Envy Valeting Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I'm trying to do a bit of catch up on the write ups as the camera is literally rammed but struggling to get time to do them so here is one from a few weeks back. Hope you like it! This lil beauty belongs to a customer of mine who emigrated to Oz, but has decided to return to us and I'm glad to resume doing business with him. He has a big family and as such, the family car is BIG too......this was a real challenge and the interior took as long as the outside! Suncream hands needed to be removed, and also there were other areas I had to machine with my Flex polisher. Great place to work Wheels were attacked with AS Smart wheels, Envy Brushes and a Vikan NSWB. Bubbly Jubbly SSF (2 goes this time!) There was a LOT of tar so used Espuma TGB to make light work of it. Clayed with Chemical Guys blue clay, then onto the hands....Before a machine with FCP (normally I'd use Dodo Lime Prime but it didnt make a dent on these!) After Onto the interior, brace yourselves! A lot of Henry, a lot of APC and a lot of leather wipes and Dasheen got the job done eventually. The car was treated to Werkstatt Prime by the PC, followed by 2 coats of Jett to try to claw some time back on my day. Tyres dressed with RD50, glass with Crystal green. So its not all Ferrari's etc lol, and we're not afraid of a challenge! Best wishes and thanks for looking Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryan21 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Nice Job Tim, that interior must have been a lot of work Just got a quick question for you. I brought some Espuma TGB from you around xmas time and planning to use it this weekend. Do you dilute the TGB first or just spray it on neat then wipe off after a few minutes?

Stew Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I guess with 5 kids it's inevitable that the car will end up a mess. Great job bringing it back! Looks like a pretty cool bus! My sister and I weren't allowed to eat in the car ever and we ha to tidy up ALL our rubbish when we stopped on long journeys. I think I get my car clean OCD from my dad!
