After a friend referred Phums to me, he had booked his Golf7 .:R for a full detail after a brief chat with me. The car was dropped off at my place at around 8am on Sunday morning. The car was rather dirty, with the paint and gloss black bits on the exterior in desperate need of some love.
Upon Arrival
I started off by cleaning the interior ( as I always do ). I vacuumed the whole car, followed by a compressed air blow-out, followed by a vacuum again. After this I cleaned and treated all the leather aswell as wiping off all the door cards, centre console etc.
This was the outcome-
Clean Interior
After that I cleaned the engine bay, which was fairly clean to start off with. I had blown all the dust out, cleaned with APC and various brushes and finally rinsed off with the HP washer before drying the engine bay again. Pics of the engine bay will follow later on.
Next up was the wheels and wheel arches. I cleaned them using APC, VP Bilberry Wheel Cleaner, AF Iron out, various brushes, HP washer.
Wheels After
The door shuds, petrol flap and badges were cleaned with APC and VP brushes. Thereafter the car got rinsed and foamed up, followed by a 2bucket wash method, rinsed off again and dried. After that it was decontaminated with AF Iron out followed by a clay session using a fine claybar. The paint was corrected making 2 passed on FG400 with Cyclo Orange pads, followed by 1 pass of SF4000 on Green Cyclo pads.
B-Pillar Before
B-Pillar After
Taillight Before
Taillight After
After polishing, a coat of Menz PL was applied, left to haze and wiped off. The glass, exhausts, tires, arches and other trim had been treated aswell.
After a long day of working on the car, this was the end result - Enjoy :grin:
After
Reflection shots
Eye Candy
Thanx for watching
