    This job was a referal from the client i did the Aud RS6 and Bentley RT for, he was also kind enough to let this detail take place at his property so i could use the garage as rain was forcasted:thumb:

    First up was to wash the wheels using Bilberry wheel cleaner and an assortment of brushes

    Engine bay and door shuts were cleaned with P21S TAW

    Vehicle was then foamed with Citrus degreaser and worked into all panel gaps, badges and then rinsed off and given a second foaming

    Vehicle was then washed with a lambs wool washmitt and Megs Shampoo Plus and rinsed.

    All lower sills were sprayed with AS Tardis and gently wiped with a microfiber to remove any tar. Vehicle was then clayed using sonus Green and megs last touch as lube

    vehicle was then dried and paintwork inspected. Light swirling and Random scratches were present on all panels. Tried to capture the defects but struggled to get any decent pic's due to colour. The pic below was the best one i had which shows some of the defects present

    As defects were minor only a single stage machine polish was needed so after trying a couple combo's I settled on using a Megs polishing pad and Swissvax Cleaner Fluid PRO. This removed all the defects and left the paintwork with a high gloss.

    Swissvax Divine was used for protection

    Divine was left to cure for a hour whilst i started on some of the smaller jobs

    Lovely shine!

    But I have a question: isn't Cleaner Fluid a bonding agent rather than a corrective polish? I have seen a lot of detailers using it for correction.

    Great job. I like the technique for applying tire dressing. Did you spray on the tire or on the brush? Also what dilution was the Bilberry? Always love seeing your work.

    bilberry was diluted at 5/1 (water/bilberry

    Well done there Jayplay, vehicle looks great, just curious the foam pad looks to be a different colour? Or is that just the light changing the colour of the foam pad?

    Always enjoy seeing/reading your details :thumb:

    thx nica,

    Could be the light on pad or it might be some green dye from my microfibers as wife did wash some pads together with some pakshak green towels:doh:
