Shine My Ride were contacted by a young gentleman near
Ilminster. He was reluctantly selling his VW Golf, which was a rare 170bhp version of the GT TDi.
Due to being parked under trees, there were some stubborn stains, which he had tried to remove using T-Cut. Many people do not realise that T-Cut is a very harsh product, and in this case it had created hazy areas all over the car, particularly by the door handles and the bonnet.
The owner had a propsective buyer travelling all the way from Norfolk, so wanted the vehicle to make the right impression.
So once the vehicle was clean, it was time to try and improve the appearance of the paintwork. A light machine polish with a pre-wax cleaner was enough to remove the cloudiness and bring depth and gloss to the paintwork. The paintwork was then waxed with a liquid wax product, to further enhance the gloss, and give some protection to the paintwork. Tyres and trim were dressed to enhance their appearance, ready to create a good impression.
So once the exterior work was complete, this was the result.
