Today detail was for another Autopia forum member ebeldesign. I must say he was a pleasure to work with, and the car was in excellent condition to begin with.



Wash

Spot clay as needed.



EO All Wheel and Tire

Megs #38 on tires.



HTLC on CCS green via PC

Prime Stronge on CCS white via PC

AJT by hand



Aero 303 all exterior trim.



IG all exterior glass.



Sorry, no sun shots. Today was cloudy and rainy, which I suppose is good because we are in a drought and need the the rain badly.

I really want to thank Smprince for the work today. Extremely professional, the car looks great, and his prices are more than reasonable. Silver is a new world for me and I am very impressed with the work he did and the results he achieved. Thanks!

NICE WORK! Ok, settle the argument. Was the VW paint hard? So many different opinions.

Thanks for the kind words. It was a pleasure working with you.



It`s a shame the sun didn`t come out until after you took the car, since these photos don`t really show how bright your paint looked. I think you`ll really get great durability out of the Jeff`s Werkstatt products as well.

This car didn`t need a lot of correction so this was not necessarily the best test of that.



My opinion from the amount of work I did is that this car`s paint was on the harder side of the scale, not soft.

Very nice detail, car looked like it ought to be in a VW commercial. To the owner - how do you like the Passat? Is it the 2.0 Turbo? Auto or Stick ? Yeah, I like the car!

I really like the Passat. I got the 6-speed 2.0 T. The manual really doesnt suit this car nearly as well as it does the GTI, which surprises me. Once it gets off of the line, it has very impressive power, but it bogs pretty bad without revving it pretty high off of the line. Overall, I really like it and especially now that its all polished and shiney!
