[QUOTE="NastyGT500, post: 15726900, member: 75220"] [CENTER]2009 Hyundai Elantra Touring Edition 61,000 miles [/CENTER] [LEFT] During Hurricane Irma my mother’s husband lent Mrs. Sizzle their extra vehicle to use. (I could not get the garage doors open due to the power outage that we experienced as well as the numerous outdoor items that were placed inside the garage that were blocking our vehicles in. So as a ‘thank you’ I mentioned that I would detail his vehicle for him. 7 years old, a few miles, always kept outside and it has never, ever been waxed/polished/etc. It was in pretty bad condition. It was covered in major swirls, scuffs, paint transfer from unknown objects hit/rubbed against, some serious scratching, water spots and it had clear failure on the mirrors and door handles along with the black trim being hammered and the roof rack hardware’s finish flaking off. It was also covered in canon fungus and the windows were filthy, both inside and out. I had some new goodies from Blackfire to use (thanks again Meghan!) and knew I could make this thing look so much better as well as put some protection on the paintwork. Process/chemicals/tools/etc: Waterless wash with McKees N914. Clayed with Optimum nano bar heavy. Dodo Born Slippery as clay lube. Rupes MkII 21. Griot’s 6”. Misc MF towels. Defelsko paint gauge. Surfbuf pads. Red generic foam polishing pads. Red hydrotech finishing pad for LSP application. NEW Blackfire Compound. Spot compounded some heavier scratches with Griot’s MF pad and M101. NEW Blackfire Polish. Final wipe-McKees N914. LSP-Blackfire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection. Tire dressing: Blackfire. Glass cleaner: NEW Blackfire Glass Cleaner. Dedicated MF glass towels. Metro vacuum. NEW Blackfire Interior Cleaner on interior plastics/vinyl surfaces. Thanks for looking!
