    Audi A5 S-line
    Well I had the pleasure to work on this beauty and could see that the owner loved and treated their car very well. The paint was in decent shape, just some wash marring on the panels and what I found out later was a bad buff job by a paint shop on the left quarter panel. I love the colour and the rims on this baby.

    The Process
    Wash
    Wash was done in two steps as it was hot out and my hose didn’t quite give me enough play to get it done correctly outside.
    Cleaned the rims with Autoglym Custom Wheel Cleaner and a microfiber mitt and an EZ detail brush as well as a Swisswax brush for some of the tight spots.
    The rest of the car was washed indoors using ONR and an Uber Sponge.
    The correction
    The paint was corrected with 3 and 5.25 inch green GI pads and Menz 203 via two Flex rotaries, LD and HD. (sorry I never remember model numbers)
    The clear bra was correct via a PC XP and a blue Gi pad and Menz IP
    The interior was vacuumed using a rigid propak, and then extracted with an Azec hot rod.
    Various brushes and a little APC used to clean the vinyl
    The leather was cleaned with Lexol Cleaner
    The windows were done using Sprayway glass cleaner
    Rims saw a coating of Blackfire all metal sealant as well as the exhaust after being polished out.
    The tires got a new dressing formula to me, ProShield Blue Magnum, which looked very deep and rich
