if your the person that after detailing your car, stares at it for an hour, goes inside for 15 minutes than catches yourself back outside lookin at all angles from different distances, and another 30 mins later...ect...you know what kind of person i am....this goes with almost everything however....its a obesession/pride deal

Thanks again, guys!
I didn't really like buffing any area of that car

How did you like having to buffing inside those hood scoops on the GT? Look like the same circular spider scratch conditions on a black GT I worked on last year.

Zane, you owe it to yourself to have the doctor drive you over to the Ford dealership and take turns pimp-slapping the person who "prepped" that car. I don't care if it's a GT or a Focus, a car should NEVER look like that when handed to a customer.
Great job, as always. Too bad you had to spend so much time cleaning up someone else's mess.

It's unfortunate but that's the way that many of these cars come from the dealership. It would make you cringe to see normal activities such as washing or wipe downs.To them, it just another car and time is money.
I have assisted on detailing several Aston Martin DB9s at the Dallas dealership in the last several years. Paint and Body Dept. loves to buff them with a high speed rotary polisher and wool pad and then put it in our hands.
This one had less than 2000 miles (dealer buyback due to clear coat failure) and was completely dismantled, repainted and reassembled. Total re-do cost $14K.
We try to tell our customers that are expecting in bound deliveries of new vehicles to take them with untouched exteriors soon as possible off the carrier.
