I got stuck with in with a bottle of apc and started with the petrol cap and door wells and all the other nocks and cranys. Then the megs hyperfoam.

While that was working its magic a tacked those wheels which i dont think have ever seen some cleaned suff on them. I used megs wheel brighter on them and some good old effort. The tryes and arches where sparyed with degreaser and worker with a brush. The car was then washed of and then refoamed and washed using the 2bm. I then cleaned the tar of with tartis there was quite a lot.
I then clayed the car and wheels using some megs clay and last touch. The car was then dryed off was a delux towel. I sorry i did not take any photos of this stage i forgot.Here are the photos after the claying stage.[

Once the engine was done then the car have the Werkstat Acrylic Kit put on it as i find this works well on light paints.[[IMG][/IMG]

The glass was the cleaned using megs glass and the tyres gloss gel.Sorry that i took the photo before i cleaned the pedals but they where done with some apc as well.[
