Detailed my Mom's Tahoe!

So, after a year of neglect... My moms 2008 Chevy Tahoe finally got some TLC....

I was going to take some before pictures, but I forgot! But to give you an idea, the car was nicknamed the "Dirty Hoe"







It was 3M professional Wax, Zymol Car Wash.

I know the windows look like **** but it's 87* here and I was sunburnt so I am letting it sit in the garage and I'll go back for them!

Yeah, I have done better! But since all my good stuff is packed away and on it's way to North Carolina I did what I could with what I had.....

And it had a year of dirt, mud, bugs, tar built up on it......
