    This was booked in for a 2 day correction detail but ended up taking 3 days to get right...

    First up wheels and tyres were cleaned, wheels were cleaned with Epsuma Revolution Wheel Cleaner and tyres scrubbed with BH Surfex HD

    After all correction work was completed vehicle was given a high pressure rinse and paintwork was then refined using Megs 205 on a megs finishing pad. Once all refining was complete paintwork was given IPA wipedown a coat of Swissvax Divine was applied.

    Whilst wax cured the little jobs were completed such as polishing exhausts, cleaning windows, dressing tyres and applying protection to wheels

    Few finished shots
