Detail My Ride - Candy White Scirocco R *Update 08/05/12*
Greeners:
Hi Chaps,
After admiring this particular car on last years Ring trip I finally got my hands on her to give her some much needed TLC! We carried out a light enhancement detail, as well as refinishing two sets of alloys. A set of 19" Talladega alloys in High Gloss Black, and a second set of 18" Team Dynamics Pro Race also in High Gloss black which are used mainly as track wheels. We also re-painted some very sorry looking brakes, having only covered a few hundred miles they had already rusted over (no surprise there then!).
Process:
- Wheels were only lightly rinsed off due to being removed for refinish
- Tyres/arches cleaned using AS G101, vikan brushes
- Citrus pre-wash via foam lance, to remove loose debris/dirt, high pressure rinse
- Bodywork, door shuts etc washed using Auto Finesse Lather, 2BM and lambswool mitts
- Paintwork decontaminated with AS Tardis, contamination removed using Iron X
- Paintwork cleansed using Dodo Juice Lime Prime prior to waxing.
- Paintwork was using Dodo Juice Supernatural
- Freshly refinished wheels lightly polished by hand, sealed using Mint Rims
- Tyres, plastics and rubbers dressed with Car Pro Perl, glass cleaned, corroded exhaust tips cleaned
- Light interior detail, include mats/carpets clean, fabrics, plastics etc, glass cleaned

Unfortunatly we didn't manage to get any pics with the bolt covers on as they came with the customer when he collected.
Thanks for looking, comments and questions welcome!

Love the turnaround. Such an awesome looking car.
How do you find the autofinesse shampoo?
Surprised you went for SN. Was it the hybrid or V2?
andrewparker:
Do you always favour a citrus pre-wash over a snow foam?
Looks great, must have been very satisfying, particularly considering the levels of contamination.

BBBBBooooooooooooo!
Looks lovely, bet Brian is happy?
Those exhausts need sorting still, they stick out far too much!
