Default Detailed: 96 Caddy Eldorado conv.

Had a friend drop off his 96 Caddy Eldorado convertable today for a detail. The interior was really nice so not too much was needed. His main focus was to get the exterior looking nice, eventhough its garage kept and only comes out on weekends. Havent seen to many of these around and this one is really nice. The color is what I call black cherry. But is just a metallic maroon.

Washed, clayed, some minor wetsanding/compounding, foam pad polish, handwax. Dressed the interior and did the windows too.

Didnt take any before pics but here is the finished product

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO
