37k mile Lexus NX dressed in black - Stunning


TTQ B4U

Recommended Posts

So a fellow member here brought his wife's lease over for a final refresh and clean up inside and out prior to turning it early next year. Overall it wasn't bad given it's mileage so kuddo's to him for keeping it nice. :thumbup:

 

It had light swirls all over it but again, light. Main negative was the need to wet sand out about 8-10 areas on the hood and roof where tree-sap had etched into the clear coat. Not a big deal and something I put in as a bonus to his purchasing of this Basic Clean and Protect package. Probably the best value package I have to offer. Interior wise was the same service level offering available in a Basic Package.

 

A Second upgrade was I ran two cycles from an Ozone Machine through it after cleaning up the interior to remove a light smoke odor. Outside looking new on the exterior, his wife made my day when she noted that it now smells new inside too :)

 

Mother nature continued to pour down rain but the detail moved on. Killed any real good photo shots but here are a few of the end result. Thanks again to George for trusting in my work and I look forward to tackling those other rides soon. You're all set for next week and hopefully the weather will let me work outside.........as his first truck is too tall to fit in my garage :eek:

 

This F-Sport model made it to the final round when my wife was shopping for a small SUV. Looks great in black I think!

Paint cleaned up nicely. Tons of deposits stuck to the side panels made it feel like it had 5-O'Clock Shadow

Paint came out great though. Here's the hood after sanding and polishing

Rain didn't matter, I had to get a shot outside the garage

What ozone machine do you use, and what's the max area it'll handle? I've been thinking of picking one up.

 

 

Enerzen Commercial, 6,000mg. IIRC it will do 900sq ft. I will run it at home and simply put it in front of a cold air return. Knocks out odors throughout but you have to be sure to remove all live animals, etc. Run it in a closed room with a fan and you can easily treat smaller areas at a time. Again, just do it while you're gone and pets are out of the entire house.
