I have all my detailing stuff for a long time now but with the car unexpectinly Needing a Engine Rebuild And being off the road for 10 weeks I didnt have time todo it or saying that the £..So we put it in my Mates Unit who is a painter while it got rebuilt Anyway with him Sprayin Cars for some unknow reason my car got full of '' Overspray '' And i mean a hell of alot..(The pictures will show you what i mean)
Anyway i got a phone call tonight off my mate who is a Valeter/detailer/painter said while the weather was Decent and my car needed alot of hours working time he wanted to get cracking on it to get it ready for edition38..(plus i was Bitching ever night about it)
My paint work for a 2003 black car was a utter discrase in daylight the touch was unreal too...
Il let the pictures do the talking,We've only done 1 side of the car (Passenger Side) as that took 5hours todo...So tommorrow will entale 2000grit paper on all the massive scratches and Stone chips along with the touch up pen ready for it to be Compounded...
Before:
After the Usal Wash & Bar
Overspray and fucked Paint work.
Then we got Cracking with the Wet and Dry and Compounding....Result...Its like glass just the rest of the car todo now Pmsl..
New and Excisting Paint Work...lol...How it used to be...

wet sanding was the Final straw to get the really back scratchs out and major paint curls(stone chips) put its getting there just takes alot of time..
