Corsa Combo Detail
 
Busy day today - two cars to detail starting 8am this morning.

Second one being this very faded and very very swirly Vauxhall Corsa Combo Van..

The paint was extremely poor, very marred and extremely flat...

The alloys were chrome, and only 9 months old but very dirty!

Usual steps taken and menzerna 200 compound working up to 800 polish..

Actually went through 5 brand new pads due to the paint being cut clogging the pads...

Nice half and half of the roof showing how bad the paint was:

And some usual reflection shots after a good few thin layers of wax for protection:

The difference on that roof panel is massive, i guess that van has spent its whole life parked outside in the sun...

Great work mate :ok:

Great work. Sometimes the worse it is the more satisfying it is at the end.
