Hello friends!:wavey:

Hope you are all doing great and fine :)

Sharing with you, the journey of a Nippon lady, a Toyota Yaris, great looking, but close inspection after washing and claying reveals a different truth. Not pleasant at all. The car has been washed with a scourer you would say!

Who set this guy loose on the car???

He is not supposed to touch any car, let alone clean them! OMG!


The ride has been washed 2BM. Claying 2 sections of it give the following:

Section-wise, looking at the most handled parts of the paintwork…. The door handles

The passenger’s side

Front door

Corrected

But will refine it further….

Back door

Zoomed

Corrected

The Driver’s Side

Back door

Corrected

Front door

Correction in process, no before pic

Some pics of door handles refined

The roof

The shy sun, hiding behind the clouds! The roof was in pretty bad shape.

With the led lenser

It rained afterwards ...!!!...!!!

The petrol cap

The 1940’s in 2012

The most obvious and larger sections were covered with defects of all types. Pinholes, orange peel, Holograms and swirls even sanding-like marks were all present to welcome the owner everyday. Remains of sanding marks were all visible.

The vertical panels

No clarity, dull and flat


Closer look

Hello Holograms! Hello swirls!

The other side

Lightning strikes, exposing all the defects

Washing with a scourer :hmmmm:

Can you see through? :rolleyes:

OMG!

Blurred !

Washing with a scourer!:stupid:

Plenty of these all over the surface

Original reflection, i mean blurred reflection!

Hard work begins now!

Compounding and testing, polishing and testing

Compare before

Now

A rare 50/50

Hello!:wavey:

Digging deep!

This is simply ……. HORRIBLE!

Overspray or Overflow?

The front bumper

Some 50/50

The uncorrected side corrected

Hello again! :wavey:

Zoomed

Remember

Now

A picture is worth 1000 words

Hi bro. thanks for your kind words. Been so busy these times! Got some torn muscles while playing volleyball! It’s slowly getting better thanks God.



Anyway, this is the last part of the detail. Not yet posted, so here it is.


The rear bumper

This was in the worst state. I let the pictures speak

Close-up

Improved but not eliminated. It needs paint touch up.


Still another

A lack of depth and reflection!

Corrected:

Another angle

Some finishing pics

The boss

Guess what’s in his hands!

Dad’s old bicycle

Run! Storm outside!

Beads, many kinds and many flavors of them

Extreme close up

Thanks so much for being with me buddies.

Need to take your leave now, I have a very long, long way to go…

See you very soon!

Your thoughts and comments are most welcome as always.

Take care and cheers :wavey:
