  • Volvo V70

    I detailed this car already last summer but in between the only water she has seen is rain. So the owner contacted me again to "restore" the finish (mostly dirt) and most importantly he wanted a bit of protection as the winter is coming.

    Products used:
    Meguiars NXT Car Wash (wash mitt, water magnet)
    Meguiars Hot Rims All Wheel Cleaner
    Meguiars Quick Clay Detailing System
    Meguiars #83 Dual Action Cleaner/Polish
    Meguiars Gold Class liquid (two coats)
    AutoGlym Extra Gloss Protection

    Before (the car has a "good" shine on some of the before photographs. I wasn't able to capture the real dirt; but the rear photographs give you a good view on the car's general condition)







    After (getting dark outside)





    After (today, four days after the detail, I made a quick pass with Quick Detailer as the car has been outside day / night and it has been raining almost 24/24).





    I also detailed the interior but I don't have any decent before photographs. The usual stuff though: some dirty spots on the carpet, leather seats (black) looked a bit grey, lots of clutter and garbage, dust, mud on the doors (kicking them open), ... The only after photograph:



    I'd like to add that I just love products by Meguiars. I was able to dry this car (and it's a huge car) with just one water magnet! Wonderful product!

    Nice job! That before shot of the tire and rim hurts. That would drive me crazy if mine was half that dirty.

      Nice job on the detail. By looking at the wheels, it seems the car had not been washed in a very very long time.
