Car Detailing | Polishing Booth

This is my own pride and joy…

The car was in good condition to start with but I allowed 6 hours for the Protection Detail which does not involve any machine polishing but a full day of hand cleaning and polishing.

It Was Snow Foamed and the product allowed to dwell on the car…

Then powerwashed off…

Then taken inside and towel dried with a Micro Fibre towel polished and waxed. The interior was vaccumed and wiped down with Meguiars APC and all the glass cleaned with Autoglym Glass Cleaner…

Job done!

Concentrated on the paintwork as it had swirls and marring which spoiled the total finish of the car.

As usual the wheels were cleaned, then the car was Snow Foamed and rinsed off with the power washer.  It was then taken inside so I could dry it off and inspect.  It was clay barred but that did not take off too much contaminants so the paint was pretty clean, just not very shiny.

There was also a dull patch on one of the corners of the rear bumper that would not polish out by hand so out came the machine polisher and the problem was solved.

After…

The following are pictures of a friend’s wife’s Subaru.  There was a lot of tar on the wheels and lower panels which needed quite of bit of work to remove.  From start to finish the job took six hours.

In summary the car was Snow foamed, washed using the two bucket method, towel dried, Tardis applied to lower panels, Clayed, two coats of Autoglym SRP, Colonite wax 915 to finish. The interior was fully vacced, the front mats treated with Meguiars APC, and the dash the same.  The glass was Autoglym glass cleaner.
