    This Lexus was quilte a task, the paint had been “professionaly” treated several times befare With idiots who have no pride in their work..

    Scholl Crack 9000
    Scholl Rapid 9000
    HT
    CG CWG
    SS Mitts
    CG Miracle Dryer

    Tyres and rims got:

    CG Sticky Wheel Gel
    Swissvax Wheel Brush and Vikan Wheel brush

    We taped up a small area for testing, and we used the hood for testing, but we found out later that the hood had been repainted and they had put clearcoat on it, unlike the rest of the carL

    We ended up with yellow Uber pads, blue Scholl pads, Black megs pad and black Scholl pad..
    Scholl S17 removed the swirls and scratches and Scholl S40 and 3M Ultrafina(UK) did the rest..

    And the right front door wasn’t to good looking, probably it’s a old dryied out degreaser who has eaten it’s way in the paint..
