Engine bay was given a foam with AG Powermax 3 and then worked into area's with various brushes and a microfiber cloth
After engine bay was clean I started the wash and deconyamination stages on the exterior including all door shuts. All shuts, panel gaps and trim were sprayed with AS G101 and worked in with a Envy brush and then wiped clean with a microfiber
Vehicle was foamed with AG Powermax 3 and this was worked into all emblems to looosen the buid up of polish residue
Foam was left to dwell for a few minutes before being pressure rinsed off
vehicle was then washed with a lambswool wash mitt and Megs Hyper Wash, rinsed off and then all paintwork and glass was clayed using Sonus SFX and Megs Last Touch as lube. Once claying was complete the vehicle was quickly foamed again, rinsed and then dryed using a thick microfiber drying towel.
Wheels were then removed to allow me to add some protection to the inner area's of the wheels that would have otherwise been hard to get to with the wheels are on the car. These were first cleaned with P21S and then given a good spray of Iron Cut to remove any remaining decontaminates before being clayed. Once clean they were given a good wipe down with IPA and Nanolex Premuim Alloy Sealant was applied.
Arches were given a thorough clean and degrease
Before...
BH Surfex being worked in with a brush
paying attention to the calipers...
Tardis used to remove any stubborn tar...
Wheel arch clean and dressed with Megs ASD...
Rear before...
and rear after...
There was a chip on one of the front and rear calipers so this was touched in..
These were then sealed with Nanolex Premuim sealant
With the exterior complete I turned my attention to the engine bay, I removed all carbon fiber parts to be machine polished
I used a workbench to screw down the parts then machine polished them using Menz 3.02 and then followed up with Menz 106 on a finishing pad. Different size pads were used to allow me to get to some of the more tighter areas.
These bits are prone to go milky looking over a period of time due to the heat in the engine bay so I used Nanolex Professional Sealant.
Exhaust box polished using Brillant Metal Polish's and various pads on the DA, this was then sealed with Blackfire Metal Sealant
Before...
and after.
Swissvax Pneu as used to dress some area's and then Swissvax MotorShine was used to seal the the engine bay
All completed
With engine bay completed I then turned my attention to the paint,
