This job was a referal from the client i did the Aud RS6 and Bentley RT for, he was also kind enough to let this detail take place at his property so i could use the garage as rain was forcasted:thumb:

First up was to wash the wheels using Bilberry wheel cleaner and an assortment of brushes

Vehicle was then washed with a lambs wool washmitt and Megs Shampoo Plus and rinsed.

All lower sills were sprayed with AS Tardis and gently wiped with a microfiber to remove any tar. Vehicle was then clayed using sonus Green and megs last touch as lube

vehicle was then dried and paintwork inspected. Light swirling and Random scratches were present on all panels. Tried to capture the defects but struggled to get any decent pic's due to colour. The pic below was the best one i had which shows some of the defects present

As defects were minor only a single stage machine polish was needed so after trying a couple combo's I settled on using a Megs polishing pad and Swissvax Cleaner Fluid PRO. This removed all the defects and left the paintwork with a high gloss.

as always thanks for looking
 
Another excellent job GK. ;bigups
That was rather nice of your referring customer to let you use his garage :cheers:
 
Another fine job sir! Thanks for sharing. Nice shimmer to the paint.

I wish we could get the Bilberry and Tardis over here without paying a fortune for shipping. I've heard great things about both.
 
I must say your customer has good taste in both car and color (or is that colour :)).

Interesting spray attachment shown in the first photo. Looks as if it would be quite useful.

Any interior shots? Don't those come standard with Recaros?
 
Another great write up, GK!

The 4dr MKV R32 never came over to the States and I don't know that we will see another R32 for some time. One of the best sounding cars I've heard!

Thanks for teasing us with all those great cars from Europe!
