    Hi Guys,

    Sorry I haven't been on for a while now, its just so busy at the Miracle studio now..

    Anyway, a while back, me and Mrs Miracle drove a few hundred miles in the Miracle van to visit my client with his new DBS which had arrived at the Aston Dealership. He wanted a 2 day Ultimate Miracle Detail which consists of full paintwork correction, 3 layers of secret polymer protection and topped off with Swissvax Crystal Rock wax. So me and the mrs checked into a nice hotel near by, as the 3 layers needed to cure overnight in the showroom before applying the Crystal rock wax the next day.

    Some of the products used:

    Karcher HD 801B
    R222 citrus degreaser
    Secret wheel cleaner (Currently in testing)
    Dual grit guard bucket system
    Z-sponge
    Secret shampoo (currently in testing)
    Secret clay (currently in testing)
    Ultra plush drying towels
    Metal halide lamp (don't leave home with out this now, halogens are rubbish!!)
    Festool Shinex Rotary
    3M Fast cut plus
    3M Extra fine compound
    3M Ultrafina SE
    3M buffing/polishing pads
    Secret polymer product
    Swissvax Crystal Rock wax
    Swissvax Pneu tyre dressing
    Swissvax window cleaner
    Swissvax Quick finish

    On to the pictures...

    Great work Paul! Thank you so much for sharing.

    How did you find polishing the CF rear diffuser?

    One more question how do dealerships usually take it when a customer requests a private detailer to come in to detail their cars at the dealership?

    Carn Welcome to Detailing

    Top notch work Paul, well done :thumb:

    The pics of you in action, are they taken by your missus, or do you have the camera on a tripod with a timer or remote switch?

    Re the metal halide lamps, do you have any details for us Paul? I have yet to see portable MH lamps down here in SA :shead:

    As far as I can see thats a green 3M compounding pad. Sure Paul will confirm though :thumb:

    Paul it looks great, can you post a picture of what your metal halide light looks like? I googled but I'm not sure if it's the right one.
