Stonkin Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Here we have Steve's Big Twins Supra, i'm sure you will all know the car. After Lee at SRD had completed some extensive work on the car, he dropped it off at mine for the car to be detailed prior to Steve's collection. I did not take any photos of under the bonnet as it was not part of the detail, however the work done under there was extremely impressive So, this was the car on arrival Being snowfoamed as a pre-wash Tyres, door/boot/fuel shuts and window trim all cleaned with APC, wheels with Bilberry, before being clayed and then washed via 2 bucket method using Shampoo Plus. Taken inside to be dried and have paint thickness readings taken. Not looking too bad, but the paint revealed its true condition when inspected under LED lighting and was really hindering the Supra's appearance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 So after a full stage 1 machine polish to enhance the finish, the paint was panel wiped to remove excess residue with an IPA solution and then treated with 1 layer of Swissvax Best of Show Wheels were polished with NXT, tyres treated with Endurance Gel, glass polished inside and out, interior hoovered, dusted and cleaned with APC. These were the final pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 This Supra was a pleasure to work on and has really given me the itch to get another one. The simple looks, nice wheels and plenty of power under the bonnet, this is what makes a Supra for me Thanks for reading Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai 20V Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Wow! Thats stunning! Got to love a properly detailed black Supra! I just treated myself to a DA polisher, I hope I can replicate those results! Any details on the products used for the paint correction? Well done!

Porky1978 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Awesome results. I was wondering about the alignment of the bonnet too, thought it was my eyes. Like already said, maybe just a tweak needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 The bonnet was down to me guys, I didnt realise it wasnt quite shut before taking the pics. First thing Lee said when he arrived was 'the bonnets not shut' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
