Hello guys .Greetings from Cyprus ..
So into detail ..One of my ex colleague phoned me and ask me that his car is very dull and has some dry sand in the clear and after many washes the sand wont go away .I agree to do my best .. He warned me that he didnt wash the car for 5 months

So the car on arrival

You can see also the swirls hiding under the dirty panels at early sun . 6:30 at the morning

i thought that will this will be as easy case because of the size of the car .. After washing the car and spray all the car with iron x i inspect the vehicle

If you look carefully you can see the dry sand ,industrial polution ..My friend now work in a sand mine so the car was parked outside .. I try to get rid of the sand with Artdeshine clay cloth .. Was brilliant (sorry no pics )

So i get the chance to try my new toy .Rupes 21 . The car was full of oxidation so i put a microfibre pad and m101 ( paint readings was from 130-160)

A few 50-50
