This was booked in for correction and also some work to be done on the leather.

Engine bay was cleaned using BH Surfex, this made a easy job of removing the build up of grease

After all correction was complete I then went around vehicle with Megs 205 on a megs finishing pad. Dodo LPL was then applied by hand to vehicle in preparation for 2 coats of Dodo Supernatural. Tyres wer dressed with Zaino Z16 and arches dressed with Megs ASD. All chrome was polished using Brillant metal polishes

Plastic window polished with SV Vinyl Clear kit- right side treated

Roof was then cleaned and protected with 303

The interior needed some work as leather was a bit worn and faded, sun visors were badly scuffed in places. Someone tried to fix a few scuffs but didnt blend the colours well so this was addressed. Both seats, sun visors, center console and lower half of dash were all done
