09 Golf TDI correction

Featured Replies

A customer of Ben (shark_90) had taken their 09 Golf TDI to a hand car wash & they left It In a bad state. I had the pleasure of correcting the damage. It looked like they had washed with a brilo pad. full right up http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?p=2060642&posted=1#post2060642

The owners husband has asked me to correct his 6/7 month old Passat, which has had the same treatment from the same handwash & Is In the same was, If not worse than as the Golf started out.

Excellent job Oz :thumbup:

Excellent job Oz :thumbup:

Thanks Bryan :thumbup: .

Now matter what John said about your paintwork, It isn't as bad as how this Golf came to me ;)

F me, how did they do that at the hand carwash?

Must have been grit central in the sponge :o

Number one reason I'd never trust a 'hand' carwash with anything - just doesn't bare thinking about!

I replied on the DW thread as well Oggy :)

Good correction :thumbup: Looked like a fairy liquid and brillo pad job before :o

Im glad you've finally got this up Oggy :thumbup:

When i popped down to the unit the cars paint was in a sorry state.

I couldn't believe how much damage had been inflicted on it in such a short period of time!

Under bright lighting, the drivers door looked like it had been wet sanded in places!

The car looked absoluteyl mint after!

I know the next car is going to prove interesting, and will be very good to see some after shots of that too :D

Keep up the good work mate.

P.S i bet your loving the Kestral DAS-6 ;).

Thanks everyone. I dread to think how they had washed the car to cause the defects shown :doh:

Keep up the good work mate.

Thanks buddy, I will try to take some good photos of the Passat.

TBH I am quite enjoying the Kestral Its just as good. The Kestral Is much more quieter & has less vibrations, but I wonder If my MegsDA had a problem from the outset. Anyway my faulty Megs DA has been replaced with a brand new unit thanks to some great customer care from MeguireUK :thumbup: I will hopefully have this In the for sale section later In the week If anyone Is interested ;)

As stated on DW, the after shots speak for themselves mate and you have done a great job there............ :thumbup:

Perfect set up with the use of the unit as well there Oggy and look forward to seeing the Passat and other forthcoming motors............. :thumbup:

Now matter what John said about your paintwork, It isn't as bad as how this Golf came to me ;)

Trust oggy to be trying to land me in it by bringing up the subject of your paintwork again Bryan :giggle:

As I remember, this is what I said about it:-

To be fair to Bryan though, the camera angle together with the low sun really show the car off worse than what, under normal circumstance, it really is.

Back OT - you've done a good job oggy.

As I said on Detailing World, that's a cracking job! B) Well done.

Now that's some stunning work... :thumbup:

I'm pleased to see that result as my Octy is in need of a similar revamp. :(

Thanks Simon I appreciate It :thumbup: .

The unit Is absolutly spot on especially with the lighting & I thank Ben for allowing me the use of It.

As the reply to you on DW about the Blackfire. I really do like it on dark cars & the product goes on & comes off really easily ;) .
