Not having much time to take and edit photos, I wanted to just do a quick writeup on this A7 we did earlier this year.\u00a0 We somehow lost all the before photos (happened before as well, I guess my cam doesn’t like the swirls!), but we have the important ones.\u00a0 Needless to say, the car was fairly hammered being driven for about 2 years with no polishing work done, but at the same time it’s an Audi and the swirls weren’t too severe.\u00a0 This is a car we actually polished and coated a few years back when it was brand new and he’s done as much as possible to keep it in great shape.<\/p>\n

We only had to perform two stages of polishing, first with M105<\/a> and after with M205<\/a>, using a Flex 3401<\/a>. Meg’s Microfiber Cutting Dics<\/a> were used with the M105 and White Lake Country pads<\/a> were used with the M205.\u00a0 After correction we applied the 22ple VX1 Pro Glass Coating<\/a> to the paint and on the front end, where there is a paint protection film as well.\u00a0 Here are some shots of the car outside and as you can see, it again looks better than new!<\/p>\n

We did a “wheels off” detail on the new and pricey HRE wheels.\u00a0 They were protected with the 22ple VM1 Wheel Coating<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite shots from the set, showing how glossy and mirror-like the car looked after the job was done.<\/p>\n

\"LUSTR.AudiA7PaintCorrection22PLE<\/p>\n

It’s now looking great and well protected for a couple years!\u00a0 This client comes back every 1.5-2 years for a full correction, coating, wheel detailing and sometimes even to replace some protection film pieces if they take a beating or look worn.\u00a0 I’m sure we’ll be seeing him again in a little while, but for now we’ll let him enjoy the shine!<\/p>\n
