Car Detailing | Polishing Booth

The extent of the tar splatter was quite shocking as the owners road had recently been resurfaced. Here is a bit of a run down of the process I used:

• The wheels were treated with a special product I have and cleaned with a wheel brush.
• It was then snow foamed and power washed off.
• The tar was then treated with a product designed for this however great care needs to be taken as it strips all protection from the paintwork.
• The car washed then two bucket method and then towel dried.
• The paintwork was then treated to a wax cleaner rather than claying as the owner had previously clayed it so there weren’t many bonded contaminents.
• It was then polished with SRP, and a few areas were polished with Menzerna to sort out a couple of paint defects, before the whole car being waxed with Colonite 915 hard wax.
• The whole interior was hoovered and then washed down with Meguiars APC and it removed the marks from the seats and brought the dash up a treat.

This was the tar as a result of the road being resurfaced:

After the tar had been completely removed:

Despite the tar, the car was well cared for…not that this meant it received any lesser attention!:

6 hours later and job done!
