I almost feel weird making a blog post about this car because it needed nothing other than a wash and reapplication of wax for the year. It only has 20,000 miles and is in really great condition. I am sure when I see it next year, it will still only have 20,000 miles!
Mercedes-Benz S500
Robert brought over the first of his “fleet” for its yearly cleanup and this ole beast needed a light polish on the hood and trunk to removed some light scratching. This paint is pretty soft and I think next year’s clean up will involve a Basic Detail instead of a Wash & Wax to breathe some life back into it.
Kia Sportage
Kate has been a long time supported and good friend and she recently got back from an extensive road trip, bringing a good sized bug collection back with her. Nothing a Wash & Wax can’t take care of, along with the removal of dealership decals. All good and ready for more adventures!
Ford Explorer ST
Aaron’s wife had visited last year with her Ford Edge to have some scuffs removed after an…incident…with a garage door and he decided to have his new Explorer ST come by for a Spring cleaning. As much as I love jobs that show polarizing before and after photos of messed up paint, I do love the simplicity of a Wash & Wax.
Every job starts off the same for me: cleaning the wheels with FerreX and the tires with Power Clean. Then I foam Power Clean over the exterior to soak into anything that bonded to the surface. I also use FerreX on the body and T.A.R on areas that may have tar thrown up from the tires. Once rinsed, I wash with No Rinse, followed by using an Optimum Clay Towel on the body to remove any contaminants that can’t be chemically removed (using Optimum Car Wax as a lube). Since the Wax is the lube, when I wipe the panel dry, the wax is already applied! Synergy is awesome.
Porsche Macan Turbo
Eric and Neville have been bringing their trucks and their family’s cars here for a few years now and the last vehicle to come here is their mom’s Macan. A Basic Interior detail and a Wash & Wax was a nice way to knock off the Winter crud and prep it for the Spring and Summer days ahead. Nothing fancy for this beautiful car but a great refresher for any time of the year.
