Cool Hawkeye JDM STi. BrCarDetailing

Thought I'd give my car the once over today to show how a well prepared Impreza's paintwork can look.

I'm doing some part time detailing and valeting. If you look at my page on Facebook (Boyd Rees) there's a link to BrCarDetailing

You've done a cracking job there mate. Looking forward to doing mine when the weather improves a little, but I am tempted to get a detailer to sort it for me initially.
What techniques/products do you use.

I see that he's not giving up his products ; )

I find that autoglym stuff is normally fairly handy and easily available + fairly cheap

It does look very shiny and clean though. Did you use a clay bar?

That's another set Ian. They're still sitting in the garage waiting tyres. Undecided on which wheels to use for winter and which for summer.

The AD08s on the gold wheels ideally want to go on the black wheels for the summer and then get something more cold/winter friendly for the gold ones.

It was clayed a couple of months back so didn't need doing today. There was a fair bit of use of a DAS6 Pro, Chemical Guys Hex Logix Green & Menzerna along the lines though

And NO I don't use Autoglym

Superb job on a great looking car. Nice job Boyd.

Also like to add to anyone that doesn't know Boyd, he's a top bloke and does a very high quality job.

Check out Br Car Detailing here.
