    Pics from my 12 hour day

    Its finally over. I started at around 9:15am today and ended at 9:30pm. I started out by just doing an exterior wash on a new Expedition than detail a 99 Ford Explore. It has never been waxed before. They are going to sell it so they wanted it cleaned, and thats what they got haha. I started with 3M Rubbing compound with my HIgh Speed Buffer. Then did 3M Swirl Remover with high speed buffer (actually the Perfect it III Machine Glaze) and then put Klasse High Gloss Sealant on. I then dressed the exterior and did the interior. I steam clean the carpets and seats and then cleaned and dressed the interior. Finally I washed there Expedition. Wow what a day. here are some pics...

    Nice job, man!

    Where are the after pics of the mats? Hmmm...Anyways, truck looks great. How long did it take you with the 3M Swirl remover? I tried that last time...results were great, but it took me a LOOOONNGG time. I`ve just recently achieved better results in a quicker time with Hi-Temp`s Light cut remover followed by Top of the Line`s Trade Secret wax.

    Hope you can post more pics!

    Sure, it`s shiny, but how smooth is it, and how does it look in direct sunlight?

    I`m agree with Jeff, it would also take me all day to do a job like that correctly.

    Looks good and I agree with with Jeff and Boss on the amount of time. A couple of cold ones taste much better after a day like that.
