Helping a Friend Out...Wow CQUARTZ UK!

Old Pirate

AMG Classic Car Detailing
Another great friend wanted to try Cquartz UK on his Honda Civic. Well as I'm always willing to help a friend with his car I arrived this morning early to take advantaged in the cooler temps here ( right ) and get at it!. We first wash the car with Chemical Guys Citrus Wash Clear with a mitt and buckets of clean H2O.
But first we put up our tent to help from the tree sap and sun today.

Once we were done we follow up using Iron X Spray to remove all the junk that falls ones paint and wheels.

Then we rewash the car again and air dry to ensure a clean surface for the clay bar which show almost nothing at all on the bar.

Once we pull in the car under the tent we turn our attetion in doing some correction work on the paint. We decide to use M205 with the LC Tangerine Ultra Polishing Foam pads with our rotaries and PC's. With only using once the M100 with the LC Cyan Advanced Cutting Foam pad that was needed for a few spots, we got the look we were after in no time at all. Swirls remove and paint all clean up for our next step.

To ensure we get a very clean surface to apply our coating we use CarPro Eraser Intense Oil & Polish Cleanser to get to that point.

We got to finish up using Cquartz UK and he was very happy to see his car protected again from the elements of the Florida weather.

We finish off using Poorboy's World Bold N Bright Tire Dressing on the tires.

This one is the next victim for Cquartz UK.
