When we got a phone call from this owner, he was just inquiring if we can transform his ride.
Well, when we arrive at the scene, we started to do some inspection first. It turns out that it wasn't that bad after all. His ride is still factory paint even after many years.
Let's see what this journey of detailing has taught us,
When we first arrive at the scene,
Based on the owner, he usually brought it to road side car wash nearby his house for convenience. Thanks to them, clear coat has failed.
Checking what to do first.
Do you know what's the problem? Answer: Clear coat failure.

And our journey ends with a reflection ride.
Well, this concludes our journey. Hope you enjoy it. Though that it took us many hours, but it was worth it seeing that the owner and his wife is very happy.
This journey has indeed given us another experience to add in our collection.
