Hi All
Thanks for taking the time to view another thread from us.
Here we have a 1997 Bentley Brooklands R Mulliner, Only 339 Bentley Brooklands R were made and this included a limited series of 100 cars which were marketed as ‘Mulliner’.
The usual wash and decontamination stage were carried out
The interior started by vacuuming the loose dust and dirt from all surfaces first, including the carpet. Zaino Leather Cleaner was used to clean up the leather interior, this was softly agitated with a nail brush to loosen the build up of dirt.
Cleaning finished, 2 coats of LTT Ultra Protect was applied waiting an hour between coats. LTT Ultra Protect is similar to a sealant for leather as it adds a breathable layer of protection to better guard against future wear and dye transfer.
Swissvax Wood Polish was used on all wood trim, It fills in light scratches, help's restore faded trim and most importantly protects the trim from UV damage. All rubber seals were given a good clean then conditioned with Swissvax Seal Feed to keep them soft and pliable
Here is how the paint looked in direct sun light. The swirls causes paint to refract light instead of reflecting it perfectly.
and another shot under natural light
and under metal halide lights
Before any machine work starts paint measurements are taken and then I like to remove as much trim as possible from a car as it makes machine polishing so much easier.
Here is a 50/50 after 4 stages of machine polishing - by far one of the hardest clear coats/lacquer I have ever worked on!!!
and below a few "before and afters" during the correction stages - prior to any final polishing/refining
All glass was polished with Werkstats Prime via DA - this is a great cleaner but also leaves some protection also.
The tyres and mud flaps required a lot more scrubbing to remove the build up of silcone based dressings, once clean we applied 3M Tyre Restorer to them.
Exhaust were cleaned with very fine wire wool and a bit of Autosol and then protected with Blackfire Metal Sealant
Once all the little jobs were complete the car was blown over with compressed air to remove any dust particles and then wiped down with CarPro Eraser to strip the paint of any oil and polish residue. Gtechniq C1 was then applied to all paintwork including wheels.
And the end result...
Thanks for looking
