AUDI S3 Detailed
Every now and then you do car where you will see that the owner will really really appreciate the work and take really good care of it, this was one of those details..
Before this car was bought by the current owner, it was booked in. Then for the next couple of weeks i had calls and messages to confirm that the car was booked and long talks about how excited he was with hes new car. He just couldn't wait to get the detail done. The car was in fairly good condition apart from the paint being hacked by a previous "valet" job, wheels had the usual baked in brake dust and paint felt rough. Nothing unusual for car this age.
Car was given a thorough wash followed by a 3 stage decontamination which removed all the paint contamination and left a very smooth surface to work with. A single stage paint correction was done which removed all buffer trails, swirls & water spots using RUPES compound. There after a refine/ condition was done using swissvax cleaner fluid to punch out maximum levels of gloss and condition paint for wax.
A Layer of Swissvax concorso wax was then applied for protection. This left and extremely glassy and reflective finish after it baked in. Wheels were given a coat of swissvax autobhan wheel wax, tyres were treated with AF satin. Rubbers and trim were treated with AF Revive & Dressle.
