Car on arrival after being trailered down to me
Car was foamed with AG Powermax and left to dwell for a few minutes to help loosen the build up of grime and dead bugs from heavy track use and then rinsed at high pressure. This was repeated several times.
All cracks, crevices, door jambs and hard-to-reach areas were cleaned using a Swissvax brush
Once happy with the pre-wash stages vehicle was then washed twice with Megs Hyperwash and a lambs wool washmitt. Vehicle was then rinsed and Tardis was applied to the lower half of the car to remove the bulk of the build up of tar. This was left a for a bit then gently wiped with a soft microfiber. Tardis was also applied to a few other places to remove some stickers found on the car.
A fair amount of time was taken claying the paint and glass
Once the exterior wash stages were complete the wheels were removed as the client requested to have the arches cleaned and protected with Bilt Hamber Dynax S50. Arches were cleaned with Bilt Hamber Surfex, Tardis and variour brushes.
Dynax applied and any overspray easily removed with a damp microfiber
Wheels were also cleaned at this point using Epsuma Wheel Revolution and Tardis. Not too much time was spent on these as per client's request as they need refurbing and basically just used for the track. The rears came up as new but the fronts still had some stubborn deposits and did not want to use nothing too strong as the finish on them were already starting to rub away.
Paint correction was carried out using 3m FCP and their cutting pad
Once all compounding was complete vehicle was washed and dried ready for the refinement stages. This was carried out using Megs 205
Exterior glass was polished using Megs G220 and Jeffs Prime. Pic below shows how much dirt was pulled just from the front windscreen
Kidney grills removed to cleaned. Pic below shows one after being done with Jeffs Prime and the other still dirty
Exhausts cleaned with Autosol and wirewool and then protected with Blackfire Metal sealant
Engine bay dressed with 303 aerospace
Not much of a Interior but what was there was wiped down with megs APC
The plan was to finish the car off with GTechniq C1 Crystal Lacquer but half way through the detail client decided to get the car half wrapped when I finished with the car and advised me that the wrapping company wanted the paint free of any sealant or wax. However client was unable to get the wrap done when he wanted so a coat of Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant was applied to give the car some protection till it gets it wrap in a week or so time.
Few finished pics.
