This saw a trip out to the Cotswolds and the Paintwork on this was dreadful and every panel apart from roof and bumpers had been resprayed at some point and it wasnt a very good paint job.

First up was to wash wheels and arches
- tyres scrubbed with Megs SuperDegreaser and brush
- wheels cleaned with Valet pro Bilberry wheel cleaner and various brushes
- arches cleaned with brush and APC
- tyres dressed with SV Pneu
- wheels treated to cleaner fluid a coat of sv autobahn

Wash
- pre soak with citrus degreaser working into all badges and panel gaps with a sv brush
- wash with Megs Shampoo Plus
- lower panels sprayed and wiped with Tardis
- vehicle clayed with Poly Clay

Paint readings were taken

All panels apart from roof and bumpers were corrected with 3m FCP on a 3m black waffle pad with some requiring several hits. Roof and bumpers were easily corrected with 106fa. This was then followed up with Menz 85rd

50/50 shots
