This vehicle belongs to my wife's grandfather. Unfortunately they get the "opportunity" to watch their step-great grandchildren on a far too regular basis. Nothing against the little ones, but their parents thrust them on my wife's grand parents, sort of a form of free day care.
Wife's grandpa is also a GM retiree (the old Norwood plant). He certainly takes pride in his GM.
Keep in mind I spent the majority of the time on the interior, the paint wasn't in HORRIBLE shape but needed a little care. I ran out of time and daylight so I didn't give the paint the full treatment I wanted.
Exterior:
Soak, and then spray down with 10:1 degreaser
Wash with Hyper Wash, rinse dry.
claybar certain spots.
The hood was treated to PC/8006/83, PC/9006/9, and Hand/Foam App/26. I planned to do this for ALL horizontal surfaces but time didn't allow.
Rest of the car was hit with PC/8006/66
Under hood was hit with degreaser, brushed, rinsed, 2:1 Hyper Dressing.
Tires got Hot Shine, Glass got Stoner's Invisible Glass
Interior:
Mix of APC 4:1, and then some Zep Commercial Premium carpet shampoo.
Brushed the hard to reach areas, then used the PC on setting 6 (great setting), with the PC upholstery attachment from autodetailingsolutions.com.
Enough of the boring stuff, make with the pics already!
Befores:
After Wash:
Grandkids + Interior = detailer's nightmare (or dream come true?)
AFTERS:
No flash:
Flash:
And where we really shined tonight:
Lots of fun. My in-law grandfather was VERY enthused about it when I brought it to him, and that was the best part!
