It could have been worse!

DTAILS · Feb 17, 2011

So I had a customer call and ask about polishing out his Black '07 Denali. He mentioned that he had scratched it after trying to clean it at a "do-it-yourself" carwash. The problem is that he used a brush that wasn't clean .........

Scratches were an understatement!

As I received it:

After I finished:

Just thought this would make for an interesting subject as a person can do what may be perceived as being irreversible damage and then have it turn out to not have been so bad afterall.

Looks great. I wish you were closer. When we bought my wife's 07 a few months ago it had scratches on it where a golden retriever jumped up on it and left some scratches. I haven't done anything with it yet, but it's next on my list now that the weather is improving.

Nice work you've done there!!! That came out good as new :waytogo:

This should be noted for others who may actually use the mistake of using a BRUSH that is normally for tires and the under side of your car on their actual PAINT :whymewhyme:

That guy should have paid you twice the going rate for how you turned his ride back around man. Nice job!

Lately there have been a wealth of Tahoes coming for polishing etc. People just don't seem to take care of their cars anymore. I have plenty of work coming because of it though!
Thanks

Thanks man! The first words when he & his wife arrived were "Holy Sh*t!!"

I had to laugh and have him promise not to do something like that again! LOL.

You wouldn't believe some of the cars we get in here. I have another black Tahoe for tomorrow morning and a Phantom Black GTO for tomorrow afternoon ....... we'll see what they look like.

Thanks.
Photography is another one of my passions ........... just recently lost all of my pictures taken over the past few years so I'm slowly building up the portfolio once again.
