    evo X detail

    I did a detail on a evo X recently. I have been very busy lately and haven't had the time to really post a lot. This particular detail was a moderate detail.

    -pre-inspection
    -professional wash utilizing pressure washer/foam gun
    -inspection
    -paint decon utilizing poly clay and Iron X
    -paint correction utilizing microfine polish
    -paint protection utilizing Blackfire high grade carnauba

    Before, can't really tell as it really is not that dirty, but definitely needed some decon and correction.

    This was a close up before paint decon process. As you can tell you can see lots of little particles that made its way into the paint.

    This is why clay sometimes is not enough to fully decon the paint. There are particles that need a different approach. Here you can see the solution reacting with the particles.

    After decon process is complete.

    This is after paint correction.

    Then after wax.

    Nice results... I notice once you going into detailed inspection, you starting notice imperfections. Congrats for the owner to have it restored like band new condition

    Thanks guys! Juan, yes that is because I need to make sure I address everything because it all goes hand in hand in the detail process. I love detailing it is a passion for me and something I happen to be very good at. Pics speak for themselves as well as my feedback.

    Well what I do is professional grade on a whole different level cause even most "professionals" don't even have the products I have.
