DMR Ring Prep - Boss Man's Red Missile!!

(1/4) > >>

Greeners:
Hello Again Chaps,

Well I'm sure you are all familiar with this particular MK5!  :wink: As Steve was off to the Nurburgring for a thorough test of the new hardware and software on his car, he asked his most favourite detailer to give his car a spruce up ready for the trip!!  :jumpmove:

Due to time restrictions (yes Steve was late!  :laugh: ) there are no before pics I'm afraid, but I'm sure you can all have a wild guess at how she looked!!  :wink:

It was agreed that a light enhancement would be carried out, including a light interior detail.

- Wheels cleaned using AS Smart Wheels, vikan/lambswool brushes, decontaminated with Tardis/Iron X
- Tyres/arches cleaned using AS G101, vikan brushes
- Citrus pre-wash via foam lance, to remove loose debris/dirt, high pressure rinse
- Bodywork, door shuts etc washed using Auto Finesse Lather, 2BM and lambswool mitts
-Paintwork decontaminated with AS Tardis, contamination remove using Iron X
- Paintwork Cleansed with Lime Prime via DA, removing light swirl marks/haze, preparing paint ready for wax. Several areas had bad hazing, these areas were given a few passes with a microfibre pad to give a little more bite.
- Dodo Juice Purple Haze applied to paintwork
- Wheels lightly polished by hand, sealed using Mint Rims
- Tyres, plastics and rubbers dressed with Car Pro Perl, glass cleaned, exhaust/chrome polished
- Light interior detail, include mats/carpets clean, fabrics, plastics etc, glass cleaned

About 8 hours worth of work ended up with this:  :evilgrin:











































I think we all agreed she had never looked so fresh, but we also agreed there was more room for improvement at a later date!

Thanks for reading!  :happy2:

Hmm, nah, don't like that at all.



:drool:

Hedge:
Looks real good. Tornado Red done proper is very good.  :notworthy:

stealthwolf:
The skylights really help bring out the shine in the paintwork, so I'm puzzled as to why the Boss looks so glum in the pics!

Sorry Steve, I know you love the green and purple rims but the car looks awesome with black rims.

Andy:
looks perfect with the black rims
