Default Corsa Detail - Massive turnaround required.....

Well this was the biggest task i've faced yet.... a young Photographer friend of ours wants to sell her car so asked if i'd do my best with it but warned me it was looking a bit sorry for itself...

SHE WAS NOT KIDDING!

The car had a scrape, dent, scratch or some sort of blemish on just about every single panel so it was going to be interesting.

I didn't get any pics of the Interior bit it was an absolute state, I filled 2 carrier bags with stuff i found in the car not to mention Sim cards, Pens, chargers, CD's, MOT's, Service history, Charcoal, Money, Cigarette butts, dog hair like you wouldn't believe!

Anyway, here are some pics of what was facing me:












So first up was to give it a good snow foam, and go round all the badges, plastic trim edges, vents and grills with some G101 and a brush






Car was then rinsed off, then Washed using the 2BM with Zymol Auto-wash.




It was then clayed and De-tarred using Tardis - here's just a few more pics of what sort of damage was now on show after it was washed.
