I was contacted by S5Dan a month or so about doing a new car prep on his recently acquired S5. Unfortunately our schedules didn't mesh up so well but were finally able to get together last night at Designo in Sterling. Let me just say that I am again impressed with how far Audi has come in the last half decade or so. They build some of the most beautiful vehicles I've ever seen, and Dan's S5 is certainly no exception!! No before pictures, as we didn't get started until almost 7pm, but I'd say the afters look pretty nice!



Products used:


  • Sonax Full Effect wheel cleaner
  • Meguiar's APC
  • Chemical Guys Citrus Wash
  • Pinnacle Speed Clay
  • DoDo Juice Born Slippery clay lube
  • CarPro Iron X
  • Stoner Invisible Glass
  • Blackfire Wet Diamond
  • Poorboy's Wheel Sealant
  • Wolfgang tire shine

Thanks for looking!

Brian,

Very nice work. I'll be polishing out my 2011 A4 for the first time in the next week or so. Just curious...

Did you tape off? How did you handle the lip on the trunk lid? Any other tips for polishing an A4?

Thanks,

Dan.

I'm actually a fan of Armor All's gel, comes in an orange squeeze bottle.
