Team GTR - Leon Cupra R

[D.K]

The dirt that the clay lifted looked a lot like brick dust, probably from the house thats being done up next to yours

There was also a hell of a lot of tar spots all over the car

End Results

Products used
Autobrite Magifoam Snow Faom
Megs Gold class shampoo
AutoGlym Tar and Sap remover
Sonus Green clay
AutoGlym SRP, applied with a DA
Workstat Jett seleant.
Megs Endurance tire gloss

We managed to add a lot more depth and shine to the paint and even get rid of some of the lighter scratches, there's a few areas that need a bit more attention but it's a step in the right direction.

Looking good dude, once you get the hand of detailing its so easy i think

Really easy mate, I simply drive down to Darren's and let him at it

 

[EL]

Hopefully those bloody houses next to mine finish soon, getting on my nerves now with all the dirt they are producing.

Pics look ace mate, thanks for those. Car really shines now, parked up last night at the train station and when looking back it just gleamed

Looks really good for the detail up mate. Top work by Daz as usual

Really coming on now with the exterior compared to a few months back even, good progress bud.

Cheers mate. I even ordered my cleaning gear today so time to get cracking. It's coming along nicely now. Can't wait for the shows

Looking very good mate!!

Only thing I regret when buying my LCR was not buying Platinum Grey!

Cheers mate. All colours can look fab. Several gems about all showing how each colour suits the LCR. I just don't like to admit I like the silver ones

 

[DdraigR]

Lol.

Mines silver, in desperate need of some attention with the wax and polish after the winter though. Thing is I live in a third floor flat so it's a bit of a ******* to give it a good wash!

The Werkstat stuff is great. I used to use it all the time.

Where I lived before made it a pig to do mine also. Sure you will get to it. D.K used several different products on mine and together they complimented each other nicely for a great end result

Use to? You really are becoming a track slag

 

[drka-drka]

Haha no I just use something else now.

Clean race cars are faster ;-)

Looks great mate.

You may find those scratches come back as SRP is more of a filler than correction compound.

Oh really, DOH I have been losing power because the cars so filthy. Need to get my ass in gear

Thanks mate. Cars still going to the painters to get sorted but still a nice treat from Darren. Think he just got annoyed of seeing such a dirty car on his driveway every weekend lol

Exactly what I thought, need a cutting compound to 'remove' the scratches. I like sonus stuff but that's me.

I'm eyeing up Sonus clay bars with a big bulk detailing gear purchase soon. DK uses them so can't be bad

 

[james.l]

The ultra fine is good for only light bonded contaminants.

I'm doing an order soon too

 

[matylad]

El, love the car!! If you don't mind me asking where did you get the rear lights from??

Cheers,
Matt.

Never knew you were into the detailing side of things. Thanks for the info as well. I am a newbie to this stuff

Cheers buddy. The lights are a eBay special. They pop up from time to time. Before I saw these I was going to either spray mine or get the lamin-x tint film

This is what DK suggested for mine as its not too bad.

El, you've gotta keep her looked after like this now with the cleaning side. She looks a different car. No more £5 washes down the Poles' unit ay..
