Thought I better post something in here again seeings as it's been a while! This is a multiple car post consisting of a few cars I've done over the last month or so.
So, a nice easy one to start off with, a regular customer's new toy:
The paintwork on the R8 was pretty good as the car has done very little miles so this was just a 1 day protection detail for now. The wheels were cleaned with Menz 7.5 Tyre and Wheel Gel:
Arches/shuts etc were done with P21S. Hyperwash was used as the pre-wash foam:
This was left to dwell for 5 mins and then pressure washed off:
The usual 2BM was used and the car was then put inside for claying, using Meguiars Mild Detailing Clay and Last Touch:
The top half of the car was loaded with various contaminants:
I then dried the car off with a waffle weave towel and the leaf blower and then set about cleansing/protecting the paint. Only really one choice for a silver car:
This was applied to a damp MF applicator...
...then worked into the paint:
This was applied to the whole car and then removed using a Poorboys DMT.
The next stage in the Werkstat Acrylic System is the spray sealant:
This is sprayed onto a MF and buffed over the paintwork:
I applied 4 coats in total, leaving 30 mins between each coat and then gave the car a complete wipe down with Acrylic Glos. Wheels sealed with PB Wheel Sealant, tyres dressed with Blackfire's Polycharged Tyre Gel:
The engine was given an APC wipe down and dressed with 303 Aerospace Protectant:
Tailpipes were polished with Megs NXT and sealed with Blackfire Metal sealant, the interior was fully detailed too but muggins here forgot to take any pics!
After pics:
