Last week Saturday I got a sms from Bevin ( aka Bevo ) asking me to do a friends car the following day ( Sunday ). We had a brief chat , talked price and booked the car. The car in Question was Ronald's Scirocco :hi: Sunday morning , Ronald contacted me as he had difficulties getting the car to me. During the week we rescheduled our appointment to yesterday. I got up at around 7am to get everything ready to leave. Arrived at around 8h45 and work immediately started. When I arrived the car was in a state. The car was dirty , but also full off bird droppings :bang: The car gets parked under a tree 
but funnily enough contamination wasn't TOO bad at all.
I started off by taking "before" pictures
After a 2 bucket method wash with Sonax Shampoo and drying the car I got to see the true condition of the paint.
Damage caused by bird dropping
Luckilly this was the only damage noted from all the droppings.
Time for IronX :troll:
As you can see , not bad at all. Boy oh Boy did Ronald and his friend enjoy the smell of IronX early in the morning :lol: :lol: After rinsing off the IronX i dried the car again and also cleaned the engine bay. After that it was time to bring out the polisher. Did my test spots and settled on Menz PF2500 on yellow cutting pads. The front fenders appeared yellow-ish to the rest off the car so I also hit the 2 fenders with SF4000 on green polishing pads. Off course after the polishing I took out the Menz PL and hit the whole car once over. The paint is as smooth as a baby's bottom after the PL.
The finnish was not 100% swirl free but it does look ALOT better. With all the smoothing of badges on the car and respraying the pannels there had been worked on , I noticed that the paint on the edges was very thin. Edges of which the Roc has ALOT on its body !!
Finally , some after Pics
The money shot :drool:
I had alot of fun working on this car and I must say , Ronald , you sir , have 1 amazing looking Roc :hurray:
