Biggy Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Really enjoyed todays detail, (was the first 350 i've done where it hasn't rained!) Car gave a massive transformation, and Neil was more then happy with the work carried out, he even let me have a drive afterwards Anyway i'll let the pics do the talking: Heres the car upon arrival: Firstly the wheels were cleaned using autobrite very cherry, the car was then given a good covering of citrus degreaser to strip the car of the old wax, and then given a coat of snow foam which was left to dwell for a few minutes for the snowfoam to drag the dirt and old wax off, Heres some pics neil took of the dirty foam, The car was then re-snowfoamed, then washed using 2 bucket method, dodo BTBM shampoo and washmitt, After the car was washed, and inspected for tar, i found very little tar which meant no need for tar removal The car was then clayed using some Meguires clay and last touch as lube Very little contaminants on the car: Then before i gave the car its final rinse, i did the engine bay, Before: after: The car was then dried, using a varity of drying towels and last touch as a drying aid this time: Before i started on the machine enhancement, Neil asked me if i could take a look at a few bits and bobs round the car and see what i could do with them, this included a few scratches which i tried to take the edge off to make them less visable, and gave the headlights a polish as one was quite cloudy. Scratch before: scratch after: the whole car was then hit with Lime prime to clean the paint wheels completed: exhaust cleaned: The car was then given two coats of Autobrite Addiction wax on the lighter areas, and purple haze pro on the black and carbon areas, The tyres were dressed with turtle was tire gel, and plastics and windows cleaned, Some Finished photos and also a picture of all the beer Neil drank whilst doing the detail Been an absolute pleasure doing this car, can't wait to see the improvemants that are going to be made on it in the near future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davetstan Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Mate off the record. Whats the damage on a pro detail and does it really make that much of a difference. Your car looked superb before to me. I have been tempted myself but never taken the plunge. Dave O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
