A co-worker of mine purchased a brand new vehicle and brought it to me for my New Vehicle Prep Package + Paint Coating. He requested that the dealer not wash or detail the vehicle when it was picked up. It should also be noted that he drove the vehicle for approximately 2 weeks before I got my hands on it.

Process

Exterior:
Wheels: Griots Heavy Duty Wheel Cleaner with various brushes
Tires: Zep Formula 505 Cleaner & Degreaser
Wheel Wells: Zep Citrus Cleaner (4:1)
Pre-wash: CG Citrus Wash & Gloss & APC via foam cannon
Wash: 2 Bucket Method, CG Citrus Wash & Gloss via Microfiber Madness Sponge
Decontamination 1: CarPro Trix
Dry: Waffle Weave Towels
Surface Prep: IPA Wipedown
Paint Protection: Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0
Tire Dressing: Tuf Shine Tire Clearcoat
Trim Dressing: Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0
Glass: Sonax Clear Glass via Glass Towel

The wizardry continues.. how you made a deep red paint job into an even deeper and rich looking color is insane man, your work is incredible as always!
Also the attention to the little details you gave the wheels, they're stock wheels (I presume) and they look so awesome after!!
