[Jay@Gleaming Kleen]

The customer had made the the short trip over to me to drop the car off for a few days


Firstly i foamed the car with AG Powermax 3

Left to dweel for a few minutes then rinsed at high pressure

Next up were the wheels and arches - i used Surfex HD and a brush for the arches and tyres and Epsuma Revolution Wheel Cleaner for the wheels:

I then proceeded to wash the car with the 2 bucket method and Megs Shampoo Plus

My next step would usually be to clay, however customer had some protection film and a few other bits he wanted removed so I set about removing these first

The protection film around Targa Top opening was looking a bit worn so client also wanted it removed

Vehicle was then clayed with Sonus green and Megs Last Touch as lube

After claying vehicle was given another foam with a weak mix of AG Powermax 3 and rinsed at high pressure. Vehicle was dried and paintwork was inspected and paint measurements were taken using the Positestor 200

I set about finding a combo and settled on using Gloss It Evolution Cut on a 3M Polishing pad primed with Gloss It EVP, some area's on bonnet required a drop of 3M FCP

Due to the colour of vehicle I struggled to get some decent pics of the swirls and gave up after awhile but here is few defects that I did manage to capture.

I think the colour is great, prob due to the car though as a few micras and primeras have a similar 2 tone colour and look shocking
