This detail started on last Thursday. I received a "new" company car: Opel (vauxhall) Astra of 2004. Here are some shots of last Thursday when I got home after work.


Close up of the paint...

Reflection, if you can call it like that.

Interior...

So Thursday evening, I decided to tackle the interior. Most stuff I used is Meguiars.
My white towel after cleaning the floor mats...

Even coat applicator (only look at the right one!) after cleaning the interior with vinyl cleaner / conditioner

After a few hours of work, here are the afters of the interior.

Today I finally found a gap to finish the works on the Corsa.
After a standard wash, I noticed it was very difficult to dry the car. Ofcourse, no wax layers or whatsoever on this "new" 2004 Opel (Vauxhall) Corsa (which is my "new" company car) - and it was full of contaminents.

After claying, I decided to make a single pass with #80 on the PC (equivalent of a PC actually). I didn't want to remove defects, just wanted it sharp looking so I was not ashamed to drive it around.
All taped up and ready for #80.

Different photographs after wiping off the #80 and also two close encounters.




After 2 hours of #80 it was time to apply a coat of Gold Class Liquid wax (Meguiars). Used the PC equivalent again.

Finally, after 5 hours of work it was time to roll the car out in between rain showers to get some after shots.
