Wheels were cleaned with Espuma Revolution @ 10:1 with Envy Brushes, then onto the Bubbly Jubbly SSF. This little beauty took a very thorough clean as has not had a good wash in a while. A lot of ingrained dirt.

After the SSF it was onto the Espuma Astro with the Z sponge, rinsed and dried

Indoors and get the heaters on

Next the car was clayed with Dodo Juice Gentle grey and this took me 4hrs to do the little beauty. Sore hands and wrists after this stage. A lot of black specs that were a devil to remove.

Time to get serious after I measured the paint (all good)

Used a real assortment of pads and polishes from all suppliers to get the best out of the paint on this job.
