Honda Type R - Deluxe Exterior Detail

A beautiful day greeted us on Sat morning after quite a bit of rain the last week. Our customer arrived bright and early and we got cracking on a cracking car. You wont see too many of these on our Roads.

Steve and I got down to washing and claying the car outside in the morning sun.





At one stage while cleaning the engine I caught sight of the swirls on the Bonnet while it was propped up. So took the chance to take some before snaps


Wheels all nice and clean thanks to the ever popular Daytona Speed Wheel Brush and All Purpose Cleaner from Meguiars. 



We realised the Bonnet had a distinct half that was a different sort of white to the rest of the bonnet. We 1st thought it was a Blend respray then thought it was a sticker that may have caused the mark. But we none the less took the car in and gave the Bonnet a Polish to see if we could sort it out. afterwards we rolled her back out and popped the bonnet to take a look. These pics show the before and after on the bonnet.


The mark that was there was gone and the bonnet looking good again. we tackled the rest of the car in the same manner we did the Bonnet. Menzerna SIP and Meguiars M205 Final Finish were the order of the day. I then added the Werkstat Acrylic Prep Sealant which works amazingly on white cars. Then we added the AutoGlym Gloss protection for the LSP (last stage product). All in all the car came out really nicely and the customer was well pleased with the end result. 
here are some more pics to tell the rest of the story.

 This car produces such a lovely deep exhaust note. And a realy nice tailpipe to go with it.

Then we took her out into the sunshine and took a few more pics
