Fabia vRS with Valentines Concours Wax

Thursday I had a full machine correction and protection, as well as a interior upholstery clean to be undertaken on a Fabia vRS. The car does trips up and down from Coventry everyday so understandably it was completely covered in grime.

The package performed on this vehicle was Gold + Full Interior Detail

The vehicle was then snow foamed before washing to remove the majority of the grime on it.

The snow foam didn’t remove everything so it was time to use a fly remover on the front end and mirrors and an all purpose cleaner on the lower parts of the car where some of the excess grime remained.

The car was then washed with the 2 bucket method and clayed to remove all the left over bonded contaminants. 

I then masked up the car and assessed the condition of the paintwork, all in all it wasn’t to bad, next to no swirls but there were a few marks around the car. The car was treated with an ultra fine polish and a pre-wax cleanser to prepare for the glaze. Deeper scratches were treated with a higher cut compound and finesse with the ultra fine polish.

After the car was machined the lustre was greatly improved.

Alloys & Tyres before

Lots of brake dust, some of which was quite embedded. The alloys were treated with a wheel brightener, wheel sealant and the tyres were dressed.

The vehicle was then glazed with Sonus SFX-3 and sealed. Whilst these layers were left to cure properly before applying Valentines Concours Wax, I started on the interior.

Mats & Pedals before

Pretty grubby to say the least. The mats and pedals were cleaned using an all purpose cleaner and an interior brush, 
wiping the residue away with a microfibre cloth.

The all purpose cleaner was used with the interior brush was then used on the seats and the plastics were dressed.
