The "Beast" is getting a detailing

Well, due to the harsh winter and spring weather and the condition of the coach as a result I decided to spring for a mobile detailing service to get my rig clean for the upcoming season.

After showing up and looking over the coach we decided on a three step process which is wash, clean and polish, and last carnauba wax. We estimate it taking him 2 and a half days to complete the project. The final phase will be a complete wipe down of the entire coach on the last visit. The final completion will be Wednesday evening or Thursday morning.

Day 1 (yesterday). First he washed the top, rear cap and driver's side of the coach.

Driver's side after washing

He completed the rear cap, and one third of the driver's side using Marine 31 cleaner and polish (using a buffer) and a coat of Pinnacle carnauba wax (applied and removed by hand).

Rear cap complete

On the rear cap he took a plastic blade and carefully removed all traces of glue/sticky tape seepage from around the Challenger lettering. This alone took him close to an hour.

More to follow.
