2002 Jetta GLS. First time using a Machine...

A little background info...

I backed into a ditch at my mother-in-law’s and it scratched my side skirts all up. So, I borrowed my father-in-law’s buffer and some 3M Rubbing Compound, bought some wet/dry 1000 grit sandpaper and went to town. Buffed right out and looked so purty that I decided to do the whole car. I first washed and clayed the whole car. Then, I used 1000 grit sandpaper to wetsand all the scratches and crap off. I then used 3M rubbing compound to buff that out. Then I used Meguiar’s #2 Fine Cut to blend those spots in and then I used Meguiar’s #3 Glaze on the whole car. Next was the clay bar again. After that, I applied Meguiar’s ScratchX by hand to the whole car to remove the slight haze left from the glaze (the buffer I was using wasn’t really made for Auto paint buffing, but I made it work). Then, I used Klasse AIO all over the whole car and waited 24 hours for it to cure and then I applied P21S Pure Carnuba Wax. There isn’t a single scratch on the car now. Only a few rock chips. At any rate, the pictures don’t really do justice on how shiny the car is in person. =) Anyway, enough with my rambling. Let the pictures do the talking.



Pictures after complete detail...









I waxed the taillights and headlights also...

It’s good to see more Dubs in the house. Fresh and clean! :2thumbs:



Any mods [other than the obvious] worth noting?

Very nice VW. I wish we had a few more that looked like that around here.



Great work...



BTW, I like the front plate.

Thanks man.

I haven`t done any engine mods and the interior mods are very subtle, so what you see is pretty much what you get. I just wanted a nice daily drive. The `67 Mustang is my fun car.

Thanks to you too.

Yeah, usually I pay a lot of attention the how clen the engine bay is. But this time, I just didn`t have the time before pictures to finish the whole car.



I have a holiday and a vacation day coming up though. :heelclick
