Envious Detailing: AUDI SAVE???

[Envious Eric]

Here is a little teaser of what I am currently working on...so far I have spent 2.5 hours on a wash, clay, wash, complete wheel cleaning ONLY. This car is hammered! and it only has 10K miles on it...this is why you dont use a metallic brillo pad on cars....:argue

My initial reaction was, "Oh, God...what the &@#$!!!"



Can`t wait to see the afters.

if you were near, id come over and help you. damn! i see lots of compounding and gritting.

[ReLoaDeD BuLLiT]

that`s unacceptable. that person does not deserve that car.

[imported_slicknickis3]

Wow....I`ve had a couple cars come in with the old brillo pad treatment, but never over the entire vehicle. You`ve definitely got your work cut out for you!



Can`t wait to see you work your magic!

[Chicagoareanew]

Unbelievable! I hope you have a before shot that shows the whole car, because I can`t imagine what it would be like to see that on the street. I`m really interested in seeing how good that car can get.

[Envious Eric]

well, over an hour to tape up all the edges and seems...I know I am going to have to get super aggressive with this one...just tried SIP on PFW at 1700 and its barely putting a dent in it! next step M105 and yellow solo wool pad....



updates ever few hours while I take my much needed breaks...I need to finish this car by tomorrow night because I have a couple of cars to prep for the Seibon show thursday and friday, and other detail work on wednesday..its going to be a LOOOOONG day/night!!



Oh and it wasnt the owner who washed this car, it was his friend...the owner knows better!!!!

[Chicagoareanew]

Well, I bet this is the last time his friend ever touches his car. You should try and sell him some car wash supplies or something lol.

[byalegend]

Seriously? Was his friend high?

[WAS]

I had to google what the f*** a brillo pad even was (we know them as SOS pads here). Seriously, an SOS pad to a car`s paint ? ... ?!!?!?!?



I am looking forward to the after shots, this is going to be an awesome correction, one for your photo album for sure !!!!

[Envious Eric]

well after all the trial and error, I finally came up with a game plan...



megs solo yellow wool + 105

Menzerna SIP + PFW

menzerna SIP + megs polishing pad

Menzerna FPII + LC blue



That prcess produced these results:::

now to get on with the rest of the car instead of just a 1/2 fender in over an hour...LOL

[imported_Picus]

Hah, that car is going to make for some epic 50/50 shots man. I am really interested to hear why the "friend" washed it with a brillo or whatever? I mean I have seen some stupid stuff but...what the hell?
