Next step was for me to wash the car...for this I used Duragloss 902.

I was recommended this product a good while back by Am, but never got round to buying it...opting instead for Zaino Z7 I think its called...I was very impressed with the Z7, and am equally impressed with Megs NXT wash which I can buy from the local Halfords. I thought it was time to try something different so went and ordered some Duragloss. Im SOO glad I did!! (Ill be reviewing all products later as well as links to each of the products)



Washed












The car was then clayed using Megs clay bar. There was very little in terms of contaminates on the paintwork so I didnt take a photo of the clay bar as it was still practically clean!

Some of you may realise the pictures are in a bit of a weird order...some are outside the garage and some are inside...the order I actually did the work in was washed the car outside, then took the car inside and then done the front and rear brakes...while the wheels were off I did the detailing on them.

Next up was to use the G-techniq P1 polish to get rid of some surface marks and get the paint ready for some G-techniq C1! Before the polish was applied, I wiped the panel down with an IPA and then got to work with my G220 and a polishing pad.
