Under the Sun Gun to assess the finish...

Paintwork cleansing and glazing was carried out using Lusso Revitalisin Cream applied by hand which added a little extra wet look sheen to the dark blue, and then the whole lot protected using Victoria Concours wax... like revisiting an old friend, it was great to see how this wax still holds its head high amongst far more expensive company. It was a great wax a couple of years ago, and its still a mighty fine wax

Glass was cleaned with Stoner Invisible Glass.

Plastics dressed with Meguiars All Seasons Dressing... the black underskirt on the front bumper was damaged in the bodyshop, and appeared to have been sprayed with basecoat

Tyres were dressed with Meguiars Endurance Tyre Gel.

End results in the unit...

Alas, no sun today, but outdoor shots in a lovely East Coast haar...

Another very enjoyable detailing day, great to meet Stuart and Andrew and I look forward to seeing you both at a meet soon - and the car as well! :thumb:
