Cool Polished Bliss vs Manky White TT

A nice relaxing end to a busy week with another maintenance plan car in for a protection top up - or at least it should have been! This one is also on a quarterly plan and the owner hadn't the time to wash it at all since the last treatment - so this is approx 4,000 miles worth of crap stuck to the paint!



















I won't bore you with another lengthy description so I'll just give you the process:

Wash:

- Foamed with Hyper Wash @ 60 degrees (twice)
- Rinsed at high pressure (for approx 15 minutes)
- Poorboys Bug Squash
- Rinsed again
- Wheels done with Megs WB (4:1) and Tardis
- Tyres/arches/shuts/fuel cap with Megs SD (10:1)
- Washed with 2BM & Shampoo Plus
- Tardis
- Clayed with Megs Mild Clay
- Engine done with Megs APC (4:1)

Clean/Protect:

- Werkstat Acrylic Prime
- Werkstat Acrylic Jett (4 coats)
- Werkstat Acrylic Glos wipe down
- Engine done with 303

Interior:

- Hoover
- APC wipe down
- Leather feed with Raceglaze leather balm
- Glass with Megs GCC
- Shuts with Werkstat Prime Strong


Wheels/Tyres/Misc:

- PB wheel Sealant
- Blackfire Tyre Gel
- Tailpipes with NXT and then sealed with Blackfire Metal Sealant.

Afters:































I wouldn’t have usually bothered posting a simple detail like this, but I promised the owner I'd shame him with the before pics!

great job and the owner SHOULD be ashamed, that is shocking! I am always amazed that people spend a vast amount of money on a car then couldn't care less about it...... strange that the customer has taken the time to get you guy's to detail the car and has a quarterly plan but inbetween treats the car like a £500 banger.

I suppose it is their money

Excellent results as always
