I have never posted pics nor used photobucket, so forgive any bumbling(admin guys be warned)

My dad bought a new corsa, well sorta new, it had been a leasecar previous to him buying it, but was in all round good nick, so I offeed some protection for the new purchase. It arrived quite clean already.


The wheels were even nice and clean.


Now this was a bit of a rush, my dad allocated 3 hours to sort his car out, so, like no pics of any stages. I washed wheels first with Sonax extreme(love this stuff), then washed body with Sonax wash, clayed the entire car, which was pretty contaminant free, with megs fine clay, dryed with my new jumbo drying towel, thanks Dave, and progresses to run over the body with Menz 106FF on a black finishing pad, just to btring up a shine, re-washed and LSP of choice was Collinite 476 (I think that is the no.) This was for a durable protection, as my dad is not big on washing or waxing, so I will redo project in 6 months time again.

Some afters




I am hoping that with practice, my detailing work as well as my write ups and pics will improve dramatically

Thanks for looking
