Got my mates diesel ZS in for a paint correction for 2 days, He had a short time scale so i told him i would get as much done as humanly possible in the time frame.

No pics of wash process, but car got:
wheels decontaminated
snow foam
rinse
snow foam + agitation to doorshut's and nooks cranny's etc
rinsed
2X bucket wash
clay
snowfoam
rinse
Dry

This is the mess i was left with:






Start of the 50/50 process:





End article:







Ideally i would have liked the car for another day as the paintwork was horrid, but it was unfeasible upset
The car got cut with a selection of chemical guys compounds and hexlogic pads, polished with orchard perfection, glazed and then waxed with dodojuice supernatural hybrid.

His owns a 700bhp escos and a wet set up 500bhp escos race car. As can be seen in the back grounds is an escos race car and a sierra thundersaloon car (both spares for other cars)
This was also at the garage that day, his mates ex touring car sierra rs500 (the most original example left) a bit about the car:

Got both the escos and this to detail before the race season happy This RS500 will also be at the Auto sports show in birmingham

Could be seen as controversial but, in my opinion, Cossie rims belong on a Cossie thumbs
