Excuse the lack of pictures on this writeup, had some memory card trouble and could only recover some of the pictures. Customer was looking to spruce up his 2001 A4 in order to sell it. This car had seen improper washing its whole life so it had some very deep imperfections that would have needed wet sanding, which in the case was not an option due to budget.

So to sum it up the following was done:
-Wash
-Clay
-2 Step Polish Combo (Menz SIP via orange and yellow pads, followed by 85rd on green)
-Paint was waxed with Lusso Oro
-Windows were sealed
-Cowl/Plastics and Tires were dressed


Wheels


Sonax Applied

Sonax Rinsed Off

Paint wasn't too visibly dirty

Presoak with Citrus Shampoo

After vehicle was washed, it was rinsed before being taken in to be dried and clayed


Claying paintwork and exterior glass

Medium Clay bar picked up a good amount of contamination off the paint

Under Halogens and LED lights, swirl marks were very visable



First step of polishing was SIP with an Orange pad

50/50 shots of polished area



Had to switch to yellow pad to get some of the deeper defects out


Another 50/50 of the hood


50/50 of mirror

B pillars were polished in hopes of bringing some gloss back to them as well as getting some of the many scratches out

After:


Tailights were polished with PCXP, White Pad and Menz 106
