Earlier this week I took my Trophy to Nick at Detail My Car in Newbury (www.DetailMyCar.co.uk).
It went in with the paint looking quite dull, significant tree sap build-up and a few (recent) bird bombs, a heavily stone-chipped bonnet with some further chips at various places on the bodywork, white polish marks on nearly all black exterior trim from not masking up properly (during a previous owner's tenure), and hazy headlights - it deserved some TLC.
Having been an authorised Ceramishield agent for some time Nick has also recently become an official CarPro authorised/approved detailer so I opted for a full enhacement detail finished up with CQuartz Finest.
Apologies for all the pictures...
Here's the car as it started:
A few showing the tree sap and bird bombs:
Residue on the mirror surround:
Before polishing:
After the first stage of polishing:
And some after shots following two coats of Finest & Reload:
I'm made up with the finish, it's so much better than I'd hoped, and Reload is such a great product to work with too, it's a shame the pictures don't do it justice.
If anyone is in the market for getting their car detailed I'd thoroughly recommend Nick at Detail My Car in Newbury, who in the last few weeks has also detailed a Maserati GranTurismo and Lamborghini Murcielago LP-670 SV to name a few. Check out his website or find him on Facebook for more details (ho ho).
Thanks for looking.
