This write up was orignally done by Clark, hence the slight change in style. Like the Audi in the other thread, this one was done in mid December, but we havent had much time to get the write up's done due to a large amount of bookings we are continually taking.

Anyways, here's the pics and the write up:
Rich claying the car after being foamed with the Gilmour (much faster than continually spraying QD onto the panel we've found
):
Me getting the last bits of water out the crevices with the good old leaf blower:
Once inside with the halogens on, we could clearly see what we were up against:
So out came the Makita and a polishing pad, with Menz 106FF being the first polish to try out. We've had several people asking lately just how much polish to use with the rotary so here is an example of how much polish you typically need to "prime" the pad for your first pass:
Me working the polish:
And how it should look on the panel once fully broken down:
Once buffed off this was what could be seen afterwards:
95% defects removed (only right hand side done at this point) but i decided to do 2 hits on the flat panels just to get them spot on as they were the worst ones for defects.
This is how much product you need after the pad has initially been primed, you will get no sling what so ever providing you dont crank the speed up too soon
