De-swirled the SVR

After buying the car a couple of months ago, I noticed on the first wash just how swirled the paintwork was (one year old car). Finally had a day to myself and the weather was almost perfect so decided to sort it out!

Forgot to take any 'before' pictures, but it was typical light swirling over most panels, especially the bonnet.

Gave the car a snow foam, rinse, wash, clay, machine polish and then a wax. I really need to look into paint sealants - I'm pretty new to this, but this will do for a couple of months.

Suffice to say though the car looks great now - I even gave the tail pipes a quick buff, although a proper polish with the Dremel would bring them up better!

A few pics of the final result.

I bought the G220 last year. Amazon doesn't stock it anymore, but it was this one.

Take a look at the Das 6, seems to be the most popular on detailing world too

As for sealants, the next time I get a new car I think I will go with Gyeon ceramic sealant. Gtechniq gets lots of great reviews too but in reality is no different. I believe Gyeon do a kit you can use yourself and a professional version for detailers only. I've used Gyeon ceramic wheel sealant and have been very impressed so far 2010 RRS 3.0 TDV6 - Bali Blue / Ivory Leather / Extended Leather / TV / Rear Entertainment / Privacy Glass / Timed Climate
