Chris.Stewart Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Finally got round to looking through about 500 pics and making a thread!A few months ago Fro asked me to detail his starlet, so here's some pics and write up of what i did!This is what it looked like when it arrived at mine:First of all the car was thoroughly powerhosed then soaked in foam: (hyper wash and r222 mixed in to remove any existing protection)And rinsed:The usual wash process was carried out, then soaked in tardis to remove tar spots, wiped down, washed again, then rinsed and rolled into the garage for claying: (werkstat auto shampoo and 2bm for wash process, blackfire clay and lubricant for claying process)Once it was clayed, it was taken back outside for a final wash before the polishing stages, Polishing pics in no particular order: (mainly menz 203s with menz or lake country polishing pads, small pads used for sections, by da polisher)Bonnet:Roof:Headlights were brightened up!:50/50 on roof:Tailgate was brightened up a bit:Front bumper corrected:Looking good!Very glossy!Engine bay wiped down:Dusted down:After IPA wipedown and inspection:Finished photos: (after blackfire paint sealant and midnight sun wax applied, exhaust tip was polished autosol and sealed with blackfire too)Beading shots!Thanks for looking Mods - please move this to the best place if here is no good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
