    New Audi wearing Modesta

    New client who wanted me to look at his new Audi because he said it didn’t look right? When the car arrived we could see the dealership outside company had polished it with something a little aggressive as it was loaded with tick marks from a wool pad. I’m assuming they tried to chase after a few water spots and sap stains? We started by cleaning and decontamination of the wheels and tires using Griot’s iron and fallout remover along with Griot’s rubber cleaner. We then foamed the car with both foaming surface prep wash and the lower sections with Griot’s iron and fallout remover. Both with the Griot’s foam cannon. Then a traditional bucket wash with Griot’s concentrated wash. Using a Griot’s surface mit and speed shine the car was further decontaminated. We used Griot’s fast correction cream on a microfiber pad to do the cutting step using the G15 at speed 4. After cutting the top surfaces which had the defects, we heated them with the IR lamp to be sure the defects wouldn’t return. Refining was done with Griot’s perfecting cream on a yellow perfecting pad. Finished with Modesta Primer on a Modesta polishing pad. Paint and wheels with Modesta BC08, trim with Modesta trim coating. Glass with Dr. Beasley products. Tires with Griots long lasting dressing. Interior vacuumed and wiped down with Griot’s interior detailer. Thank you for looking!

    Nice Job and save... customer must be thrilled. Did you happen to get mil readings of the paint? Curious as to what that Audi came in with. The TT I just did was consistently on the high side.

    This is a splendid job done as well as an excellent example of how new cars can still benefit from a PROFESSIONAL detailer.

    I’m glad your client was able to discern that something didn’t look right to begin with.

    You were his solution. Again outstanding work!
