jonb Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Had time at the BH to wipe a wet dishcloth over the paint, Monday was sunny so took some pictures, I definitely remember pointing it at the car even though I only seem to have pictures of the garage door and wall ?!

bronzee Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Fab reflections. Have to love black for that, or any really dark colours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I'm guessing it was fully detailed (either by detailer or by owner) but still like to know what products were used! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonb Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 Hah it definitely wasn't 50 layers ! I washed it, clay bar then a squirt of Meg Gold Class and later some Autoglym final finish stuff (the one like white spirits which was more to get rid of the dusty bits from the glass cleaner I also used). I also hate the claybar, one for basically being just an expensive piece of plasticine and second because you get to review, in detail, every last blemish fade and stonechip ... a harrowing experience. Though it does remove dirt from surprising places! It wasn't a massive production, an afternoon's elbow grease, I want to get the bonnet/bumper sprayed and another stonechip sorted soon so didn't want a thick crust of wax making life more difficult for that. Yeah it's raining this morning, it's also been collecting insects on the motorway too and was pretty much "far less shiny" by the time I got it home. But the price you pay for the beauty is brevity. Easy come, easy go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Nice finish. Looks to me like a good wash procedure is employed and a swirl free finish maintained! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
