    Last weekend a friend asked my if I could help him out with his heavily swirled 2006 Audi A8..

    The owner had already washed the car and dryed it for me, so it was only to clay with Megs mild clay and ONR as lube,,

    Then I started of with Scholl S03+ and Orange Uber polishpad.

    Since the guy is a fireman and I did the car at his work he had some coil equipment there and we got the chance to chuck out how hot the paint got, at this point it showed 57 degree Celsius, and the hottest it became was 80 deegres Celsius..

    As the next step I tried out Scholl S30+ and orange Scholl pad, but settled with Menzerna 106FF on green Uber pad.

    In the end of the day I was done with the hood, roof and truck.

    I finished the car the day after(Sunday).


    After polishing I degreased the car with a truckdegreaser to get rid of the oils from the polishing and then powerwashed.

    Then it was time for waxing with CG Vertua Bond and CG E-Zyme ..

    I’ll let the Pictures speak for themselves..

    Thanks Billy, E-zyme is very nice I think...
    The bad news about the car is that the owner met a truck today who stonechiped his intire hood and frontbumper, so it has be repainted and he has to change his 1 month old windshield:(

    an A8 huh? Looks like an S8, considering the s-line badge on the front grill.

    nice work. wheels look cool, but 22" is too big for a car IMO.

    +1 on the wheels being too big. But to each his own. I've seen a lot worse.

    Bernhard;
    How do u like cg e-zyme vs concorso from sv ?

    willing to buy some waxes from sv since its in the same price range

    have not tried any of them yet but the wax bug its there to tried them out
    especially after all the good review of them from the pros in here

    any professional opinion will be grateful

    looking for good excuse to buy the sv waxes :whistle:

    Great job on the car, I absolutely love Audi!!!

    by the way,

    [​IMG]

    are you, really???
     
  16. Bernhard

    Bernhard Birth of a Detailer

    Buy both:)

    I think that E-Zyme gives a deeper look than Concorso and the metalic really pops out with E-Zyme.. But Concorso is also great, but I haven't used it as much as E-Zyme:)
    But as I said, Buy both waxes:)
