Swissvax'ed: ADV.1's White Lamborghini Gallardo
This car had never gotten any sort of "Detailing" other than just normal washes once a week by some car wash guy. The car was full of swirl marks and had some severe oxidation and exhaust residue in some parts.
We decided to tackle this job with Swissvax Cleaner Fluid Professional polish to remove the swirls and oxidation and bring the paint back to life! We then topped the paint off with Swissvax Glacier wax for White paint. Here's the products we used: Products: -P21s TAW -1Z Blitz -1Z W99 -1Z Windscreen -Sonax Full Effect -#0000 Steel Wool Swissvax: -Car Bath -Protecton -Seal Feed -Paint Rubber (Yellow) -Quick Finish -Cleaner Fluid Professional via FESTOOL with a white Swissvax FINE pad -Glacier wax for white paint -Nano Express -Cleaner Fluid Regular -Autobahn PTFE Wax (Wheels) -Pneu Glossy -Waschpudel -Black Puck Applicator -Black wax applicator -Micro-Absorb (Red) -Micro-Polish (Blue) -Micro-Fluffy -Pneu Brush -Detail Brush -Wheel Brush -Metal Polish Here's how she looked when we got there... sad and dirty... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Looks like a Matt finish! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Check out the grime buildup in-between the rear emblem ![]() Car had been keyed :/ ![]() ![]() Faded plastic piece ![]() To begin the cleansing process, i start by cleaning all the plastic mesh pieces and the body creases with P21s TAW and a Swissvax Detail Brush ![]() Here's how it looked after agitating P21s TAW ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() While i cleaned the engine bay, Beni worked on the wheels ![]() ![]() ![]() Onto claying the exterior surfaces ![]() ![]() Beni working on the interior ![]() ![]() After a single wipe of leather cleaner on the center console ![]() Second wipe ![]() A 50/50 after applying Swissvax Protecton ![]() Here's a 50/50 of the center console.
