Heres a Mk5 that i carried out a detail on the other day, the before pictures.....
First up was the wheels, these were given a good rinse with the power washer and then bilberry 4:1 was applied through a foaming head and cleaned using various brushes.. The tyres were done with megs de-greaser, inner arches were also done with megs APC and various brushes.
Next up was the bodywork, this was given a good rinse with the power washer, lower half was soaked with megs de-greaser then power rinsed off. The car was then foamed using megs shampoo plus...
The car was then power rinsed then washed 2BM method using grit gaurds etc, a lambswool mitt and CG glossworx for shampoo. Door shuts and sills were done with Megs APC and de-greaser using various brushes. Car was then rinsed, de tared using AS tardis, and clayed using CYC yellow clay and Megs last touch as lubricant.. the clay bar after the rear window and spolier
The car was then re-washed with fresh water to remove any loose dirt or contaminants from the previous stages. The car was then taken inside and dried using ultra plush towels and Megs last touch as a drying aid.
The car had very minor defects, and light swirling. I decided to use my milwaukee poisher any a lake country finishing pad with Megs #80. This proved to give the desired results, with this not being a full correction. Polished buffed off using deep pile eurow towels.
The car was then given a wipe down with last touch to remove any polishing dust and given a layer of Megs #16 wax. While this was bonding i polished the glass with AG glass cleaner, dressed the plastics with Megs ASD and applied a layer of poorboys wheel sealant, tyres were dressed with Megs endurance gel.
Waxed was then buffed off using eurow towels again, the wheels sealant was also wiped off.
The exhausts were polished using belgom alu and 00 grade wire wool.
The car was left looking like this
just as the rain came on
The inside was given a going over with henry and a wipe down with Megs apc.
Thanks
