8/12/2017 Quick Detail, Mini CountrymanLast week I helped a family member move, which delayed wrapping up my Boxster detail by a few days. Since I have been on a detailing kick this summer, I decided to do a quick detail on their car since they where leaving a garage behind for outdoor covered parking. The interior was off limits and loaded with boxes, but I did do what I could to take care of the paint and exterior. I spent about 3 hours performing a quick strip wash and using a clay bar on the car. Once the car was prepped I applied a coat of Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant to the exterior. Once it dried I buffed it off, and let it cure for about 12 hours. I then followed up with a coat of Collinite 845 wax, and treated the plastic trim with Mother's Back to Black. I also used some steel wool and brake cleaner on the chrome exhaust tips which where almost all black, I used some Plexus on the headlights and tail lights, and Invisible Glass on the windows.
This was not the super detailed job I did on the Boxster, but you can make a significant difference in one day with just a few hours of work. The only non-scratch, blemishes left on the car where a few black specks on the front doors I suspect where tar, but I did not have any tar remover on hand to remove them. You can do a good job and make a lot of progress toward a clean and well protected car in just one day, you don't need to spent two weeks like I did. Comments are closed.
