    Default Full Detail - Black Subaru GT

    Hi Guys,

    Well after purchasing my MPS i really got into detailing and seeing Dan's threads every week only pushed me to want to learn more.

    I made some purchases and researched long and hard and then threw myself into the deep end and tackled some cars. Started with the families, then friends, than their friends, and now randoms.
    Here's a detail I did on a random lady's Subaru Liberty GT (One of the best ones I've seen i reckon).

    I used my normal combination but man it responded well with the Subaru Black paint.

    Started with Cleaning Interior, Cleaned Wheels, Then hit outside with APC washdown, Pulled into garage, Taped everything, Fine clay bar, Hit with Menzerna PF2500 on Menzerna Yellow pad, Followed with Duragloss Paint Protection (601 & 105)

    Before:


    General Inside/Out Clean (APC) and pulled into garage.
    Taped it all up and inspected.


    Fair share of swirls and rids presented


    Used Fine Grade Clay Bar, Then used Menzerna PF2500 on Menzerna Yellow Pad

    Lady said It looked better than when she first picked it up, Always great to hear things like that. I myself couldn't stop looking at the car and taking pictures (As you can see)
    Thankyou for looking.

    Looks the goods, just one bit of advice from looking at Dan's threads, 50/50 shots really show off your hard work

    Well done mate. Looks awesome
    It's hard work, but watching someone's reaction to how good their baby looks will give lots of satisfaction

    You should see what Dan is detailing this weekend

    3 words.... OMG!

    sounds like a very valid reason to upgrade to something nicer

    From stock, to GT3071, to substantially less modded, many lessons learned!
