What do you use to clean the brake parts?

Holy crap, they must have used freaking sand paper to wash that thing with. Honestly, I like the "new" 50/50 shots better than the other style. Great work, especially with this one.

Fantastic job. I'll never understand people who buy $200,000 cars but run them through an automatic wash like that. My customer has a GT Speed and he puts handwashes it and has it professionally detailed once a month @ $175 each time. He does make 5 million a year though.

Fantastic job! I can't believe the paint was in that bad of shape.

Do you mind sharing what the customers total bill was for such an intense detail job?

The question of cost has been asked in previous threads and addressed in them as well.

As always Jeff, superb work! Looks like you've been super busy which is always a good problem! I've been to busy to really post up anything worthy but it definitely makes me smile and appreciate what we do when I see a well written detail like this. Keep it up bud!

If you'd like to send a little of that M101 my way, I'll let you know...

Bet that 101 came in handy. Scary when M105 and Surbuf won't do the job, I'd imagine.
