Here we go again ...

Deep detail today ...

"5 step paint protection: (gentle wash, clay bar, light scratch removal, polish, apply a polymer paint sealant, and a final detailed inspection) Creates a dazzling shine and long lasting paint protection. Tires and wheel wells are cleaned and protected. Bugs and tar are removed. Exterior trim is cleaned and conditioned. Door and trunk jambs are polished." + Ceriglass windshield treatment

Did it dazzle? Just in time for those salty roads!

 

[soulsea]

Paint protection more effective before winter salt/chemicals, plus the previous owner was not as caring as we are ... now she looks brand new, maybe better.

Which is why I said just in time for salty roads.

Damn it, the one time you weren't being sarcastic! Sorries.

You've been put on the B list for the "R-Dubb Pooltacularfest 2013"

Tread carefully.

ROFLMAO... Sig worthy.

 

[soulsea]

Professionally done.

Better pics laterz.

Oh and the chrome grille/hood molding are back on.

Looks Good Serge! Didn't think you'd actually do it. Kinda digging the matte black vinyl wrap too.

You should think about putting more meat on those tires?

That all chrome appliqué in the rear hatch are the only eyesore I see with the Escalades. Switch out now.

Did you Opti-Coat it?

very nice!

No I didn't ... I (and most people familiar with automotive paint) are very skeptical of any product claiming to be an 'add on' layered clear coat. This is because true clear coat must be applied to a freshly painted surface with which it chemically bonds and cures. Applying clear coat later on does not allow for that process. So you're essentially adding a layer of another chemical to the paint. There's nothing inherently wrong with that, but I'd rather properly maintain my finish than mask it. That said, I don't know enough about this specific product to comment either way, I'm just speaking in general terms.

If that got meaty tires that would clean AF

Haha yes I know how opti-coat works haha. Yeah I used to think that then it started making some sence (Don't really like it but it is a great concept) you can take it by machine polishing but you seem to keep your rides nice vs. the soccer mom who needs opti-coat because it get washed 5 times a year.
Btw opti-coat doesn't last a lifetime as well so whoever you go to next and tries telling you that it's a lie.
Whoever did that did a great job...
Trucks looking nice. Refreshing to see
Do you know who did it? Wondering if they're on Autogeek

Soulsea, what's the name of the rims you have?
