Default Discovery3 MASSIVE Detail :-)

Thanks to Neil Dudman for letting me loose on his Disco i thought i'd post up the write-up for anyone that's interested, and Neil thought you'd like to see a bit more info and pics here:

2 Day Discovery 3 Detail...

The Discovery was dropped off to me at 8am so i got cracking straight away.

This is how it was looking, not too dirty (as it is used for proper off roading) so that was good, just a bit of general dirt and road grime really:






1st step was to give it a good soaking in snow foam




Next up i went round the whole Car with some G101 and a detailing brush, going round badges, vents and grills.



I rinsed the whole thing off with the pressure washer


Next stage was to clean the wheels, using Very Cherry (Non acid) and a few different brushes, luckily these were fairly easy to clean:




Wheels were then rinsed off


The whole thing was then hand washed using some Zymol Auto-wash and my AB detailing buckets with grit guards.



After this i rinsed it down and started to Clay the whole thing using CYC Blue clay, and some Autosmart Re-Glaze as clay lube.

Once this was complete i re snow foamed the whole car and then rinesed off, before spraying Meguiars Last Touch all over and drying off with a couple of large blue fluffy towels.

I then went round the whole car checking out the condition to find a fair few scratches (from off roading mainly)






These were all on the top / corner of the bonnet edges and seem to be from the local car wash where they had to lean over to reach the middle of the bonnet
