Hey All,

It's always good when you have a returning customer who wants there car doing and I quite like this one due the colour (as I found Silver boring yesterday haha). The probably hasn't been washed for about 4 months, so I decided it was probably good to give it a good going over, clay bar all the bodywork and I also machine polished the bonnet due to it looking dull, few scratches that the owner wanted me to remove.

So the run down of what was done....

- Soaked in ValetPRO PH Neutral Snow Foam
- Wheels (Heavy Dilute) of Bilberry Wheel Cleaner
- Both left to soak for 10 minutes.
- Rinsed down, wheels cleaned with vikan wheel brush.
- Car washed in Carlack 68 Shampoo
- Dried with Sonus Der Wunder Drying Towel.
- Car clayed barred using Meg's Quik Detailer and Clay.
- Bonnet Machine Polished (Intensive Polish, then Final Finish with Chemical Guys Wet Mirror Finish).
- Interior Cleaned using Carlack 68 Plastic Care
- Chemical Guys Stain Remover and Upholstery Brush
- Megs Tyre Shine
- Windows cleaned using AG Car Glass Polish.

Maybe soon I'll get the chance to Machine Polish it from top to bottom as it's covered in swirls.

Looks clean though, desperatly needs some kind of trim restore / back 2 black on it, arches are fading.

Was sure I'd seen this car before... was the last time it got washed last year in July :O

Can you remove the plate from your post then and I'll correct the pictures?

I used treatment on the plastic, but some of it as faded too bad.
