VII Car Care

New Member
Not mine this time but a fellow Vee members car. It was a big job! So I suggested he left her with me for the week so I could give it some much needed time spent on her.

Car on arrival



It was peeing it down when it was dropped off, so I got on with under the bonnet first. Products used :

Surfex HD
Lots of brushes
Lime prime
Amigo
Perl
Black to the future







Starting to look a lot nicer!




Moving on the interior, products used :

Chemical Guys Inner clean
Surfex HD
Autobrite Fab
Raceglaze Alcantara cleaner
Megs rich leather wipes (Not real leather but these leave it feeling lovely)
Stripper scent
AF air freshener





Next day she was rolled out for a damn good clean. You know the drill. Products used :
Surfex HD
Valet pro prepare shampoo
Elite snow foam
TarX
Kerrosol
G3 clay mitt
Sonax drying towel



Back inside, once fully dried she was taped up.



Paintwork then assessed, quite sorry looking paint!





So, I started off with seeing what worked best using the lightest comounds. The majority of it came out pretty lovely by using just Rupes yellow followed by white, some needed a little more cut in some cases going to the blue & green compound. Refining, I found Rupes white on a finishing Optimum MF pad! Epic results. I also had a play with the Sonax compounds.

Windows were polished with Ceri glass then sealed with this little beauty!



The alloy wheels were wiped down, then cleansed with this! :argie: mmm



Sealed with this, ooooh I love it!





Once correction was completed at the end of the day, I went around and filled a few chips.



Once correction, inspections were carried out I cracked on applying Escalte paint cleanser via the 21E on speed 2, leaving 20 minutes before buffing. Incredible flake pop this stuffs brings out, and the depth is stunning! Then came Master sealant via the 21E again, leaving 15 minutes before buffing to a crisp finish. I then finished off with 2 coats of Black Wulfenite spray wax.




Grills were dressed with Black to the future, epic product.





Exhaust then tackled







Trim then dressed with SN




Few after piccies.














Finally, one sent to me from the happy owner!


Cheers!
 
Still peering in 'the car tent!' and looking at her and just smiling! Lol
Just incredibly happy with how the car returned from both SGM and Dawn's Detail Parlour! Thanks again.
Highly recommended. :)
