Detailing The 172 Tomorrow!

[stu-172]

Going to do the iceberg silver 172 2moro as it's getting a wee bit untidy looking! I'm going to use these products in this order, unless anyone can advise anything else? Rich?

Wash with Zymol Shampoo
Dry with microfibre and QD spray
Clay with Victoria wax QD
3m Finnesse with Rotary
3m Machine Glaze Rotary
Menzerna Final Finish with Rotary
Zaino Z2
Zymol Destiny to top off

Any suggestions welcome!

Anyone?

You will need some AIO or an IP wipe down before the Zaino. I would get a few layers of Z2 on before waxing.

 

[stu-172]

Yep I have the IP to wipe down! Also got the ZFX stuff, so can put on 3 layers! :approve: Thanks Rich

Cool, I would leave it a day to set up then top. Though I am tempted to do, 3 layers of Z5 and then 3 of Z2 on mine.

Rich ur a Star! Car came up better than new! Put 2 coats of Z2 on on Sat and baked in the spray booth for 10mins! Then a coat of Zymol Titanium and back in to bake! As the lack of sunlight put an end to the leave in sun to cure! 60 degree bake FTW

loves it 'sticking it in a giant oven' great stuff

 

[stu-172]

Yep and the lights in it are great for showing up swirl marks! So much easier to polish them out in the booth!

i'll bet it is 'everyone should have a spray booth tbh'
id love one

At 20k I don't think everyone could afford 1! I use my bro's in his bodyshop! I'm gonna get the Misses's mum (pastry chef) to start baking cakes in it! :approve:

lol....good use of resources!

how did you get on with it? i took a trip to bangor with my cleanly waxed car and there was no1 about apart form from guy in a 52 plate cup with twin pipes out the back....not a clue who that is!

 

[stu-172]

I'll post a few pics up later on when I get a chance to wash the car again . Came up really well! We headed up the coast on sunday! Doesn't seem to be much life in Bangor lately!

 

[Rich]

I hope Zaino is bodyshop safe!

 

[stu-172]

Me too, otherwise I mite get a slap! Lol! He's used the booth since and it's all been fine! Just left the fans on for a good half hour after using!
