First of all, sorry for not posting updates in a while ( couple of months to be honest ). I don't always have the time to sit down and work through all the pics and then to do a write up worthy of reading for y'all 
Oky let's get down to business. I detailed Filipe's Megane for the first time in November '15. Instead of waiting 12 months for his annual topup detail, he booked the car in for a detail and Kamikaze ISM Ceramic Coating in August ( after seeing pics of my personal car coated with ISM ). The car hadn't been maintained the way it should have been since it's detail with me, although 90% of the damage visible was wash marring that can normally be corrected easily without having to take away too much clearcoat.
Please don't kill me as I don't have any "before" or "during" pics of this car. Filipe dropped it off a day late and backed up my entire schedule so I had to work overtime to get through my week which in turn caused me not to waste time on taking pics of everything I did on the car aswell as the other cars I did that week
Process:
Wash
- Wheels & Arches cleaned with APC, Valet Pro Bilberry wheel cleaner, various brushes & HP washer
- Paintwork had been foamed with HP washer & TurtleWax Snowfoam
- Hand washed using 2BM & Sonax Shampoo
- Dried with Ryobi leaf blower, QD & Drying towel
Decontamination
- QD & Fine grade clay
Paint Correction
- Compounded with Menz FG400 on Orange cutting pads
- Polished with Menz SF4000 on Green polishing pads
Thereafter the entire car had been wiped down with GTechniq Panel Wipe to ensure a 100% clean surface. After that it was time to break-out the Kamikaze ISM. All the surfaces had been coated with ISM, wheels & exhaust tip had been coated with Feynlab Hyperseal afterwards.
I took a pic after the coating had been applied:
Thereafter the car had been locked in the garage for around 37 hours ( I know only about 24 hours needed but like mentioned Filipe put me behind schedule before the detail started so I had to get through other work )
About 12 hours after the coating and still busy curing, in true Kamikaze fashion ( Streaks everywhere )
After 37 hours of hibernation, I took the car out of the garage and gave it it's very first wash ( rinse, foam, rinse & dried with overcoat ). Thereafter the tires had been dressed and I took the car to a mate's house for pictures. As always, none of the pics had been edited, all are cell shots, taken with my iPhone 6+
Now, the pics you have been waiting for, out in direct sunlight :drool:
Please note that the following pics are NSFW
Reflection of the sun playing mind games with my iPhone
My personal favorite for the day
