mate used a scouring pad to remove weld shears

[finerdetails]

A mate gave me a shout a few weeks ago. Could I pop over and help with his cars? A Renault Grand Scenic and a BMW 330D M Sport. Yeah I said why not. Then I asked what he had in mind having already agreed :wall:



The wagon needs a full interior clean, and a once over, the Beemer needs some souring pad marks removing :doublesho :doublesho :doublesho



Gutted!



So here's the before's:



Scenic:

and the beener I hear you ask?

Both cars:

Poorboys APC arches and alloys

Washed with Carplan triple wax

Dried using an MF towel.

Interiors cleaned with 1001 carpet and upholstery (beemer wiped down, Scenic wet n dried)

Dash wiped with diluted 1001 and then Armor All matt wipes, glass Fairy solution and a MF cloth.



Scenic Exterior:

Pinnacle XMT by polishing pad, Armor All Tyre Gel



Beemer:

Scratches: SSR3, DACP, Pinnacle SR, Pinnacle XMT, DP Max Wax, Tyres Armor All Tyre Gel.

I noticed your portable shade tent in the background. I just had that idea this last weekend to allow cleaning outside in a shaded area. I assumed the light would be better than the garage.



How does it work for you? What size is it?



And by the way, the cars look great :2thumbs:

Both vehicles look great. You said you used the XMT series on the Scenic, did you finish with the Carnauba Finsihing Glaze? If so it did an excellent job. Love the 330D M Sport, you made that silver pop! Thanks for sharing, excellent work.

its a 3m x 3m, and with a sheet , 2m x 3m tied to one end it works a treat. Being outside you can at least get some breeze...

Which Pinnacle XMT products did you use? Also, if you could give me your opinion on the XMT products that you've had experience with that would be great!

XMT Ultra SR, performs very very well, leaves an excellent finish, very very glossy, but it dusts like hell!



XMT finishing glase is just jaw droppingly good! Thats all I used on the scenic!
