Presidential Detailed: Infiniti FX35

This customer just bought the car recently and wanted to get it cleaned up a bit. The previous owner was a snowbird so it mostly sat, but the paint wasnt kept up too well, looked like multiple auto-washes,etc. So we set up the detail, and I spent a couple days to get it back in shape. It was moderately difficult to get the defects back out of the paint, but we got it to about 95% corrected. Anyways, on to the pics!
