Hi all

Will be adding a 2012 MkVI gti to the family daily drivers soon. Couple of mates have some gti's so we thought lets see what all this fuss is about. As you can tell from name, current cars in garage are subarus, so this should be interesting. Hobby detailer so im looking forward to having a go and cleaning her up and posting some pics soon.

collected car on friday. needless to say I knew the long weekend would come in handy to start a thorough detail. Leather was way to shiny with body oils so interior got full steam treatment to get it nice and matte. then applied leather protection, vinyl and carpet protection.





exhaust tips had the most carbon build up ive ever seen on a car. I actually thought they were matte black. Here are some before and afters.









Wheels needed some major attention and barrels were coated in baked on brake dust. 1z colourtec doing its thing


finished and clean


Nice snow foam wash



finished for now. Paint correction and coating when i have some more time

Looks good. Maybe I should give you my MK2 and a week to clean it.

Cheers Paul. Have a few cars on the waiting list including another weekend needed to do the paint correction and coating or sealant on this one.
