Joyriide Detailed: Jet Black E90

This is a repeat for the customer. He got his car detailed and corrected, but has since done a bit of modding which has led to time in the shop, which has led to wash monkeys dancing on the paint, which led to me removing a bit of the marring and swirls it had in certain areas, along with a lot of light wash induced marring.

Customer gave the me the nod to let me know I could do what I want. We also decided to go with Zaino after the polishing was done, of which he supplied all the Zaino Products. Began work at 9:25am and finished @ 7:25pm exactly. Jet Black is not the kindest of paints and is definately one of the softest but most stubborn paints at the same time. There were a lot of RIDS (random isolated deep scratches) which would only lightly fade even with the heaviest of compounds and pads. No shame, the end results were amazing.

Exterior

Gold Class
Menzerna Wheel and Tire
Meguairs Super Degreaser (wells)
Zaino Clay Bar via Megs Last Touch
Extreme Cut Leveler via Purple Foamed Wool Pad @ 1200rpms on select areas
Menzerna PO106ff via Finishing Pad @ 1200rpms @ 1200rpms entire body
Zaino Z5pro ZFX'd x3
Zaino Z6
CD-2 Engine Detail inside wheel wells
Zaino Z16 on tires
Poorboys Wheel Sealant via #00 Steel Wool on Chrome tips

Engine

Engine was just given a wipe down since it was still looking great from its last detail

Interior
Zaino Z10 on all surfaces
Meguiars Quik Interior Detailer wipe down

Polishing Vids

ECL and Wool Pad


106ff and gray pad

During



After polishing and alcohol (1:1) wipe down










And one of the happy detailer!


Full Afters















So now after a hot shower and a real meal, I'm ready to relax and watch some TV.

G'nite folks.

Haha. You need it.

I really wanna make the trip. Only problem is that my prices really don't justify the expense and time traveled. Infinitz had the suggestion of staying at a hotel but then the issue of having to wash and dry my towels, applicators, polsihing pads, ect, everynight. Scheduling is also another problem. Who wants what? Not all details are the same. With school and work, I just haven't been able to regroup and think this through completely.

Joy, you got a high capacity washer and dryer right at our house bro. I am telling you, there are PLENTY of people willing to have the work done. I know there is a way.

ive got a guest bedroom but i live at a condo with no real place for washing the car. its 1 of the things that really pisses me off about it. the reason the cars so dirty is they're doing a ton of construction right at our entrance so no point in cleaning it.

I am more than happy to let Joy use my oversized garage to do his details and washer and dryer for towels. Any kind member in the Waterford lakes area want to throw up a bed for this man so he can come work his magic for us ?????

It could start at 150 and end at 450. It all depends on your expectations and the condition of the car, along with how much time and money I ahve to spend on it. If you really wanna talk about this, send me a PM and I'll describe to you exactly what is what and how much.

JOY
