Evo X RS one day blitz

[AutoGenie]

One of my regular clients owns a few Evo's and uses some of these alongside his tuning business. One such car is this modified RS X that needed the underside, paintwork, glass and interior decontaminated, cleaned, and protected prior to the Winter lay-up
Exterior
-Pre-contact wash with Autosmart G101 and Serious
Performance Citrus cleaner
-Rinsed
-Jacked the car up and cleaned the chassis with a variety of brushes and scrubbed the floorpan and arches, following but a high pressure rinse
-Dropped the car back onto the deck and cleaned the wheels, tyres, brakes and arches with Autosmart car shampoo and SP Citrus as well as Car-Chem iron remover for the alloys
-Rinsed again before a two bucket wash for the paintwork and glass using Autosmart car shampoo and re-rinsed
-Decontaminated to remove bugs, rubber from tyres, brake dust and tar using Car-Chem iron remover, Autosmart Tardis and Autosmart G101
-Rinsed again
-Dried with uber yellow towels
-Hand polished with Autosmart Evo 1 finishing polish
-Paint sealed with SP1000p for protection
-Glass sealed with Angelwax H2go
-Tyres dressed with Autosmart Highstyle
-Alloys sealed with SP1000p
Interior
-Mats removed and shampoo'd with Angelwax fabric shampoo
-Carpets shampoo'd and vacuumed dry
-All plastics dusted, cleaned and treated with Angelwax ANgel
-Seats vacuumed and cleaned using Autosmart Bio-Brisk



This car is one that I'm hoping to get the chance to machine polish in 2014, as it's been used hard for a couple of years now and the battle scars are starting to show! It's certainly no show queen

God I can't wait to get back in an Evo... We don't get the RS here in the states. Is the Evo X RS, Similar to the VIII RS? Does it still have manual windows, no wing, aluminum roof, stiffer dampers, etc?
