    Motorbike small clean up!

    [align=center][/align]

    Belongs to a friend who asked me to clean it up for him, was tidy enough to begin until he drove up behind me in the rain but got 2 stages of polishing, took about 7-8 hours to complete and didn't really get into the minor details just concentrated on the panels. Wouldn't call it a detail it was more of a clean up, still a fair few deep marks left

    Some befores:















    Took the front and rear mud guards off to give them a polish and quick tidy underneath, didn't go mad on the insides of them.











    Cleaned and ready for polishing







    Looks better in person



    Bike was taken outside then and cleaned down, fully clayed and some tar removed from certain areas, too cold to be taken pics of the wash process this time of year :surprised:

    Some more before of the paint







    Worst part, the tank on the left side



    Better, but far from perfect


    And random shots under the light





    Was fully cleaned down with IPA and 2 coats of wax applied

    Outside the following day for some afters:

    Very nice work, 7/8 hours at full pace to get it looking like that I'm guessing

    Nice easy pace Owen, if I have everything set up and have all the right products there for the job I can do a clay and seal now in 2 hours on a e39 size car
