Before
Soaked with SSS and then washed with the 2 bucket method
Wheels and arches with PS21
Then dryed, followed by clay bar (Megs & QD)
Then washed again with 2 BM and Megs Gold Class shampoo.
Dryed and masked off, ready for PC
Seeing as it was the first outing for the PC progress was slow at first, and took a while to get the process right, but using Sonus pads I managed to remove some swirls/cobwebs and then polish to the next stage.
I have already ordered some 4" pads as I found that some of the imperfections were difficult to get at with the 6" pads. So I am expecting to improve on the finish next time.
Total time I guess took about 8-10hrs over 2days, finished with Sonus polish and then applied 2 coats of Collinite(1 coat per day) by hand and buffed off with PC and Sonus buffing bonnet.
As you will see in the last picture the car used to be looked after very well by Cambridge Autogleam, so I have a long way to go yet!
For the those eagle eyed of you, the lines in some of the bonnet & rear shots is the Armourfend not scratches
..... great stuff but a PIA to work round.Some pictures of the finished car.
How the pros do it
