  • Golf MKIV

    hey guys..

    friday was a day off and i decided to work a little in my car! since i bought this car about a 2 months ago, after i totalled my WRX jpn spec

    lets talk about of the car: many swirls,acid rain and a little scratchs.

    products used:
    2 bucket method without grit guards(don't have in brazil)
    washmitt
    hyperwash
    super suede drying cloth
    clay + QD
    #83 + cuting pad
    NXT 2.0 by hand
    tomorrow i will use UQD


    first i snow foam with my karcher foam gun + HP



    clayed the car with QD




    dry off, put the car inside to see the defects in the paint

    the roof, lots of acid rain and swirls


    the hood,acid rain and swirls


    basic the entire car was acid rain and swirls.

    note: in my city don't have any meguiars dealer and no one make this "little job"..only the basic, wash and wax...and wax off poor quality, so im the only to do this job here!

    taped the car (don't have 3m blue tape )


    corrected:

    hood


    right fender


    right door


    roof


    well! so i corrected everything that i can, minor scratch appear but i don't have scratch-x , tomorrow i expected that arrive here!

    so after all this i aplly a coat of NXT 2.0 by hand , wipe off after 30mins. and let the car sleep, after 12hrs (yes, im a car crazy ) i apply a 2nd coat of NXT, after 1 hour i wipe off and finish my 3 days service

    hood


    roof and my mom saying "hi mol"


    right door


    a little of dirt in top bottom, later i will remove this.

    note 2: in brazil don't have many products like USA and europe. so i pay too much for a product there is cheaper in USA.
    i tried do the best, this is the 3rd car that i make.

    a hope the MOL enjoy my detailing, my body is tired,my fingers is gone and im very happy after 3 days of work. ( not entire 3 days)

    see ya

          Trabalho excelente!

          Car looks good and came out very nice for the limited tools available. Keep at it and you'll refine your technique to reach even greater heights.

            nice work, the car looks great, NXT Tech Wax 2.0 looks great on that color.

                    did you find that the clear coat accepted the 83 real well?? I have a silver MKIV and will be giving it a good detail here soon.

                        I will try and have a good write up here soon about it...busy with the start of school, and a few side jobs I have lined up, and the wife nagging me about getting to her new car, 09 Ford Fusion Sport Blue

                            Very nice job. Car looks great.
                            If its fast, loud, and runs on a flammable liquid...count me in.

                              Nice work Lucas. My son has the same car...in metalic gray. I keep telling him to bring it over so I can do the "works" on it with my PC. But he's a busy young man. I don't think he's washed his car in a couple months.
                              Black......the ONLY color!
