    I was asked recently to carry out a detail on a Ford Fiesta Zetec. The car is 3 years old and never been detailed, and washed poorly whenever it was washed....onto the pics of the detail:

    On arrival:

    Onced washed then treated with Autosmart Tardis, initially attempted with Dodo Juice Tarmalade, but there was just too much tar to waste the Tarmalade, then the car was clayed with Dodo Juice Gentle Grey Clay bar and Dodo Juice Born Slippy for lube:

    The car was washed once again then dried using a hot air dryer (from carwashnwax):

    Paint depth readings were taken (pics didnt upload), then a test area to decide on compound and pad combination:

    The car was then treated to two coats of Dodo Juice Purple Haze Pro applied approx an hour apart, the Alloys were treated to Zaino Z2 then Swissvax Autobahn, the Class cleaned with Dodo Juice Clearly Menthol glass cleaner, the side glass treated with Dodo Juice Red Mist, the door shuts treated to Red Mist, the trim treated with Swissvax Nano Express the Tyres with Swissvax Pneu. I hoovered the Interior and steam cleaned the interior including the dash and interior plastics.

    The end results:
