Yet another, favourite colour so far however!!



Well after my thread in GC, I had a spare spot this weekend for a member's car to be detailed. The Needster AKA Rebecca was first to PM and so she drove down from Durmingtonhamshire this morning to arrive at mine (early ;)) for half nine.

Process similar to usual, snow foam, wash, clay, PC, wheels etc etc etc etc, however, Rebecca brought some new Dodo products that I had never worked with, namely Lime Prime Lite and Blue Velvet Wax; not keen on the LP, but the wax (hand applied) was superb, easy on and off (when you have a Mike Aids Biffy Clyro on hand ;)).

The car came up better than I had ever hoped for. The colour is just astounding, being my first RB. The decals with it being an R27 were a pain in the backside, but two 3M tape rolls later, we were laughing.

Anyway, I will let the photos do the talking :)

Many thanks to both Mike (bifcaids) and Rebecca (needster) for hours of amusement, and of course all the help given today.

Thanks for looking :)

Yeah, ive found you need to use the old uploader. If you use the new one it majorly reduces the quality

Good work sir, RB does come up a treat. When Riz detailed his old one, it looked wet under street lighting.

This might be a really silly question but how did you go about applying the Blue Velvet by hand? I wanted to try that the other week but didnt know how the hell I should do it :eek:
 
Literally scoop a small amount with your finger into your hands, rub it into your hands so it covers most of them. Then literally wipe your hands in flat and circular movements over the paint work fella.

If you type things into Google, then select videos there are quite a few!

And we have fail!!!! Work mate just asked why I wash cars for so long and said isn't it OK just to wash it with fairy washing up liquid and a dish cloth . . .

I know, that's why I lol'd in her face. She looked at pictures on Facebook of the other cars i.e. '8 and DB7 and she said, why would someone pay you that much to clean cars?

My retort was "It's called detailing, you wouldn't know about detail. Coffee anyone?"

LOL. n00b.

You'll have to start wearing short sleeve shirts Jammy, let her see the forearms, then she'll know what folks are paying for. FLOL.

Ps. Thank your Mam and Dad for being so nice too :D
 
Lol @ M+D.

Are you OK? Do you want a chair? Do you want some food/drink? Do you want a magazine? It gets quite boring, you know?
 
Not when the new CEO of the company is coming round to meet the team!! SRS scrubbing this morning!!!
