Jaguar F Type S Detailed

detailR

Well-Known Member
This beautiful supercharged F Type S was a recent purchase for the owner.
They had some concerns about the soft JLR paint so decided on Ceramic Pro 9H to protect it.
The paint was in general good shape with your average swirling and a few random deeper marks.

The order of the detail...

Wheels, tyres and arches cleaned.
Full safe wash and decontamination.
Enhancement detail - single stage machine polish (isolated areas received 2 or 3 polishing stages where needed).
Ceramic Pro 9H and Light applied to the paintwork.
Ceramic Pro Rain applied to the exterior glass.
Engine bay cleaned and dressed.

The car on arrival.

Full safe wash process.

It was a bit grubby in places.

After tar removal and clay, the car was prepared for the machine polishing to begin.

A little smart repair.

Amazing looking car ! Looked fantastic before you brought it in , now looks even better.

Can I ask you about exhaust tips? Mine are scratched to pieces. Used some very soft wire wool and autosol but cannot get the scratches out .
How do you achieve this ?

Thanks @andybond

For the exhaust tips, I use Auto Finesse Mercury metal polish.
Start off with some super fine wire wool if they're very bad, then finish down with a microfiber cloth and some more polish.
You can buy drill attachments to speed it up.
