11 second Trailblazer SS correction
This Trailblazer SS came to me from a local forum member and long time friend. This is his wife's daily driver which she also races at the dragstrip. Has intake, LT headers, Corsa exhaust and a 100 or 150 shot of nitrous (depending on what jets are in it at the moment). He wanted a 2 step correction to get above 75% correction and I think we safely accomplished that Overall I'd say its 85-90% correction. Here is a quote from the owner who posted it up on a few of our local forums.
Process
Exterior
-Foamed with Dawn
-Rinsed and Dawn wash
-Gloss-It Wheel Gel

It is no joke how many rock strikes, small chips and imperfections were in the paint from all the driving she does. Here are a few before and after pics. We couldn't be happier!

Iv been checking out all your projects and they always look amazing when done!
Iv got a question for ya? Have you ever used the 3M 3 Step Process? If so do you like the products you use better? If so were can I get them. Iv got a black car and I do a lot of detailing for local buddies and Im know for the kid that can make a black car perfect. Just looking at my options for buffing and detailing products. PM if you need!
