Audi A6 Hybrid @ the detailien HIVE

Yet another Audi A6 Hybrid @ the detailien HIVE to be protected with OptiCoat PRO.

The Audi A6 Hybrid has been extremely popular in Malaysia due to a favorable hybrid tax break.

This is one of the many Audi A6`s which we have done lately.

As with all of our details, the car is first washed to clean off the daily dirt and grime.

The engine bay and wheels are also cleaned.

No details is spared. Even the under hood is cleaned.

Final rinse down before being prepped for correction.

A preliminary paint inspections shows some slight swirls and a few RIDS. Nothing serious this time.

Even though the paint is in fairly good condition, it is still fully corrected to ensure the surface is in as good a condition as possible before coating.

The plastic B-Pillars are notoriously easy to scratch...

Door handles are also easily scratched up by fingernails.

All done!

OK, you did an amazing job on the door-handle pockets, but what did you use to get in there and make a finish like that?

The marks behind the door handles are from fingernails. They are actually quite easy to remove. If you want to remove the residue just for appearances, you can try using Optimum Power Clean. It does a great job at removing the fingernail residue.

If you want to remove the scratches then Optimum Hyper Polish with a foam applicator pad by hand will work.
