Outback Sport and Kia Sportage Detailed
Did a couple of details this past weekend.
First belongs to Nasioc RedneckTrucker's "GF", she got this Outback late last year and had a few tiny surface scratches that needed buffing out and wax applied. Washed with ONR Scratches buffed with Meguiar's DACP and a Meguiar's cutting pad NXT applied with a grey finishing pad Wheels/tires cleaned with Meguiar's All In One Cleaner (3:1) Tires dressed with Meguiar's Hyperdressing (3:1) It started to rain/drizzle about 2 mins after I finished it up, but at least it was protected and scratches were removed.

They both look great and appears you removed some swirls fairly well with a cleaner/polish. I was just wondering why you didn't detail clay either vehicle especially when you did swirl removal on the old Kia?... I am glad to see you are using quality products. But, why did you do two cutting passes on the Kia? You usually need to use a light polishing pad or finishing pad after cutting the paint to remove an haze from the cutting pad. I understand you didn't use a compound or even a abrasive polish with the cutting pad. If you are going to do to passes on the whole car you might as well use a cutting pad with swirl remover(compounding polish), and follow that with a light polishing or finishing pad with a light finishing polish. Just makes more sense IMO. But if you and the clients are happy with the end results you can't argue with that.
Please don't be offended of me being critical. I am a detailer so the sort of things jump out at me and make ask ?'s. I anything, others can learn from your techniques and what I am say as well. Happy detailing and keep making 'em shine! Shaun D. Shaun Shines Auto Detail of V.B., Va. |
