Paint Correction on Purple Produa Myvi

Got a call from customer last week. He wanted me to detail his ride. After inspection, I suggest  a paint correction should be done on this paint. The owner agreed.

You might be wondering:

"Why did this guy chose an auto detailer instead of normal low cost car wash?"

"What is the difference between the service offered  by low cost car wash and auto detailing ?"

The answer, let the pictures speak for themselves...

The car initial condition:

It looked shiny...but wait..there were holograms, swirl marks and buffer trails!! let's take a closer look.


Yikes!!! This what you get when you send your car to low cost car wash.

Door panel
Passanger's door scratch
Another defect and I am not really sure what causes it.

So, I started by washing the car first with Turtule Wax Ice Car Wash.Then cleaned the wheels with Black Magic Wheel Cleaner.

 All the grimes got washed away

 Tools I ued to clean the wheels.


Ok done cleaning the car. Now it's time to clay the car. The purpose of claying is to remove all contamination(not visible to the naked eyes) prior to polishing. All this contamination cannot be removed by washing the car. I clayed the whole car since every part of the body was rough. The clay that I was using was meguiars clay bar.
Look at all the contamination that the clay picked up just by doing only 1/4 part of the roof!! 
Done clay the whole car. Next step :

1) Compound using Meguiars Ultimate Compound and Lake Country CCS Orange Pad
2) Polish using Meguiars Ultimate Polish and Lake Country CCS White Pad
3) Wax using Turtle Wax Wax It Wet 

50-50 difference after compounding. Look all the swirl marks gone.
 Bird poo I guess
 Wet sanding with 2000 grit and compound with wool pad to remove sanding mark
 Walla!!
Cleaning the pad after 3 passes to reduce dusting and prevent swirl marks cause by drying product.
After polishing the driver side door
Some defect(before)

Late night polish

After 3 day working on this car, I have finally finished!!Yesss!! Enjoy the result!!
