PINK TO RED astra, refreshment detail

Post by pride & performance »

Here is an Astra that had a refreshment detail!

it came to me very pink with oxidised paint and faded bumpers not to mention a very very dirty interior,

BEFORE

as you can see i had my work cut out,

i started by a pre wash with auto glym power max 2
then foamed with autosmart duo foam
washed with megs wash mit and duragloss 901 shampoo.

Image
Image

once all washed and dried i clayed the car with chemical guys pro clay,

the bonnet and front wings were surprisingly clean

Image

but the lowers were a different story

Image

once the whole car was clayed i then washed the car again and dried,

then it was time for the machine polish, for this job i was using an all in one cleaner polish wax, i used dodo need for speed for this process,

some 50/50's of how the need for speed performed,

please note this was not a correction job it was a valet with clay and all in one machine polish

Image

once i had finished the polishing work i dressed the bumpers and other trim parts with autoglym bumper care, cleaned the windows with auto glym fast glass and slicked the tyres with auto glym rubber cleaner.

once the exterior was taken car of i tackled the interior,

this was fully wet vac'd with valet pro interior cleaner and the plastics cleaned with auto glym clean all and again fast glass for the windows,

here the drivers seat has been cleaned and the passenger seat has not

Image
Image


this was the passenger seat before

Image

and after

and the compleated car
