I know you can see a lot of my work in the portfolio on my site but I thought I'd kick my new forum section off with a couple of jobs I was particularly proud of..
I was supposed to be doing the car behind door number 1 today... but with a completely dead battery and no obvious way to jump it I moved to the car behind door number 2.. a lovely midnight blue Carrera GT. 55 plate with about 7k miles.. and in the early morning light.. lots of scratches!
Wheels with acid free, pre wash with megs hyper wash, shampoo with hyper wash..
Dried and into the garage and clayed with Sonus green which brought up minimal dirt but dirt none the less.
Polish of the day was menz 106fa on a yellow megs pad.

The bonnet was covered in some type of film and this was really bad which detracted from the whole look for the car. so rather than just leave it i gave it a go at a slow speed with the polisher...
Before
After... not bad considering the film.
Didnt want to go too far but was very pleased that atleast the bonnet didnt stand out like a big sore ugly thumb now!
Polishing all complete and on with the HD paint cleanse and the Vintage wax. Windows cleaned, dressings applied, Interior cleaned and leather fed.
Thankgoodness for my new wide angle lens again! brilliant for tight garages
Finished pics.
And taken outside the next day after I washed the Wiesmann...
thanks for looking.
