Jeff's CSL was in for a tidy up before the CSL trip. That got Wolfs Hard Body and Wolfs Glass Guard after it was fully clayed.

Attachment 101

Is there anything good for engine bay that doesn't leave it slick looking. Don't like that just cleaned look. Prefer it to look just clean if you know what I mean

Yeah Dave, most dressings used are silicone and attract dust and leave that gloss finish, we use Aerospace303 unfortunately non in stock at the minute but will have it in soon, its fantastic stuff and lasts!

The 650 above was treated with Aerospace on the bay

50/50 hard to really see this one but left sode of light was polished still needed another couple of passes.

Spent 2/3 hours so far on bonnet and still needs another 2 easily!! Another job that seemed easy to start but as soon as them Halogens go on its a different story :D

C'mon Chris get the finger out!! ;)

Didn't get to do a full thread on this so here is all I have, managed to leave the camera at home on the last day and no after shots was too dark when the owner came to collect!

So here goes....This is how the body shop basically left the paint, has had a few bad washes since the respray but most of the damage was from the painters, something I see with 80% of details...

There was also a lot of damage from been parked under a tree all the time, unfortunately this didn't want to come out, would ideally need another 2 days to make the roof, bonnet and bootlid along with the rest of the car pop some more.

Job in hand was full interior and exterior enhancement. This would take a good bit (80% or so) of the damage from the paint and add some life to the lovely colour it is. I did 2 stages on the bonnet, bootlid and roof as they needed some more love!!

Not many pics, mainly befores of the first day with prep and trying some panels out..

these marks are from the bodyshop again, using tape on the paint which left these marks, again not all of these came out but they did come down a fair bit.

Test section in the corner, looks better but decided to up thing to a heavy compound followed by the refining.

This was a section that got some more love, but even after a coupl of stages of polishing the staining was still evident in the paint, looks a lot better but little disappointing at the same time
