Thumbs up A day Valeting at Motorsport Developments

Stu gave us a ring and asked for his new toy to be cleaned, so this morning we turned up at MSD to find what was a really nice M5 and wasnt that bad to start off with, the leather was a little dirty and it stank of cigarettes, the whole car was covered in road tar aswell.

set off to work on it firstly going round the car with traffic film remover under the bonnet (which was particularly dirty and had the usual bmw glue runs ) then the wheels and arches, ander the skirts, and in all door edges, hinges, and boot edge.



No wheel acid was used on the wheels due to the "shadow chrome" paint finish on them.


We then washed the car using diamondbrite car shampoo with a lambswool mitt, and then chamois leathered the car with two leathers, one for bodywork, one for door edges and wheels.



i then used tar and glue remover under the bonnet to remove the gunk and grime that had collected under there.

i had to clay the rear bumper as there were a lot of deposits of tar there, everything came off and the glass type finish was achieved



all the leather was cleaned with diamondbrite upholstery cleaner, and the interior was detailed, sorry for the lack and the quality of the pictures, we had a lot to do in a small time plus my phone battery was dying

the end result:




We also did kenny's Focus ST:





and then my battery died

had a good time there, nice lads, cheers for the brews stu!

and to the owner of this:



this is a true credit to you mate, love it
