Range Rover Evoque Gtechniq protection detail

This Range Rover detail was discussed with the new owner several weeks prior to the delivery date to make sure he was getting the correct products for his new pride and joy.
With living away from our studio and also being his daily driver we discussed the pro's and cons of both Gtechniq and mitchell&king products.
The final decision was to go for a Gtechniq protection detail comprising of an exterior C1 coating with glass being treated to a G1 rain repellant and T1 tyre black,The interior was to comprise of a L1 leather guard on all seating door cards dash etc and a C6 uv protector on dash and door cards .

The vehicle arrived at our studio after its initial dealership clean and handover with one very happy looking new owner ( rightly so i must add ) the customer then asked if it was ok to see the pre lim check which comprised of a ph neutral wash and plush towel dry then a full sun gun paintwork inspection.

On inspecting the vehicle we highlighted all the marks and scratches which were due to transportation/storage/ and general poor washing/valeting procedures much to the dismay of the new owner. ( No new vehicle is ever blemish free i must add)

We then began the journey into making this car better than factory finish.
The car was firstly fully decontaminated using a fallout remover and various clay bars,Next up was a full vehicle multi stage paint correction/ refinement to remove unsightly scratches and swirls from the paintwork.

Once this was completed we then gave a full ipa wipe down followed by another vehicle inspection prior to c1 coating.

The C1 coating was then applied and left for a 12 hour curing time,
Next up was the interior which comprised of a full blow out and vac using various attachments and detailing brushes
Once cleaned the L1 and c6 were appplied to protect the interior and the final internal window clean was completed, All interior high gloss trims were waxed for maximum pop.

The external windows were also cleaned with gtechniq glass cleaners and the g1 rain repellant was applied, the wheels were then sealed and the tyres were dressed with T1.

The whole detail took 3 days from start to finish and the car was transformed into what every new car should look like a stunning show piece!!!!!
