I was called in by my local Audi dealer to get this beautiful 575M prepped for the showroom floor.

As you can see the original owner took good but not great care of this beauty.

That's just sick. So how many hours did that take? I've seemed to have lost my patience in doing a detail like that any more. About 13 years ago I spent 4 hours on just the undercarriage of my truck. I wish I could get it that clean again....
