AUDI S3 Detailed
A couple of months ago we detailed this car and 3 days later it was involved in a small prang. While it went for some touch ups the panel beater did the usual polish and the after the first attempt they did a terrible job. Paint wasnt even and clear was patchy. We sent the car back and second time around they did a proper job that even shocked me. Well only the panel beating, they still polished the car and left light sanding marks/ buffer trails and overspray on the car.
Car was given a thorough wash followed by a 3 stage decontamination. Some areas the paint felt weird and even after an aggressive decon it still felt rough. Paint was then given a 2 stage paint correction which removed all buffer trails, sanding marks and left stupid amounts of gloss and clarity on the paint. Because protecting is was a major concern this time around. We opted for a paint coating.
2 layers of C QUARTZ FINEST Paint coating was applied and left to cure overnight followed by an overcoat using carpro reload in the morning. This will make the paint much more scratch resistant to light scratches and wash marring, more hydrophobic so water and dirt slides of, easier to wash, anti static and will last many many years to come.

Why make things easy for yourself when you can make them incredibly difficult and complicated.
