So, finally took ownership of my new S3 (mythos black) about a month ago and first things first decided to give it a clean using the following method/product's:
Pressure washed all the loose dirt off,
Washed using AG super foaming shampoo (2B method) with lambs wool mitt,
Dried with microfiber,
Clayed using farecla g3 mitt,
Polished with AG SRP,
Glazed with poorboys black hole,
Finally, waxed with poorboys nattys blue paste.
The bodywork looked like glass when I was finished... in that light, as it was nearly dark when I finished.
The next day I was looking over the work that I'd done and was ******* dismayed to find light scratching and some swirls.
What the **** went wrong?
I was so careful to remove any remaining dirt before attacking the car and any microfibers or pads that I dropped were swiftly discarded.
So, the next week I decided to give it another try to see if giving it 110% would sort this mess out.
It didn't.
So I'm at the point now of getting someone to professionally detail the car (correct those light swirls and scratches) and never do it myself again.
Any sort of help with this would be greatly appreciated as I feel like a total **** having done this to my brand new car.
And yes I know because it's black that it'll tend to show more imperfections, but c'mon it's 4 weeks old!
