This gorgeous Audi RS6 in a pretty rare Nogaro Blue came in for a bit of an all round detail.
A new purchase for a long time customer - it wasn't quite up to his standards.
The order of the detail...
Full safe wash and decontamination.
Major Enhancement Detail - 2 stage machine polish.
Ceramic Pro 9H and Light ceramic coatings.
Ceramic pro Wheel & Caliper applied to wheel faces.
Ceramic Pro Rain applied to all exterior glass.
Interior detail including protection for leather, fabrics and plastics.
Engine bay detail.
Front bumper painted at the last minute.
The car on arrival.
The bumper didn't turn up with the car... it was painted the wrong colour 4 times and took years off of my life - before it finally went to my recommended body shop who nailed it first time

Every panel was littered with tar.

And as it's an RS6... lots of brake dust.

The rear badges were removed, as requested.

The car was clayed before the delicate areas were masked up and machine polishing could begin.

The paint work was refined and followed with Ceramic Pro Nano Polish applied via machine as a primer for the ceramic coatings.

Exterior glass protected.

As the bumper was still missing, it felt like a good opportunity to dress and protect behind it.
20180221_163033 by Richard Lewin, on Flickr
The interior was deep cleaned and protected.

Ceramic Pro 9H & Light applied to the paintwork.
The wheels were coated, all exterior trims dressed.

The front bumper was painted and we managed to fit it around 10 o'clock on the Sunday night.
And the finished result.
