Octy 2 1.9TDi Ambiente - Shiny!!

Featured Replies

Hi

First 'Show it Off', so hope it is of high enough standard.

While we were car-less waiting for our Citroen C4 Grand Picasso, and SWMBO was in and out of hospital, my parents very kindly let us borrow one of their cars. :thumb: This a Skoda Octavia 1.9 TDi Ambiente in Corrida Red. As it happens, they have ordered a brand new Octavia 1.9 TDi Elegance in Flamenco Red Metallic. As they are collecting the new one on Tuesday they asked me to give the current car a going over for them before it goes as the Part Ex.

Sadly, no before shots as I forgot to charge the batteries!:doh: No interior shots either, as it was only a hoover out and wipe down job.

Wheels cleaned with AG Engine & Machine Cleaner, and rinsed with hose. I did the wheels a few weeks ago with SRP and EGP, so I definitely found them easier to clean up this time round. Car foamed with Superspray, using the complimentary shampoo that John included with the Superspray. Washed with wash mitt, then rinsed well, before being dried with MF's and Meg's NXT Speed Detailer. Then SRP applied to whole car with MF, then went back and buffed off with MF. Then applied EGP and left for an hour, then buffed off with MF. Tyres and trim treated with Meg's Endurance Tyre Gel. Exhaust tip cleaned with Meg's Metal Polish.

This was more for shine and effect, so correction was not really on the agenda
