328i Detailed: Range Rover Supercharged

Wash, clay and wax on the exterior and a full interior cleaning were on the agenda for this beast. Could have used paint correction which might be a possibility in the future.

Exterior:
Citrus Wash and Clear (Smells Awesome)
Megs Mild Clay
Megs ASD
Clearkote Red Machine Glaze
P21s 100%
Optimum Car Wax on jambs
Optimum Instant Detailer

Interior:
New Formula Optimum Protectant Plus(Smells Great and even better than the old one. My new favorite product over 303)
Megs APC
Stoners IG inside and out

Wheels:
CG Sticky Wheel Gel(Great Alternative to p21s)
Simple Green to clean tires
AA Tire Dressing

I know the rubber mats look dirty in some pics, but those were just scuff marks, they were all treated with Optimum Protectant Plus

Clean and shiny!
It must be hard work detailing big SUVs like a RR.

It definitely takes much longer than a regular car, and a step ladder is necessary for the roof.

Nice job!

I totally agree with you about the CG Sticky Wheel Gel. I picked up a gallon of it a couple of weeks ago and it really does a great job and is a very good alternative to the P21 Gel.

Thanks, I bought a gallon of the CG wheel gel as well and couldn't be any happier with it.

First I sprayed them with water to get as much dirt off as possible, then I sprayed them down with simplegreen diluted 5 parts water to 1 simple green, and let it dwell. After that I used a brush to aggitate and rinsed, repeating the process if any dirt was left till they were clean. Finally I dressed them with Meguiars All Season Dressing.
