Door shuts and fuel cap were sprayed with APC and aggitated

[Image: P1050190.jpg]

The car was then dried and clayed using last touch as lube. Doors and lower arches being worse off

[Image: P1050194.jpg]

Washed again using the same process as before and brought inside to be dried and inspected under halogen and led lighting

A section on the bonnet was taped off. I used the Makita rotary and initially tried a 3M polishing pad with menzerna 106FA but wasnt expecting this to do the job. Which it didnt so i switched to the same pad but 3M fast cut plus.

Switching to a sonus polishing spot pad for the front wings and A pillars

[Image: P1050244.jpg]

Things were starting to take shape now

[Image: P1050259.jpg]

Moving round to the boot

[Image: P1050260.jpg]

The paintwork was then dusted down and i changed to a meguiars finishing pad and menzerna final finish. Such a lovely polish

[Image: P1050283.jpg]

The car was then taken outside to be inspected in natural light

[Image: P1050284.jpg]

Time for the engine bay. This was rinsed down with warm water and shampoo plus, sprayed with APC, aggitated and jetwashed off

[Image: P1050287.jpg]

The car was then jetwashed and snow foamed due to the huge amount of polishing dust from the fast cut!

[Image: P1050292.jpg]

It was then dried inside. The engine bay was then treated with aerospace 303, protecting all rubbers and plastics

[Image: P1050294.jpg]

Leaving this

Poorboys wheel sealant was applied, along with endurance tyre gel

[Image: P1050299.jpg]

The car was then taken outside to be checked and to take some photos while the sun was out

[Image: P1050304.jpg]

I then went around the car removing any wax residue from badges and small cracks

[Image: P1050329.jpg]

These were the final pictures of the car
