Hi chaps, grabbed some after pics of my cousin's brand new Fiesta ST2. I mentioned when he ordered it that we'd get it all cleaned and sealed up. Paint was immaculate and the dealer was told not to prep the car or wash it. Very impressed with the condition it came in.
Some tar splatter and iron contamination but mostly just transport transfer. Those front pads don't half give off some serious dust!
Front glass sealed with CarPro Forte all others cleaned and sealed with Werkstat Prime
Carpro Dlux used on the plastics
Megs and CarPro pearl combo on the tyres
Paint cleansed with the rare Werkstat Prime, it removed so much dirt from the pores of the paint, the product continues to astound me in how much dirt it can remove even on "clean paint". My plan is to collect a couple more bottles in the hope it returns to sale in the UK as i've yet to use a cleanser that can come close, and I should add, it cleans deep whilst also laying down a base sealant layer. If you get a chance, pick some up.
Paint sealed with CarPro Reload 2015 edition. I use this over a wax as the dirt repelling propeties can't be ignored on new fangled sealants like C2V3 etc. I think anyone will agree it doesn't look half bad, the finish wasn't bang on wax vs Red but I was overly impressed again with the new Reload, hopefully pick a full bottle up next time I see Craig, i've gone through a bottle of Reload 14 in around 6 months.
I was also very very fortunate enough to be gifted an original bottle of Gtechniq C1 and couldn't wait to use it, so on the ST I decided to do a test and coat the bonnet in it. A future test will be done soon.
For you guys who don't know what this is, have a look here... http://www.cliosport.net/threads/up...etail-gtechniq-c1-frp-asw-content-ect.610797/
Anyway less of my waffle... I think it needs a splitter, badly.
