My Type-R Enhancement Detail (Pic Heavy)

thieftakers · 17th October 2012, 13:14

I thought it was time to have my FN2 detailed as the previous owner had not washed her properly and had caused light scratches and swirls which my polish failed to remove. So I had my friend Shaun @ NorthEastCarCare do some work for me.

Cracking results as you will see from the pics below. Polish used was carpro fixer polish and Scholl S17 with yellow 3m pads. Glazed and two coats of swissvax wax.

Lovely work, saw this on Shains FB page & commented, now the hard bit is trying to look after it & keep it looking good

You have got to be pleased with the way it looks, know I would be, like Saun said it's keeping it like that now.

excellent work

robbo51 · 17th October 2012, 18:12

Superb.
Which Swissvax did you use?
Crystal Rock will give you 6 months +

Excellent work, looking very nice

Staffs Deltic · 17th October 2012, 20:31

That looks superb!

thieftakers · 17th October 2012, 21:29

Thanks so much guys.

Chris - I'm sure it's swissvax shield, he told me it would last around 4 months.

Looking good

polished up black car simply the best. If only Honda did the fd in black away back in 2007

I would have saved loads of money on carbon

Swissvax Shield is enriched with PTFE as well as Carnauba.
It has a protection life of 3 months +

simply stunning

Looks excellent, where is the place that you got it done? Mine could do with a polish as some light swirls are starting to appear from washing

Steven1976 · 23rd October 2012, 22:52

Brilliant finish, you must be well pleased with how it turned out.

ollthenavyboy · 23rd October 2012, 23:19

Totally agree, but it will be worth the hard labour

Hi Mick - Had it done by Shaun @ NorthEastCarCare based in Hartlepool he would need to inspect your car first and give you a quote. He is also on DW and DetailingParadise. His website is North East Car Care | Welcome

Glaze was Red moose machine glaze and wax used was swissvax shield. Overall really nice guy and pleased with the results.
