  • 2013 Range Rover Sport detail

    A Range Rover Sport arrived today from my mate Bob.

    First thing's first, snowfoam:





    Alloys next, first cleaned with the impressive Power Maxed Alloy Wheel Cleaner



    Then sprayed with Bilt Hamber Korrosol











    Agitated with Wheel Woolie and Daytona Speedmaster





    Autosmart Tardis working on a stubborn tar patch on the inside of one of the alloys



    BiltHamber SurfexHD with stiff brush used on tyres



    Lots of grime from the tyres



    Autosmart G101 and ValetPro brush used on panel gaps, petrol filler cap, roof aerial and window rubbers













    Indicator before



    Indicator after



    All rinsed then BH Korrosol applied to bodywork











    Rinsed again then Farecla G3 Detox Clay Mitt and Farecla G3 Detox Shampoo applied to bodywork







    Rinsed again then a 2BM wash with Sonax Deep Gloss Shampoo and a CarPro Merino Wool Mitt







    Final rinse to leave this



    Started raining so brought half into the garage to dry with a Wooly Mammoth





    Bonnet fully dried then taped up with the blue 3M



    Using this Wolf's Chemicals Carnauba Glaze with a black finishing pad



    Buffed off then Dodo Supernatural Hybrid Sealant applied with a G3 wax applicator



    Buffed off to leave this





    Reversed it in now and again taped up. The whole of the car had no swirls whatsoever which is a credit to Bob apart from on the boot lid just above the RANGE ROVER letters. LED spots in garage show swirls up well



    Used Megs 105 with a DA



    A good result



    Tape off now to show 50/50



    Rest of bootlid finished





    And drove outside the garage now to get inside the car (still raining) to feed the leather and dress all plastics and surfaces.

    Leather before



    Leather 50/50



    Leather after





    This gel is brilliant



    Front seat armrest before



    Front seat armrest after



    Rest of interior vacuumed with Nilfisk and dressed with PERL and an Autosmart air freshner added







    Exterior trim dressed with AutoFinesse Revive



    50/50 with AF Revive





    SNH on huge roof



    Tyres dressed with FinnishKare Tyre Dressing



    A few jobs left to do tomorrow, alloys to be sealed with Planet Polish Wheel Seal and Shine, all glass to be coated and under bonnet to be dressed. Here's the end result from todays 10 and a half hours.

















    Yet another rain shower produces this beading on the bonnet



    And on the rear boot spoiler



    Thanks for reading

    Andy

                Under the bonnet now looked like this at first











                Autosmart G101 and Highstyle working really well













                Planet Polish Wheel Seal and Shine applied with a sponge applicator to alloys



                Buffed off with microfibre cloth to leave this



                Quick coat of Sonax BSD to create a really shiny, well protected motor now



















                Thanks again for reading. Off for a lie down now

                    Very thankful indeed that it didn't require a full correction Mark. Would've half killed me ;-)
