Detailed the Wife's '10 Escape

Sunday we worked together on the detail, me applying products by hand, and her buffing them out.

took about 4 hours time for us to get it done. Its not perfect but I think we did pretty well considering we washed it at dusk, and did all the detailing in the dark :o

Pics from Monday morning (sunrise)









And the customary close up reflection shot

Wheel wells are not finished on the Escape.


There's no room for that kind of half-assed work around here.

It was dark out, and the wheel wells were even darker.

I mentioned it wasnt a perfect detail, but its a good start, since we've owned it for about 4 months now and this is the first time we've had a chance to get it detailed
