Great results.

What do you think about the Sonax dashboard cleaner? Is it better then the 303 aerospace cleaner/spot remover?

how about eh sonax leather foam? Does it do a good job of cleaning the leather?

Dang!! That Sonax Leather Cleaner is pretty good! Looks promising. Just spray and wipe and that's it?! How would this product compared to the Leather Masters ?

Wow those are some big tires! Always loved these big LX470's. Nice work.

In this case here with the condition of the leather seats, was there a lot of effort involved using the Sonax Leather cleaner to get those results?

Very nice work.

Very nice job, I know from previous experience that it took a long time of back breaking work to clay, polish, and fully detail that large SUV and the price for the service reflects that. I hate detailing big SUVs especially if it involves claying/polishing because it just takes such a long time of backbreaking work. I usually set a pretty high price and explain how long it is going to take when someone wants a big SUV polished that they normally skip the claying/polishing, occasionally someone still wants it done and will pay the money for it though.

Great job. Too bad about that center console cover and ugly external wheel weights.

What's wrong with the center console? Isnt it an oem unit?
