Cleaned the front right alloy wheel completely with Wolfs Chemicals Nano Bath and protected it with 1 coat of Wolfs Chemicals Rim Shield to be followed by a second coat tomorrow.

Took me 1,5 hour to do the driver's side. 4,5 more hours and the car's underside is done :wink:
After the underside is done it will be time to give the outside some proper detail:

During the day went to work but once home with this gorgeous weather got back into my "Spring Cleaning" mini-project :D
Of came the wheel

The wheel arch got cleaned, the lower part of the bumpers & sideskirts*detarred*and exhaust cleaned*

Removed the numberplate at the rear and gave the boot a good clean finally protecting the Carbon fiber CSL boot spoiler with 2 coats of Wolfs Chemical Hard Body. After that started to protect the boot with Chemical Guys Pete53 followed by some Blacklight... just the front wheel left and I can start with the rest of the bodywork :smiling:

While detailing the car started to get the battery charge back to its good levels...
Car and garage are looking well Harry! :)
Thanks a million Dave, appreciated :wink: Happy out with the Garage although there are still some little jobs to be finished. The IS is slowly but surely getting there. Being a fussy fec** there are certain parts which will need to be repainted such as the front and rear bumper as there seem to be cracks under the clear coat if that makes sense? Nosecone will be another part which needs to be addressed. I don't think that it will be possible to wet sand them away so think re-paint is the only option :sad: ... that is unless I decide to keep her as such to give her even more the sleeper look :smiling: I will certainly take the occasion to give the car a new enhancement from a bodywork perspective as she is nearly finished the way I had her in my head so... watch this space :cooler:
@ harry, any pics of the cracks? might be wrinkling, where the paint reacted with something underneath, i have the same issue on a section on my quarter, eventually i'll probably touch up some parts. that's the problem with cleaning the fecker, you get to see everything wrong with them! little marks everywhere, would really require a full repaint to be right. not something i want to do on a cheap daily.
