Hi all! I recently carried out another new car protection detail, this time on a Daytona Grey Audi TT Black Edition 'Amplified', which gives it the same black highlights, wheels and spoiler as the TTRS! This one was carried out at Tetbury Audi.
A few of the car
The usual lines left from wrap removal
Wheels attended to first
Pre-wash used was AF Citrus to remove as much dirt before touching
Which left this
AMBubbles used to leave a clean base
Cleaned and ready for the necessary decontamination stage
IronX dissolved the iron filings and brake dust embedded in the paintwork, something not usually done by valeters and will leave the surface rough and reduce the longevity of any paint protection.
Purple runs show the dissolving of embedded iron!
After a second hit of IronX the contamination was massively reduced -
Tar contamination was non-existent and the paint was now very smooth apart from a few small places, but glass needed claying to remove a slight film before G1 application.
Rolled inside for drying off with various towels and compressed air to clear door shuts and trapped water.
First up was the engine bay being dressed, sprayed and left to soak while
Wheels were coated with GTechniq C2v3
The paintwork was prepped with Auto Finesse Tripple to be followed with Tough Coat.
The interior was given a wipe down and hoover with the new mats added in
Exterior trims were protected with Auto Finesse Revive
Protected on the right / unprotected on the left
Tyres protected
GTechniq G1 applied to glass
New plates protected! The new owner is a fellow detailing product dealer on Detailing World..!
Paintwork protected with Auto Finesse Tough Coat
Looking good after buffing
The engine bay given a final wipe over to leave a clean gloss to plastics
And all finished! The car was then moved into the handover bay ready for an evening collection.
Awesome looking car and definitely my favourite Audi colour!
If you made it this far, thanks for reading! Comments appreciated as always.
