Swissvax'ed: ADV.1's White Lamborghini Gallardo
This car had never gotten any sort of "Detailing" other than just normal washes once a week by some car wash guy. The car was full of swirl marks and had some severe oxidation and exhaust residue in some parts.
We decided to tackle this job with Swissvax Cleaner Fluid Professional polish to remove the swirls and oxidation and bring the paint back to life! We then topped the paint off with Swissvax Glacier wax for White paint. Here's the products we used: Products: -P21s TAW -1Z Blitz -1Z W99 -1Z Windscreen -Sonax Full Effect -#0000 Steel Wool Swissvax: -Car Bath -Protecton -Seal Feed -Paint Rubber (Yellow) -Quick Finish -Cleaner Fluid Professional via FESTOOL with a white Swissvax FINE pad -Glacier wax for white paint -Nano Express -Cleaner Fluid Regular -Autobahn PTFE Wax (Wheels) -Pneu Glossy -Waschpudel -Black Puck Applicator -Black wax applicator -Micro-Absorb (Red) -Micro-Polish (Blue) -Micro-Fluffy -Pneu Brush -Detail Brush -Wheel Brush -Metal Polish Here's how she looked when we got there... sad and dirty... Looks like a Matt finish! Check out the grime buildup in-between the rear emblem Car had been keyed :/ Faded plastic piece To begin the cleansing process, i start by cleaning all the plastic mesh pieces and the body creases with P21s TAW and a Swissvax Detail Brush Here's how it looked after agitating P21s TAW While i cleaned the engine bay, Beni worked on the wheels Onto claying the exterior surfaces Beni working on the interior After a single wipe of leather cleaner on the center console Second wipe A 50/50 after applying Swissvax Protecton Here's a 50/50 of the center console. The bottom (Passenger) side had been cleaned... after 4 cleanings... and the upper (Driver) side had not yet been touched. Polishing In this picture the fender on the left side had been polished and the driver door to the right had not yet been touched. Check out the difference in gloss and color! Polishing the hard-to-reach areas Beni working on the wheels Removing Swissvax Glacier And the result... sorry for the not-so-great pics... it was about 2am... And the professional photoshoot following the detail job http://www.luxury4play.com/lamborghi...do-wheels.html That's all for that one! Thanks for looking! Dom |

Must be nice to own a car that nice and not care how its treated and taken care of. At least the owner was smart enough to call you. Awesome work. The owner needs slapped though for letting his car look like that, no question. My daily driver even in winter, in Colorado, is hardly ever that dirty.
