Aston Martin and Mk5 GTI Detail
« on: November 18, 2010, 11:10:53 pm »
Was asked by a friend (and former rival!)  :driver: to detail his cars. Gti is pretty standard and is mostly used by his wife and kids. Aston is his weekend toy.
Big thanks to Craigy 123 off of here for the help today!  :happy2:

GTI recieved:
Snow foamed
As smart wheels
Megs super degreaser (arches)
Megs apc (engine bay)
As finish (engine bay)
2bm wash (poseidons wash used)
Tardis
Rinsed
Clayed with Washshop yellow clay and Last Touch.
Rinsed again
Dried
Exterior plastics megs dressing
Dodo juice lime prime applied
Dodo juice diamond white applied
Arches dressed with megs all season
Tyres dressed with Duragloss tyre and rubber care.

Interior was hoovered with henry, some plastics cleaned with apc on a m/f to remove sticky finger marks  :sick: and then dressed with as finish.
Mats were treated with AS brisk and then later treated with the upholstery protector from AS.

A few pics from through the day.....







Aston martin was given the same treatment for cleaning it up, but a couple of different products.
Zymol titanium
Zymol auto bathe
werkstatt gloss (craigs choice!)
Megs mirror glaze
Excuse the dirt,Wheels werent given a mega clean as they are being refurbed soon.
