My Shiney Monaclo Blue 172

[steve1052]

So with it being nice weather over the couple of days I decided to use all the detailing equipment I have just bought...recommended by Rich of course. New additions since my last picture post are the K-tec carbon fibre splitter and I have also painted my callipers gold. Side badges currently away at the Middo spray shop so should have them back in the next couple of days.

Process:
Washed using two bucket method and Sonax Shampoo
Dried using Poorboys waffle towel
Meguiars clay bar used on wing mirrors, front bumper and bonnet
Swirl Removal using Meguiars Scratch X
Autoglym Polish
Autoglam Gloss
Poorboy's Natty's Blue Wax

Plastics Treated using Autoglym Bumper Care
Tyres given a coat of Poorboy's Bold n Bright
Windows polished using Autoglym window polish

sweet mate!

calipers should be silver or black imo, but apart from that it looks great.

with some decent conditions and a good camera man monaco looks fantastic.

My old one.

Will be getting some good shots in a day or two when i get my badges back. One of my mates is a photographer so she is going to be in charge of the photoshoot. BLACK = looks like brake dust, SILVER = Blends into the wheels too much. Gold subtle, but noticeable imo of course!

was literally just looking at getting a wax for my Monaco! gonna give it the whole treatment for FCS, wash, clay, polish, seal and wax...

how did you apply/remove the Natty's Blue? easy to use?

 

[JR]

Nattys was the choice was for my monaco, thats what its wearing in the above photo.

Rated by some, but i think rich prefers p21's on monaco.

Apply a pannel at a time , foam applicator pad thin coat. and buff off with a plush microfibre towel.

Fairly easy to use. I got some meguiars applicator pads, makes sure they are a bit moist so they pick the wax up. Apply a panel at a time in an even coat. Make sure you do not leave it too long or it goes hard and is hard to buff out. I used a pillow case cover to buff mine out, soft cotton buffs it up nicely.
