Audi R8 correction

Well I thought a Audi R8 white would be an easy day, how wrong I was..... DA sand scratches, rids and some buffer trails.


WASH: GI soap
CLAY: P&S fine clay (clay lube GI soap)
WHEELS:P&S brake buster
TIRES: P&S natural finish tire dressing

CORRECTION: Megs 105 da approved formula w/GI fast cut foam GI extreme cut with same foam pad and GI evp pad prime

POLISH: GI evolution with GI blue polish foam pad
FINISH: Megs 205

LSP: GI Signature sealant/ followed with two coats of concorso

INTERIOR: P&S Express interior cleaner/ GI satin leather polish for dressing


Before pics










Lot's of dirt in the vents








Compounding out the DA sand marks, never have seen this on a Audi only Aston Martin and the rear bumpers of 997 Porsches(from the factory)





Wheel cleaning(slightly easier than the SL-55 earlier this week lol)





Engine bay tightened up





Finished pics




















Interior pics








Love the Carbonfiber!!!!!

Re: Audi R8 correction

AC -

What are your thoughts on the GI pads. Looks like both GI Pads and backing plate...
Those pads are quite pricey....

Re: Audi R8 correction

Nice Job Bob! how long did the correction process take? Is that your garage or the clients...The floor looks nice, wondering what kind of coating is on there?

Re: Audi R8 correction

Email GI direct. AFAIK, it's not on the site and you have to email me them so they can generate a invoice manually,
