That is beautiful work, really really nice. Appreciate the write up as usual!

1) Where did you get the drumsticks for the insides of the wheels?

2) What did you put on the tires?

very impressive~
We have been using Vintage for quite a bit now, just under a year now. Vintage is a great wax but very high maintenance, thing with Zymol is that you can't deviate from there process other wise you get disapointing results.

As for the wool wheel brushes, they are a pleasure to work with

Zymol Clear is very gentle, so we used it to give the entire interior a wipe down with it. Works great.

Sorry my mistake, HD Cleanse Pro was applied and then wiped off, just like in the paint. Then we applied a coat of Vintage on the wood trim.

Glad you enjoyed it P1et, now where to get the drumsticks.....unfortunetly due to paten issues these wool wheel brushes are no longer available. I was able to pick up two sets of these and that was that. I then tried to get another few sets but I was told that they were pulled of the shelf as they could no longer be sold....such a shame but such is life. I'm just glad I was able to get two sets for my self

As what we put on the tires...um...hmm......I honestly can't remember Justin wanted to use this prouct and I have to admit it left the tires looking great. Hopefully Justin will join and share what it was that was used on the tires.

Thank you all for the kind words and there are more coming, so grab some and maybe some and get ready to read

Superb detail and thoroughly enjoyed it.....Looking at ther graphs the range rover didnt actually seem to be laden with paint like i thought it would have...

The wheel brushes i have heard are being retried with a new glue formulation which to me is the best point about them through anything thrown at them they never fail and i have a back up set i would not sell for $1000 dollars they are that good....

I must admit hd cleanse is the daddy when it comes to paintwork cleanseing but 2 mins in my garage and id have to chip it off it just dries so hard im simply wipe on wipe off...

I like vintage alot and on the wheels really brings the flake out if metallic silver...

Looking at the Tyres they have the traits of zym00l Tyre to me a nice professional sheen and not too wet looking....

When i do interiors with zym00l treat and vinyl i must admit i use a microfiber pad and havent tried a foam applicator as i get good results but with some soak up.....

One question.....when black wow was used did you spray a paper towel and wipe the residue off as the silicon content in this product is so high without it the air i believe will not allow the silicon to bond with the trim and it will leave a sticky residue so i actually wipe it 2 or 3 times then finally have a special microfibre that i use to buff it up with hlf hour later...

Superb detail i must say!!!

Thanks for the comments, Phil! We were extremely proud of the vehicle, it now looks how a Range Rover should!! I wasn't there to drop the vehicle off due to a family emergency that came up but I guess the boys at the dealership were totally blown away...that's the best feeling of all!!

Thanks for your kind words! The paint was definatly not as thick as I would have expected to be either, but when isn't there a surprise somewhere when you're detailing new vehicles! The product that was used on the tires is called 'Black Jack'. It sprays on, leaving that nice look that isn't too shiny, or too matte, yet lasts and doesn't discolor the tire. Awesome product.

Had the chance to see this car at the show last night... amazing. But sad to see there seems to be already some fine scratches on it. And it is only the second night open to the public. I really wanted to touch it, to feel what this exclusive wax is like. But I just couldn't get myself to slide my rough hands on it.

But a lot of the other cars I see there... full of swirl marks....

Oh really that was fast I told the manager that we could be there to give the vehicle a wipe down prior to the show but he said he would have his guys do it oh well

I haven't had time to head down to the car show to check out the vehicles. I'm looking forward on seeing the R8 that they have there I'll remember to bring a microfiber to wipe the droole of my mouth hahahahaha.
