Lovely day for Detailing an Audi S3

Featured Replies

Many thanks to Chris & Alan, it is looking great. 

 

Since getting the S3 I have only clayed and sealed it before, this is the first time any correction has been done. The car had quite bad cobweb scratches from a year of improper washing technique by the previous owner. There were also a fair few stone chips on the bonnet. I had filled these and sanded them back flat before bringing it up to Chris. post-103429-0-01079700-1429802861_thumb.jpg 

 

So the steps it went through are as follows:

  • Soaked with a snow foam and TFR mix to remove most of the dirt and help remove the remains of the previous sealant
  • TBM with added Autobright wax off 
  • The wheels were soaked in fall out remover to clean off the brake dust, these didn't need much attention as I have already cleaned and sealed them with Gtechniq C5 
  • Dried car
  • Polished out the sanding marks with a Rupes rotary, 3" medium pad and Sonax EX 04-06
  • Polished the whole car with the Flex 3401 VRG, 5" medium pad and Sonax EX 04-06
  • Wiped down with IPA/paint cleaner mix
  • Sealed with Sonax Nano Paint Protect
  • Sonax BSD top-up on the wheels

Don't think they do them in your size  :notme:

I really do need to get booked in with you some time Chris... once the car is back from the body shop.

 

I've always had a lot of light surface/swirl marks that need sorting.
