Default THATS FRESH Detailed: 2006 Black Sapphire Metallic 325Cic

This vert was already in good condition both inside and out. Also with it being a vert, the detail only took a few hours to do some paint correction and treat the top. for some reason, the trunk was heavily swirled than the rest of the body. i used just SIP/orange for most of the car and SIP/106FF for the trunk.

*Interior: the usual dusting, vacuuming, final wipe down.

engine bay, washed the wheels, the top, and then the whole car

my solution i made that ive been using over the years just for softops. its very diluted (to appeal to vert fabrics). the verts that have been coming back to me over the years havent any discoloration at all so i know it works, lOL
