First layer of Swissol on and off, you can't get the deepness of the colour from these pics...but in the flesh the finish is superb.

Another coat of waz then onto detailing the rubber and plastics...

Bob, nothing to be done with stone chips. And don't use chipsaway, just a temp make over their paints are too soft.

Rubber and plastics treated, scratches on sills removed, glass cleaned, a little more paint cleaner and there and we are ready for the final waxing

All done. Fantastic results, Dave attention to detail and dedication are a marval, 10 hours graft

Recon'd all the vinyl and rubber, this is a pic of half/half so you can see the difference

I can't praise Dave's work enough, and the pictures don't do it justice. I have just been standing staring at the amazing finish for ages. A four year old car looks like new again.

I'll do a write of the process in the next few days. It's worth every penny.
