BMW i8 New Car Detail

Okay, it's not anything to do with Renaults but I thought I'd share it since it's super cool.

This car (spaceship) received a new car protection detail to help keep it looking it's best. The car is 2 months old and hasn't been washed since the dealer prep, but it's hardly seen the road.
The dealer prep was pretty good on this. The majority of new cars coming through have been dreadful so this was a refreshing change. But there's always room for improvement :)

The car was washed using ONR and spot checked to see if it needed a fallout remover, which it didn't. A small number of tar spots were treated carefully before spot claying the car.
The paintwork was cleaned using AF Rejuvenate on a light polishing pad.

It's a shame you can't see the carbon weave there.

Then glazed using Ultra Glaze on a finishing pad for some extra gloss.

The wheels were waxed with Mint Rims.

The interior was dusted off using AF Total.

The door shuts were cleaned with Finale which will leave a little bit of protection behind. The car lives in a garage and won't go out in the wet.

The tyres were dressed and the glass cleaned, polished and sealed.
