Envy Valeting Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 4 years ago I did this Clio Skip forward to the present day and she needs a whole lotta love! I had to ask if she had been used as a stage rally car, muck forestry, 4X4 etc... Green with Envy? Based on how she was, I sprayed the whole vehicle with weak TFR to get the dirt loosened and then covered the wheels with Iron Awe and left to soak. Pre-soaked with Citrus cleaner via the foam lance, anti-bacterial agents should help slow the return of the green bits. Rinsed and then the old faithful Bubbly Jubbly Quote
Envy Valeting Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 Once the Bubbly Jubbly was rinsed, and BEFORE the hand wash it was time for a liberal application of Iron Awe to the bodywork too. Wheels cleaned thoroughly Hand washed with TBM, Envy shampoo and the Z sponge. Much better I think you'll agree. A problem on the rear arch for the customer to get touched in, a photographic memory jogger! Artdeshine clay cloth time. Getting ready for WAR! 2-3 passes with S3 Gold and we are on the right track I correct and refine 1 panel at a time. Nothing more disheartening than making your way round a car, then having to start again to refine. The fecking flex flex doing what it does best! Quote

pmorg4 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Looks stunning mate. The paint on mine is decent for its age but this kind of makeover really puts it into perspective Quote
samsniss350z Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Never ceases to amaze me how owners are prepared to let their cars get into such a state, still with the fantastic job that you've done, it keeps you in business. Quote
Stutopia Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Looks beautiful, nice job! How come we never see one of these walkthroughs for the Brazilian Waxing you mention in your signature? Quote
