Waited a few days for a decent drop in temperature to start the mega detail, around the 85 degree mark and today was the day:-
A few before pics:-
Started off with the Snow Foam
Power washed and then hand washed with NO Nonsense APC and power washed again
Applied the tar and iron stuff, power washed and hand washed with No Nonsense APC and power washed again, then onto the clay bar, fair to say that as the car was new there were very little rough patches, so, it didn't take as long as expected
Got the windows coated with Rain X which must have been a sign, cause the heavens opened:-
Car in the garage with no protection on it at all, will hopefully finish it off tomorrow :xyxthumbs:
6 hours so far :buffing:
Rain over, but, so hot the polishes dry in seconds making for a lengthy process of application and buffing, however, another 3-1/2 hours of non stop action, i'm knackered, lol
Polished with Meguiars No7 glaze, then Chemical Guys Black Light Sealant and finally waxed with Collinite 476:-
I think it's fair to say i'm not so anal about the trim getting some polish on it, there was some on it from the dealer prep
I've still to do the wheels, exterior and interior trim, tomorrow is another day
