Detailer's Domain: VW R32 - Winter Prep

Detailers Domain · 01-08-2010, 04:29 PM

My very own R32 Winter Prep (with einszett)

I guess this is about the only time I will be able to do my car, when its snowing out.
No clay or paint correction needed at this point, however I will do some paint correction after the winter. It will need 2 steps.

My major concern was to clean off the salt and protect the car.

What was done -
Exterior

- Wheels were prepped with P21S Wheel Gel and cleaned up with various brushes
- Tires were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash and washed down
- Washed with ONR
- Wash down and rinsed
- Door jambs were cleaned up
- Dried
- Quick Polish for einszett Paint
- Wheels protected with einszett Spray Wax
- Protected with einszett Glanz
- Rubber and Plastics Treated
- Exterior windows and mirrors cleaned and sealed
- Exhaust tips cleaned

Interior Detail

- All interior surfaces cleaned and protected, including glass, and all
vinyl/plastic surfaces. (einszett Cockpit)
- Carpets and upholstery vacuumed.
