So finally got round to going over the car with Auto Finesse Spirit. Got a few new products through aswell so tried them out also. It was a two day detail, and I was bloody glad when it was over.

Products used:

-R1NE
-Iron-X
-Tardis
-Menzerna Super Finish 106
-Menzerna Power Finish 203
-Hex-logic green
-Hex-logic black
-Auto Finesse Tripple
-Auto Finesse Spirit

Started just giving the car a general wash and then decontamination using Iron-X and Tardis, car wasn’t too bad to be honest. Dried the car then gave it another wash, been using R1NE for about a year or so now, its good stuff, highly recommended.

Then got the car into the garage and began the proper detailing stage. Started with a hex green along with Mezerna using Meguiars g220 DA. Gives a really good finish just using this and took out most of the hairline scratches.

Boot was probably the worst part of the car, don’t think its ever had polish on it!

Continued over the whole car like this bar the bonnet as that had already been completed, sealed with AF tough coat.

Then gave it a finish polish using the Hex black and Menzerna. Also tried Tripple on some panels, its my new favourite product, so easy to use.

Finally applied the Spirit wax on top. Really impressed with it and it spreads very well, unlike some other waxes that can be a bit dry. The tiny sample did the whole car in one coat.

Pictures dont do the car justice to be honest. The shine is great and i'm very pleased. Just a shame I can't afford the bloody stuff!
