I prepared my father in laws GTV for a concourse event here in PE that will take place next weekend 18 April, the car is in really good condition considering it is 27 years old.
After a wash with Sonax wash, I decided to tackle the exhaust first.
After an hour or so with various flatting papers and steel wool, I finished it off with Megs All Metal Polish.
After this I gave the wheels a clean, as they were pretty clean and free of brake dust, I opted for a 5:1 APC, followed by Rimwax.
They came up nice n shiny.
I then polished with Menz FF and yellow 3M pad thingy, IPA wipe down and the applied 3M Show Car wax, overall it came out nice, not perfect, but nice.
Some afters
And my favourite reflection shot.
Thanks.
