Yes... ANOTHER ONE! RenaultSport Clio 182 in Black Gold! Swissvax Shield!



  Megane R26
I swear I've done one of these Clio's before!! :lol::lol:


This particular example travelled over from Hinckley near Leicester to me, for a Light Correction detail to eliminate any swirling and reduce and deeper scratches present, in what was supposed to be a day, but turned into a 16 hour session!!


Some befores:

IronX working its magic on the wheels, safely remove the pitted brake dust:

After safely cleansing with IronX and Tardis, the clay didn't have much work left to do, as usual just small traces of tree sap:

After drying safely, the car was assessed for defects, paint thicnkess and various polishing combinations were tested to identify the optimal combination to allow us to remove the majority of the defects and also finish down perfectly, ensuring the car leaves hologram free. Most of the work was completed with Megs 101 via Optimum MF Cutting Discs, then refined with Scholl S20 via Rupes BigFoot and Black Menzerna Finishing Pad, to remove the very light micromarring from the MF discs.


Some correction shots - please note some deeper defects remained as this was a light correction detail, but the car was massively improved:

The RenaultSport badge had been changed (badly) by the previous owner, so this was to be removed and the area cleaned up in preparation for the new badge:
