Reflections Detailing : Mk6 Golf GTI

Post by Lambchop »

Hi Guys,

Been a while since I have documented a detail. So here it is .. Neelesh asked me if I could help him out late last year with his car as he needed it detailing and coated. Needless to say I was happy to assist him.
He brought the car round on the Friday night and got cracking on the Saturday morning.

Here are the before pics of the car.. What ever you do, do not leave bird droppings on your car.. EVER!!!!
Can was decontaminated with Iron out clayed foamed and washed. Wheels were decontaminated and washed thoroughly.
finished off with Gtechniq coatings for some lasting protection.

I totally forgot to take pictures of the paint readings and paint defects.
The readings were well in to the 160 micron on average which is great. defects were very mild and made it slightly easier to correct the paint to Kudos to Moolz for looking after his rideImage

B-Pillars were a mess. I didn't take after pics but they were a million times better than where they started out.
