So thats it then ive pretty much done all the big jobs bar the engine so it was detailing time ready for the mot.
Ive not let the paint get bad but im really anal about it and i wanted its 1st outing to look good so i got all my detailing gear out ive been collecting and set to work.
As you can see the thing was real dusty
So i washed it using the 2 bucket method using Dodojuice Born to be Mild and then i clayed it with some Sonus Ultrafine clay and Dodojuice Born Slippy Lube
I then dried it with a fluffy microfibre towel and in the hard to reach areas i blew out with the air gun on the compressor.
Then it was tape up the trim time.
I then did a 2 pass with Menzerna Final Finish and a White Hexlogic pad.
Then after that i gave it a coat of Dodojuice Lime Prime to cleanse the paint,then 2 coats of Poorboys Black Hole with a Black Lake Country CCS pad,then 2 coats of Jetseal 109 and then to top it off I used Swissvax Best of Show wax.
I then polished the wheels and dressed all trim in Autoglym Bumper care and then hit the windows with some Carlack cleanser and then the cream sealant.
Then for the interior i used Auto Finesse Tripple for the door shuts,Mercedes Starguard to condition the leather and then i brushed the suede headliner with a furry gerbil i found next door.
End result.
Thats it.I also fitted a new mint scuttle panel aand cleaned my exhaust inside and out with Meguiars NXT metal polish.
Next job is mot it which i cant see it not passing.
Then run the mother fluffer!
I would imagine most of my next updates will be of the engine build.
After a 12 hour polish fest yesterday i sat back and had a few beers while looking at what ive done over the past year and a half and im pretty pleased.
The engine build is going to be my favourite part of the build so expect lots more to come.
