Erich's Auto Detailing: Honda CR-V

[Dtrick.22]

This was some of the worst paint I have ever seen or dealt with. If you could have seen all the scratches and swirls you would have thought it was washed with a rake on a regular basis. You can see how awful it is in the before pictures, but they don't even do the justice. I gave them some washing tips, so I hope I wont have to do any correction on this car for awhile.

-CAR Products Sud'Sational Shampoo
-Sonus Ultra-Fine Clay

AFTERS: (I wasn't totally done yet. Still had to finish dressing the trim on a few spots I missed, but I wanted to take the pictures before the sun went down so there were a few tiny things left to do before pickup)

Nice, deep and clear.

[Bobby@Autogeek]

Nice paint correction. Keep up the great work.

I bet they were happy.

Oh she was thrilled when she came to pick it up...I way undercharged on it, but I guess its alright to give somebody a deal once in awhile.

Nice work. How did you managed to get those swirls out from the door handels?

[AutopiaCS]

Swirls everywhere... wow there were a lot on that SUV, great job!

I used my Razor Cut 1000 by hand in there, followed it with ssr2 and a wax. I dont know why but it seems like the clear is much softer under the handles and I always have good luck getting those kinds of scratches out by hand.

Looks great - Am sure the customer was extremely pleased with the outcome.

Why did you stop using the rotary when you went to the SSR 3? That probably took a lot longer using the PC than the rotary.

I got enough of the defects out using my Razor Cut with the wool that I just felt I could go right to PC to start getting some of the compound swirls out.

Looks awesome, nice work. Just ask her not to mention the price to others she may refer you to!
