MG B ready for fun!

This little guy came in for a refresher this week.  The owner has had it since he and his brothers have been driving.  In addition to restoring it recently, he had the opportunity to have it used in a commercial recently.  Very cool!

Not cool was that they threw dirt all over it as part of the commercial.  So, not that the shoot is over, it was time to clean it up and restore the finish.  To do this we scheduled the 3 Piece which included a wash, clay, polish, and wax.  I then restored the seals and external black pieces (mainly the bumpers).  Finally I vac'd the interior, performed a Leatherique treament on the seats, protected the dash and door panels, and protected the convertible top.  The tires were treated to a period correct shine and all the bright work received a light polish.

Here are the before pics:

The Power of ONR and a Little Elbow Grease

Wondering what you can do with two empty 5 gallon buckets?  Try filling one up with water and the other with water and 5 ounces of Optimum No Rinse.  In a parking lot with no hose, no water tanks, and a little bit of planning, I was able to transform a 2008 Tahoe from this: To this: Then using Eagle One Never Dull, Mother's Mag Polish, and Mother's Billet Polish, I was able to turn the wheels from this: To this: A little shy of 4 hours after I started, I ended up with this: Not bad for an evening in a parking lot. :)
