2010 Ford Taurus
This Ford Taurus has a color changing wrap. The owner wanted to make maintenance easier and also fix some oxidized plastic trim. I decided to detail his engine bay, refresh his windshield wiper arms, correct some swirls in the wrap, and protect it with CS-II.

This car was far from perfect. There are dents in the paint, and the wrap had numerous issues, but the owner loved his car, and he told me exactly what he needed. Although he’s in law enforcement his tinted headlights got him in trouble with the law.

The paint on the wiper arms were faded
The paint on the wiper arms were faded
The engine bay was filthy
Removing the arms required a 15mm socket and a puller
All the plastics had a white film on them
Look at the difference here after cleansing with PreWow
Sanding off the tint required 180grit
A lot of sanding was needed
Much better
Curing the headlight coating
Finished
These came out great
I mark the resting position on the glass so I can put them back in the same position
