    Detailed Sunnylunn's car over the last week, this was the best level detail I offer so it's quite indepth.

    To start with, not washed since late september but I did say don't bother as I know it needed a thorough claying etc:

    Car sprayed with citrus pre wash, wheels with Birtemax Ironmax:

    [​IMG]

    Trims out:
    [​IMG]

    All washed, alot of tar was still present:

    [​IMG]

    All the gaps etc cleaned with Birtemax Grime out and valetpro brush:
    [​IMG]

    Tarids applied and working it's magic:

    Long handled brush to get underneath:

    Then onto claying, tried out the Migliore Clay towel very impressed, then dried off:

    Rolled into the garage,taped up and paint measured:

    Took some bits off the car to help get better correction and access then onto the test panel:
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    In the end I actually settled on a yellow lake country pad with menzerna pf2400 via the flex 3401, onto the correction pictures:

    This left a nice finish:

    [​IMG]

    Previous touchups by stevie wonder made better:
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Even the undersides got polished:
    [​IMG]

    Second step was then Menzerna 4500 via black 3m pads on the rupes machines:
    [​IMG]

    Leaving:
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Then panel wiped and onto the Modesta primer,this gives a candy type effect to the paint and actually lasts a year just on it's own:

    The primer has to be left a minimum of 3 hours before any other product is placed on top so onto some other bits:

    Onto the Modesta BC-05, this isn't an easy product to apply and you go through a mountain of microfibers removing it which is like syrup,the blue applicator was at the end of application, the yellow one is from a previous detail, shows how it sets:

    Engine was tidied up:
    [​IMG]

    Wheels off to dress the arches and modesta the calipers, wheels are trackday ones so were only can coated, the other set have just been refurbished so will be coated with modesta too:

    This is a great device for getting some of the trapped dirt out of the fabric in these cars also helps remove some of the loose fabric:

    Then onto the Gtechniq Exo, this is put on to help the modesta set and not waterspot:

    Back to the inside,carbon backs of the seats were sealed with Britemax extreme elements:

    Trims with Sonax gummipfleger
    [​IMG]

    I then wanted to clear all the brakes off and make sure everything was ok so took it on a little run :smile:
    [​IMG]

    In reality the dials were cleaned:

    Mirrors cleaned and dressed:

    Cheers Steve lots of lotions and potions but the baseline is if looked after (which he WILL) he won't need to do anything but wash it to keep it looking like that for atleast 5 years. Did you miss the 0 off mate?
     
  21. I'm sure if I took a good guess I'd get the correct cost Ed, I'm sure you've looked after Martin as well as he's a mate, worth every penny mate, well done some serious dedication there mate , brilliant.

  25. bit upset with the Stevie wonder comment Ed :rolleyes: those touch ups looked good from 20 meters.The best looking R will be given the care it deserves come cleaning time.
     
  26. Ed you should make him clean out his garage now, it would be parked up in my garage with its cover on if I'd just had that done, not sat out in the rain
