This one saw a very early start to the morning as it was in London
vehicle on arrival
On inspection even before washing it was very noticable that the car was covered in large dull patches which after a discussion with owner he admitted to using AG Paint Renovator to try and remove some off the bird etchings.
Wash
-Megs Shampoo Plus with ***** sponge
-Lower panels treated to tardis to remove any tar
-clayed using Sonus green and last touch as lube
Wheels & arches
-tyres and arches cleaned with megs super degreaser
-alloys cleaned with P21s wheel gel and various brushes
-Tardis applied to inner's to remove Tar
-SV cleaner fluid applied folowed by 2 coats of SV Autobahn wheel wax
Exterior Potection
-IPA wipe down followed by 2 coats of zaino Z2 and a wipe down with Z8
-exteriors plastics treated with SV Pneu
Some of the defects
After trying several combos I found using a 3m cutting pad and 3.02 to work with some areas requiring 3m FCP at 2000 rpms. This was then refined with Menz 85rd on a megs finishing pad
50/50

After
Some finished shots
