    Owner of this uses it just for track purposes and wanted it looking its best again so was booked in for full paint correction along with wheels removed

    Vehicle was given the usual wash and decontamination stages and then wheels were removed.

    Wheels

    Wheels were cleaned with Epsuma Wheel revolution and de-tarred with Tardis

    The wheel faces were stained and I tried several products to shift this but nothing work so ended up machine polishing these to remove the stubborn stains

    There was some painted areas under the bonnet i wanted to machine polish so the 2 sections of bonnet were removed. These areas were machine polished using a DA. This also enabled me to give the engine bay a wipe down.

    Paint correction was carried out using a Menz 3.02 and 3M Yellow Polishing pad with some areas requiring me to step up to a Lake County Light Cutting Pad. A lot of areas required hand polishing such as the front spoiler vents.

    Lovely TVR! Not the easiest with all those angles, what did you use to polish out the wheels?
