I love a good before and after, and I like sharing the process for how I got there as well. If you are interested you are more than welcome to watch while I perform details, or I’m happy to send you a time lapse video as well.
This was a full interior and exterior detail with emphasis on black trim restore I did for a friends FJ Cruiser. The vehicle was 14 years old and the plastic trim had become grayed and dull. This project took two days, largely due to the time for the trim restorer to dry prior to coating. Exterior detail included washing the engine compartment, wheels and tires, doing a full wash rinse/wash/rinse/towel dry (due to level of cleanliness, actually required two wash cycles), windows cleaned. Interior included vacuuming and deep cleaning of the vinyl floor as well as cleaning and coating of all-season floormats, some pet hair removal, and cleaning of dash and electronics. Front and rear bumpers, rocker panels, and wheel flares were thoroughly cleaned, pre-treated, then treated with black trim restore service, and ceramic coated. Roof rack was ceramic coated as well. The before and afters of this are remarkable and the trim still looks great a year later!
This is the process of a fairly typical headlight restoration process on a friends Dodge Ram headlights.
This was a full graphene ceramic coating done for a friends F-350. This process took about 3 days to complete and included full interior and exterior details, polishing, and finally the graphene ceramic coating of the body and wheels. To date this is the most extensive detail we’ve done!
A full detail on a friends 4-Runner. This was approximately 6 hours and would most closely match Level 1 (with some Level 2) interior, and Level 1 exterior. Most of the effort was spent on the interior, as there was some some chemical stains in the cargo area, some carpet stains near the driver seat, and just a lot of cleaning needed, which is what we do best!
