Hi friends
Sharing with you a detail job that was carried out last year.
This beauty was in need of shine and gloss. She was accompanied by another guest..... "Cyclone Imelda"
letting the pics speak.
On arrival
Front view
And the “big boss” inspecting
Wash
Tools n products:
Local MPC and car wash shampoo, Wheel brush and small detailing brush, Microfiber wash mitt, Soft MF towels, Uber clay
All done using the 2BM method
Starting with the wheels
The paintwork
Water clinging on the surface
Claying
The clay bar after one section. It finally got worn completely.
The windscreen.... initially looking like bird droppings but looking at it closely....
Flakes coming out of the glass..... what this is?
This was taken care of with Menz old skool PG S34A on LC orange spot pad via the Makita.
Corrected windscreen
WET WET WET "Love is all around"
Do you remember the lyrics? How about this one?
Imelda is all around
Swirls and RIDS
Paintwork correction:
Tools n products:
• Makita rotary with LC orange, white & black pads
• Menz old skool PG S34A, 203s, PO 85rd, PoweLock Sealant
Corrected
The Hood
Corrected
The roof
Oxidation, bird dropping stains. Swirls and RIDS are there but not captured by the camera in cyclonic weather
The roof after
Mirror! Mirror!
After correction and refining
just need to complete a wipe off to shine like a mirror, same as the driver's side
Only 1 pic, it was clearer than what is captured by the camera due to the persistent rain, moist and wind.
[
Detail completed... in the company of an uninvited guest.... waiting for rain to stop to take some shots... but it wasn't to be....
Started to dry, but getting wet all the time thanks to Imelda
WET WET WET! Imelda is all around
WET WET WET! Beads are all around
Thanks for reading. Your thoughts are most welcome.
Cheers :wavey:
