It is uncommon to come across people who is willing to pay for a perfect, showcar level job, not to mention for a daily drive. This is one of them. This is a DIT job recommended by Mun of Hypergloss, KL. Together with detailing legend Kenneth of Wetshine.net, the three of us worked on this small car for 6 hours. A total of 18 man hours was spent on this Myvi to produce a swirl free, scratch free, bug and tar free and hologram free high definition finish. Not much pictures of the step by step process due to time factor. But here are a few pictures for remembering the fun filled DIT times...
After a good wash and claying, paint inspection was done.
Paint is already superb due to the way the owner maintain his car. Making it better will be a challenge. Good reflections with sealant. Minimal swirls.
After masking, Mun and Kenneth did test spots to determine the best treatment
Mun and Kenneth compounded with M105 on cutting pad. As for me, I polished and finished with M205 via Flex XC 3401 VRG.
The paint was then decontaminated and given a layer of sealant and wax.
The result is the wettest looking white car with sharp reflections. Usually only apparent on black paint. The picture below is before sealing and waxing.
Six hours is not a short time with 3 people working on a car. Nevertheless it is necessary to produce a show car level of finish. I respect the owner for his passion and the extent he goes to giving his car the best.
Thank you Mun and Kenneth for the company and especially Mun for the recommendation.
Great post bro, something to remember the day!
