Default CHAOS detailed: Dodge Ram SRT-10

The guy that i detailed the srt-8 for just picked this beauty up yesterday... had me detail it so he could take it on a trip this week. Didn't look too dirty at first but upon clay barring it... holy **** my friend. it was bad. only 5k on the clock too.

anyway here are some pix.

before:

looks pretty good right?






during:

defects were minimal.. and this was only to be a light correction detail so no biggie.


foamed...




and then the freaking skies opened up on me... i was only halfway thru the wash when it started raining... i took that as a good opportunity to use the rain water as lubricant for the clay



the roof was like freaking sandpaper it was so bad.

heres a picture of the clay from the passenger side door only


nice one i snapped during the rain



that was the last of the pictures whilst working... it was pouring and i wasnt too happy about it lol

so onto the after shots!







and to finish it off..

What kind of polish and wax did you use?

Might want to use dish washing gloves when you clay so your hands won't get all soggy from the water.
