Detailing


I hadn't done a good detail for a while, and boy did the GTI need it. The horizontal surfaces, especially, had a nasty, brown contaminant (probably just dirt) that fouled my clay bar. This was the worst I've ever seen on any of my cars.

After the clay, I gave it a single coat of Zaino polish. At that point, I was two and a half hours in, so future coats will have to wait for subsequent washes. My process:

  • Pre soak with bug and tar remover and wheel cleaner (1Z).
  • Wash with Dawn 
  • Dry 
  • Clay Bar (Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Bar Kit)
  • Wash with Dawn
  • Dry
  • Zaino polish (Z2 with ZFX accelerator)
