A package 4 detail of a 2004 Volkswagen GLi, in metallic Black, slammed on BBS RS's that came to me in prep for H20 International this year. The car was in overall great shape paint wise, with the exception of some swirling and other defects. Fortunately, Volkswagen comes with a significantly harder clear coat than most car manufacturers.

The goal for this car was to get it ready for show, and we did just that! As you will see in the photos, the painted needed help but what black car doesnt? Fortunately I had quite a bit of time to work with the car so everything was gone over from top to bottom which was practically ground level. The wheels had recently been restored by the owner and did not need my attention, so most of the photos will consist of the paint work.

Process:

Menzerna SIP - Yellow Foam
Menzerna 203 - Orange Foam
Menzerna 85RD - Green Foam
Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant - Blue Foam
Collinite's No. 845 Insulator wax

Some tire shine spin-off:

After prep paint photos:

Quick snap of the tape work:

Some 50/50 Photos:

BBS RS wheels

Thank you for looking! Enjoy!
