350z Protection detail


Envy Valeting

Recommended Posts

At last, after 3 years of forum sponsorship I finally got to break my forum cherry. Garry kindly booked me to detail his Zed! Cheers Garry :teeth:

Garry was booked to be done last year, but rain put pay to that, but we got to do it in the end!

Wheels cleaned 1st as usual with AS smart wheels and Envy brushes and EZ detail brush. Protected after with Wolfs Clean and coat WF-1NT. Superb stuff

 

Foamed with Bubbly Jubbly

Then washed with Espuma Astro shampoo and dried off ready for the clay (Chemical Guys blue clay)

Although strictly a protection detail I gave the car a light once over with Megs 205 as I knew it would work wonders on the soft paint.

The wax chosen was SW BOS, seen here baking in the HOT sun!

Time to polish the exhausts with Autosol.

The interior was hoovered, plastics cleaned and dressed with Dasheen, leather was treated to Dr Leather, glass with Crystal green. Tyres with RD50.

Wax was buffed off last to leave her looking like this:

Best wishes

Hey Tim. Wish I'd seen this on Friday.

 

Just done a full car detail (kuro black). Using DA and megs #83/80 on a megs yellow pad. It was left with very fine marring at the end and no amount of polishing even with a megs black pad buffer would shift it. It appears the paint really is very soft.

 

Would you expect megs #205 to finish the job?

 

For now, after DA polishing, I have applied some autoglym SRP to fill the fine marring and followed up with two coats of Zaino Z2 to seal the SRP in. Still looks the dogs bollocks with no swirls anymore at all.
