Well I first must say im very forutnate to have a client like this, last week I worked on his new Bentley and this is his latest toy in his ever changing collection. He's been waiting 2 years for this car and eventually it arrived last week. My first impressions of this car was WOW, it is a rocket ship, I have never seen anything quite like this. This car has put Lamborghini back in pole position, I have loved the 458 since its arrival but when we parked this next to the Ferrari it looked like a toy. When the car arrived i gave it a quick inspection and i must say the guys at Lambo did a great job. I was sure i would find sanding marks, pigtails, swirls.....There was some minor swirls and some holograms but the finish was the best ive seen for a exotic. Anyway enjoy!

Onto the wheels the car was already clean but i wanted to give it the once over anyway. Sonax Full Effect was used on the wheels and Megs APC+ on the tires and wheel wells. A variety of brushes were used

After the wheels were cleaned, I moved onto the paint. I first sprayed P21 Auto Wash to help break down any wax or glaze which was on the car. I then foamed the car with a mixture Dawn, CG Citrus Wash and Auto Wash
