    No Before`s Only After`s

    Had rain here for days and days so I knew yesterday and today, first sunny days in over a week, would be busy.

    Did several details and lots of washes. Here are a few of them.

    First up is a wash and vacuum on a silver SL500

    This is a rather odd, yet unique shot of the SL500 front end

    Very nice! I`m happy the only car I detail for pay is an SL also, it`s great to start to get know all of those lines and curves well after a while
    Treat it like it`s the only one in the world.

    Next up is a Lexus hood shot...the only pic I have of this car as the doctor needed it.

    I used FP with the Cyclo and then Fine Finish by hand on this one also. The FF looks great on silvers, especially 24 hours later

    I thought VM was a glaze? Why use it on glass?

    This really irked me I just pulled the Maserati out to inspect it in the sun and some lawn guy across the street starts blowing freashly cut grass out into the street and all over the clean car......ignorant noddle brain.

    Of course no detail day is complete without a Porsche:cool

    I used Fine Finish on this one last week and itheld up great with all the rain we had

    While it is a glaze it has nice cleaning abilities also. Gives the glass and chrome a nice cleaning while adding some sparkle
