After a frustrating day I had on a mk1 Golf last week, I hoped the work I had planned for this 08 plate Audi would be a bit kinder to me!

Before:
After:
Wheels: Megs WB. Megs SDG. EZ Wheel Brush. Envy Brush and wheel mitt.
Arches: Flooded in the later stages with snowfoam and blasted with the pressure washer (material lining)
Wash: Snowfoam. CG CGW and the new Chemical Guys buckets.
A good bit of kit.
De-con: Sonus Green clay bar. AutoSmart Tardis.
Rinsed and dried with the Miracle dryer.
Moved inside to see the defects..
As pictured above, there was a bad haze/series of scratches on the boot-lid. Although this was only minor-correction (Limeprime was out of question unfortunately), Id hit this area (and a few others..) with some Intensive Polish to remove the most of.
Lots and lots and lots of passes with the 3M yellow polishing pad (a current firm favourite) and weve achieved pretty much full correction.
Menz 106FA used with the 3M polishing and achieved some 90% defect removal.. Leaving the odd RDS.
