Blue Mk3 Seat Ibiza Cupra 2002
-----

It was November 2008 since I last detailed Liams car (http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=194346) and when Liam wanted another detail to get his car back to its past glory I was more than happy to help him out. Liam also has a real passion for detailing and he done a superb job in keeping the car is lovely and clean since 2008. Under the spot lights although there were swirls and some RDS there was still nice amount of clarity and depth to the paint work. This gave me a superb base to work on!

Liam kindly prepped the car for me by giving the car a good foam wash and clay before I arrived. This enabled me to fully concentrate on the paint work to remove the defects. Rarely do I get the opportunity to work on ready cleaned car, wicked.

The ultimate aim of this detailing session was to protect the car during the winter months. We both decided that we would go synthetic all the way and stay with sealants.

Massive thanks to Liam for letting me detail his car. Really enjoyable day as it always a pleasure chatting with Liam about all things detailing, car tuning and football!
