Aston Martin Vantage V8
Overview: Superb condition Vantage with the owner wanting the car detailing with the emphasis on ‘lifting’ the slightly dulled paintwork. We also decided to adopt a ‘belt and braces’ protection process using the superb Wolfs Bodywrap Sealant as a base with Swissvax Best of Show Wax as the tried and tested finishing product.
Exterior: Pro-detail
Interior: Flex
Protection: Swissvax Best of Show Wax + Wolfs Bodywrap Sealant

Cleansing process: Car snowfoamed with VP Orange Pre-wash, rinsed and then hand-washed. Paintwork de-tarred with VP Citrus Tar Remover then clayed with Sonus Ultra-fine Clay (lubricated with VP Bling). Paintwork then wiped down with Isopropyl Alcohol, rinsed with water and re-dried. Wheels cleaned with AS Smartwheels (face) and VP Bilberry (inners). Wheels then treated with Wolfs Chemicals De-contaminant and then de-tarred. Exhaust tips de-tarred and then cleaned with Duragloss Metal Polish and superfine steel wool.
Enhancement: Dodo Lime Prime applied as a single stage refinishing process. Dual Action (DA) random orbit polisher + Sonus Enhance pads used on bumpers and small complex areas. Flex controlled double orbit polisher + Lake Country CCS pads used on main panels. Total polishing time 1.25 hours.
