Raceglaze 55

Messages

A mate of mine who is into the whole detailing thing raceglazed the car for me on sunday and also touched up the engine bay. I like him to have a bash at the car now and again as he makes it all look so easy and you can learn alot form these detailing dudes.. :) Lifted his thread from detailing world.


Today saw a detail on a CTR, the owner contacted me for a protection detail but he also wanted the engine bay spruced up too i had done the engine bay previously, so it was nice to get the chance on the paintwork. He got to mine at 10am, so i started cracking....Andy was on Tea duty and F1 reports, we had more cups of tea than F1 instances. lol

Amazing to think this motor has done 100k!!

The process:

  • Usual Wash Process, including Wheels, Paintwork, and Door Shuts
  • Paintwork Clayed using Auto Balm Clay, and Last touch Clay Lube
  • Paintwork polished with Auto Glyms SRP
  • 1x Coat of Raceglaze '55' signature wax
  • Wheels glossed with Megs high endurance gel
  • The Exhaust, rubbers, Glass etc dressed
  • The engine done with Megs APC, Megs VRC and last touch


The befores:

So on with the afters, had to dodge a bit of rain and rushing inside to see the start of the F1, then it was all finished and looked nice and glossy :)

Very good, nice choice of Air intake squire. Paint them calipers red & it will look even more sweet! :cool:
