 10:06 PM

Hey all. Detailed Paul's car today. Gave myself 8 hours to get it done, only took 7.5 lol. Full exterior with 1 stage polish and sealant plus interior.

Afterwards stopped by Crossroads Pub and got 2 dozen crabs to take back to Mom for her special day...so good.

As I got it, not bad really but needed some love for sure. The silver / light gray's really hide dirt and scratches well.

Products all lined up, instead of a list, here are some of the products.

Ready to start, looks great in photos already

washed thoroughly w cg citrus and clear, good stuff.

all clean right??

rear trunk and rear fenders only

tires being cleaned w Meg's tire cleaner

nice and brown

Sonax sprayed on

Red smelly ooze

Tried to get a 50/50 shot for polishing but it was futile......color hid all the damned RIDS that covered this car in photos.

After polishing, wiped down w ISP

Sealant curing

All done on the exterior!

oh and the tips, they are starting to peel whatever coating is on them.

cleaned up more after this photo

AND THE REVEAL

Wish I had taken some interior shots, turned out great.

Matt, I was looking for a good place to get a Spring detail and my search stopped here. I keep on forgetting how good you've gotten at this detail thing. I'll shoot you a PM the next I'm down in Maryland and can drop my car off at Adam's so you can work on it?

Or you can come over and kill 2 birds with one stone since Don lives on my street

He's more than a loser, he's a Laker fan

I can't tell if you're talking about yourself or me, but I know I'm devastated. Worst week in sports ever...1st Gary Williams now the Lakers

We're both Laker fans, hopefully they'll blow it up and start over. They'll be contending again with 1-2 years.

Unforunately, Gary left at a bad time and now no one wants to make the jump to the ACC.

How many jetseal coats? Put any wax on top of it after?

2 coats, no wax on top. I put wax on my personal vehicles after JetSeal but he didnt want that done. Would be real easy for him to add it now if himself if he wanted to. Paint is smooth like babies butt.

Keep your hands off those babies you perv.

And what's that nasty machine next to my Flex?!?

Nice job as usual, but what are those scuff marks on Paul's knees?
