2008 Audi R8 Jet Blue Metallic
Today was probably one of the most thrilling and rewarding day I have had detailing a car. The car today was a 2008 Audi R8 in Jet Blue Metallic. After numerous cancellations with the client and problems with the Northeast weather in getting the car done, the weather today of 80 degrees and sunny was perfect to get this car completed.
The car only has 500 miles on the odometer and was in mint condition with only minor brake dust accumulation on the wheels. After going on the car thoroughly with my Brinkman and in the direct sun I found very little marring or swirls. Thank goodness for good dealer prep I guess. The highlight of the day was the insistence of the client for me to actually drive the car and give him my thoughts on what I thought of it. I was extremely reluctant to drive it but the client insisted that I take it for a ride and tell him what I thought. Well what could I say? The car is simply amazing. 420 hp in a rear engined automobile with an exhaust note that just causes chills up and down your spine. It will surely be a day to remember. The client is set to receive 1 of the first 32 Nissan GTR's at the end of this month or the begining of July. I can't wait to get my hands on it. Its going to be a good summer  Onto some pics Process (6 hours) Foam with Eagle One Wash Soap and CG CWG Wash with 2 bucket method and Ultima Wash Soap Clean wheels with P21S Wheel Cleaner Clean wells and tires with P21S Total Wash Clay with Clay Magic clay Polish with Zaino AIO via Ultimate Detailing Machine and white polishing pad Zaino Z2 (ZFX’d) x 2 on paint/wheels/glass Interior mats and carpets cleaned with Folex carpet cleaner Glass cleaned with Zep Glass Cleaner Engine wiped down and dressed with Sonus Total Eclpise Interior wiped down with with Meguiars Quick Interior Detailer Interior vinyl dressed with Sonus Total Eclipse Leather dressed with Four Star Leather Conditioner All exterior plastic lenses polished with Meguiars Plastix Exhaust and engine metal polished with Wenol Metal Polish Tires dressed with Meguiars Hot Shine Tire Dressing Wheel wells dressed with Street Appeal Tire Dressing
