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
