    Training weekend - black Audi A4 (B8)

    We started New Year at Auto Spa Detailing Enthusiasts Club from a two-day detailing session with an Audi A4 (B8) in the main role

    This time we worked together with Colin and the owner of the car. During the work we showed and explained in detail to the owner all the steps, various techniques, tricks, etc. This was the first detailing adventure for Kamil.

    This weekend started a new activity in the Auto Spa Detailing Enthusiasts Club - "training" days. In short this has to work like this: you take your car and you appear at Auto Spa Detailing Enthusiasts Club (by appointment of course). I and Colin (or just me or just Colin) will work together with you sharing around our humble experience. We answer every question and if we do not know the answer then together we will try to find it by searching the Internet (in several languages) or experimentally

    We used the following products and tools:

    Washing and decontamination:

    4nano Rim Cleaner+ for rims
    Shiny Garage Perfect Active Foam as a pre-wash (about 200ml to 700ml water in foam lance)
    Shiny Garage Red Devil HD Nano (1:2) for nooks and crannies
    CG Strong Wash (Bug Bugger) (shampoo, 150ml to 15l of water)
    CarPro IronX (distributed all over the car with a sponge)
    Prickbort MAC124 tar&glue remover (distributed all over the car with a sponge)
    3M blue clay bar (aggressive)
    Dodo Juice Born Slippy Concentrate (1:10 as clay lube)
    4nano Glass Shine (1:90) for windows
    Karcher K5.700
    Blaster SideKick i Air Force (drying aids)

    Paint correction:

    Rupes LHR15 with "washer mod" + Meguiar's DA Microfiber Cutting pads + Rupes Zephir
    Flex 3401 + Lake Country Purple wool pads + Menzerna FG400
    Flex 3401 + CG HexLogic blue pads + PolishAngel Escalate Lotoin
    Chemical Guys Metal Shine Extreme Polish & Protection
    Zaino Z12 Clear-View Glass Polish
    IPA, CarPro Eraser, 4nano Final Wipe

    Protection:

    PolishAngel Master Sealant (two layers) (paint, headlights, rear lights)
    Gtechniq G5 (front and rear window), Gtechniq C2v3 (side windows)
    Finish Kare 1000p (two layers) (rims and exhaust)
    Shiny Garage Back2Black (tires)
    Shiny Garage Jet-Black (trims)

    I invite you to view photos and video.

    Before washing:

    Thanks to everyone.

    Mike, my dream is to take part in your training days. Unfortunately I do not have the possibility to come to the U.S. in near future
