You'd think if the guy was half way smart he'd show at least a <em class='bbc'>little[/i] more subtlety. :rolleyes:
 
The other day I received a PM on one of the forums that I visit. The message was from Bugatti Autombiles USA asking if I could detail a Veyron Super Sport that was in town for the Classy Chassis show. Well of course I said yes, I was already attending the show for a shop that I do some work for and have about 6 cars and 3 bikes I have cleaned up for it. We scheduled it for today and I was given the number to their test driver. We arranged to do the car at the shop that I go to from time to time, the guys at this shop are exceptionally nice and allow me to work there even if I'm not doing anything for them. I COULD NOT WAIT!!!! I met with the test driver(we wont mention his name just in case) and he told me Bugatti only wanted the car washed thoroughly and the inside cleaned. No wax, no polishing, no leather treatment......simply basic so if you are wanting to see a 33 page full corection, you wont see it here.

Anyway, the car was dirty from driving around and doing a press drive for Car and Driver(I believe) at Elington Field running up and down a run way yesterday.

Interior
1Z Cockpit Premium
Swissvax brush
Water to clean windows
Vac

Exterior
1Z Perls
Swissvax brush
Schmitt
Various brushes for wheels/wheel wells
Big Blue II waffle weaves for drying
I did spray the car down afterwards with Reload because I couldn't just leave it the way it was :)

I apologize for some of the pictures, I have to blur out the other vehicles in the shop. Some of the pictures are with my iphone and others are with the camera. I didn't have my tri pod so they aren't the best pics but you can still tell what I was working on LOL.

These are when it first came in and I began washing her :)

All finished washing and drying, I used the reload right before he left so this is without it at the moment

This is when he got to the show......the second time. He didn't know he couldnt have a full tank of gas so he had to go drive around to get down to a 1/4 tank, must be a horrible job LOL

And a little video of when he was leaving the shop
 
Here is a picture of the same car getting the paint corrected. Very cool!

How did the paint look? I have wondered how bad it has gotten swirled/scratched in the meantime.
 
When I was working on it I was thinking to my self if it was the same one. That's funny. Actually the finish was in really grea lt shape. A few light scratches, not swirls but other than that it looked amazing. It was an honor and a real pleasure working on it as you very well know.
 
Sheesh when does it stop in my tow? I will wash it free or charge.:biggrin::biggrin:

Looks like Todd's Ult. Wax is still beading nicely.
 
The wax wasn't bad that was on there. Some areas looked like they could be re touched, thats why I used the Reload. I didn't feel right not putting anything on there
 
Jay,
That is one hell of a car. It is so cool that you got an opportunity like that to clean her up. I would love to just see it in person, let alone get my hands on it. She looks great. And how cool, that it was the same car that Todd did such a masterful job on?:thumbup:
 
nice work and beautiful car. Also I would bet that he knew he couldnt have a full tank and filled it just so he had an excuse to drive it
 
LOL yeah that's what we were telling him. He ended up putting 150 miles on it to get down to 1/4 tank. Here in Houston, finding an open road is like finding the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. He couldn't really get on it so it took him longer. Either way, tough gig hahaha
