Default Red Audi A4 detail...

Had a text off a mate last week to see if I was up for getting the paint upto scratch on his newly purchased daily...
5-6 years old, looks pretty straight but on close up needs alittle work...

The pic I was sent last week...

No other before pics sorry...

So this morning it was washed off, clay mitted...
Why he dried it off I did a couple of small dents which I pointed out lol

Hit it all over with finnese on a rotary...
Then hit it with my newly purchased Das21e, alittle black hole did the trick...
After that I went over with Black Fire all finish paint protection sealer on another pad...
Final coat was done by hand with some Autoglym HD wax...
Glass was done with Autoglym
Due to the temperature today I ended up wiping it over with Clb quick detailer to tidy up and excess water where it kept smearing...
Tires were done with Poor boys tire dressing

Looks really good that, how do you rate the autoglym wax? I've used a lot of autoglym products and I'm a fan but the wax is something I've yet to try.

I think its good gear. I use it all the time. The paint feels really smooth when its been waxed.
