Today we cleaned up a 1987 XJ6. I work with the owner who has had this car since it was brand new.
We were working with a budget, but I wanted to perform a 1-step polish to remove some swirls and restore some gloss
Let’s begin with some before shots.
Car was in really good shape.
Random water spots
Greasy substance
Interior was in good shape, just a good wipe down and vacuum.
Wash Process
Wheels looked clean.
Wanted to make sure they were clean between all the slots. Using Mini EZ brush
Not as clean as they looked
Initial foaming
Clay bar treatment
After just the roof
Getting all the little areas
Car was foamed and washed again
Dried and taped up. On to the polishing.
Got a couple packages from Detailers Domain and Autogeek while working on the car
Pad washer comes in next week!
Some final shots
Some minor swirls remained, as it was only a 1-step polish.
Interior:
Vacuumed everything, protected mats with 303 Fabric Guard
Dash and doors wiped down with Cockpit Premium
Seats got Leatherique
Some more exterior shots
Thanks for looking.
