I detailed my friend's Golf Variant IV today. Only a good wash, claying and waxing was done. Not polished this time.



The process and used products:



1) Pre-wash

- Korrek Lensitil BR spray detergent + powerwasher



2) Foam wash

- Bilt-Hamber Autofoam + PW



3) Hand wash

- Turtle Wax Big Orange + PW



4) Claying

- Zaino Z-18 Claybar

- Turtle Wax Big Orange sprayed as lubricant

- Powerwashed after



5) Waxing

- AutoGlym Super Resin Polish

- AutoGlym Extra Gloss Protection

- Collinite 915

- Mother's Reflections Top Coat



6) Tires + black plastics

- AutoGlym Instant Tyre Dressing

- AutoGlym Bumper Care

Then, after the handwash it was claying time:

AG SRP:

- I have a big 1 liter bottle of AG SRP, so it's easier to use a little pot when waxing.

After AG SRP and EGP:

- Maybe EGP was not needed because of following Collinite layer, but I just wanted to be comprehensive on this.

Collinite 915:

- It was my first time with Collinite, and I found it very easy to apply and polish!

Mother's Reflections Top Coat:

- Again, maybe not needed, but wanted to try it.

I know the car will be dirty again tomorrow, but since it's properly waxed now, so maybe it's a bit easier to keep clean. There was no any kind of wax left when I started.



All comments are welcome! :)
 
Looks great and still snow in April!



I find that VW silver to be very bland but you have got it to shine really well, nice work!
 
Yeah, that headlight shot is as close to good flake pop as you can get with reflex silver. My Jetta is that color and I love it for ease of maintenance, but for easily captured moments of OMG MY CAR LOOKS GREAT, it disappoints.



Really good job of shining that up.
 
Thank you fellows.



I wanted to do this car to test my new products: Collinite 915 and Mother's Reflections Top Coat. But maybe the color wasn't the best possible to show their best sides. Besides, I felt sorry for the car because of it's bad condition :p.
