AFTER · what the skill produced

Hi Nasser,

Thank you for trusting us with your gray 2016 Chevrolet Tahoe. Miriam Elliott applied two layers of Quillback Hex-9 to it, and here is how we ask you to care for it.

First days

  • Keep the Tahoe dry and out of the rain for 48 hours, through March 13. If you have a garage, please park it inside.
  • Do not wash it at all for 7 days. The earliest first wash is March 18.

Washing from then on

  • Hand wash only.
  • Use a pH neutral soap and the two bucket method.
  • Use clean microfiber mitts and towels.
  • If you use a pressure washer, keep it at least 3 feet from the paint.

Please avoid

  • Automatic car washes with brushes
  • Wax or sealant on top of the coating

Things that land on the paint

  • For bird droppings and bug splatter, rinse and wipe them off soon with water and a clean microfiber towel.
  • Do not scrub them when dry.

Our follow-up

  • Your 30 day check with us is free. Please book it by April 10.
  • We recommend a maintenance wash with us every 6 months. It is $95.

Thank you again,
Hazelvale Auto Detailing
8246 Glenvale St, Kettlehill

Questions for the owner

  • What phone number and hours should the customer use to book the 30 day check?
  • Do you want to include any guidance on water spots, tree sap, or winter road salt?
  • Do you want to include warranty terms for the coating? If so, please send them as written.
