This detail was booked before the owner had even purchased the car, and so when it arrived the day after he collected it I could quite possibly have been more excited than he was 
:lol:
Day 1
Inspection on delivery
Surface dirt and TOGW (The other guys wax)
Wheels
Horrendous tire dressing
Exhaust Tips
Swirls/RIDS
And some buffer trails
Window Rubbers
Greasy trim
Hacked up bumper (under where the license plate holder was)
Arches: Cyclo APC / Mothers Fender Well Brush / HP Rinse / Glossworx - Extreme Tyre Shine (This is a definite winner in my books so far. A little goes a long way and the spray pattern of the bottle it comes in assists here. Its priced really well at R108/500ml and it left the arches looking good.)
Tires: Glossworx Wheel and Tire Cleaner / Mothers Tire Brush / 2 coats Optimum Optibond Tire Gel
Wheels: Glossworx Wheel and Tire Cleaner / Daytona Jnr / Various brushes/ Autoglym Intensive Tar Remover / APC rinse / AF Iron Out / Daytona Jnr / HP Rinse / Flooding Rinse / Menzerna Powerlock
Door shuts, window rubbers, fuel flap, badges: Cyclo APC / Various Brushes / HP Rinse / Collinite 845 / Chemical Guys Pete'53
Wash: Chemical Guys Maxisuds II via foam cannon / Glossworx Shampoo / 2BM with Lambswool wash mitt / Rinse
Dry: ONR at QD strength / WW Drying towel / Compressed Air
Decontamination : Autoglym Fine Grade Clay / ONR at clay lube strength - I decided not to use any tar or iron remover for possible side effects on the decals.
Kyle was then kind enough to come around and let me test drive his PTG. The following readings were taken in microns:
Roof - min 102, max 135, avg 110
Bonnet - min 107, max 450, avg 250
Driver fender - min 130, max 265, avg 200
Driver door -min 87, max 185, avg 150
Driver rear panel - min 110, max 172, avg 134
Passenger fender - min 142, max 247, avg 210
Passenger door - min 127, max 195, avg 150
Passenger rear panel - min 80, max 183, avg 140
With the paint now decontaminated it was easy to capture the water spots
I then set about taping up - this was a tedious process and took well over 3 hours to complete :crazy:
