Thanks for viewing another (but infrequent) All That Gleams detail. Now I know this is 'only' a protection detail but I love white cars at the moment and really like the Jaguar XF so even if this post is for my own benefit then I don't mind
As stated the car was bought 2 weeks ago on a '60' plate but gladly the owner refused to use the dealerships suggested paint protection or another valeter offering 'everythingbutsupa-guard'. Still, wanting the car protected he gave me a call and as he wasn't too bothered about any form of polishing, a protection detail was booked in to make sure the box-fresh vehicle started off on the right foot.
No washing stages captured on film, although the car had been driven it required and was subjected to my useful washing stages:
Products used throughout washin:
Espuma Revolution (Wheels)
Meguiars Super Degreaser (Tyres/Arches)
Vikan brushes
Meguiars Interior Brush (Tyres)
Meguiars APC - shuts
Swiss brushes - shuts
Snow foam
Meguiars Shampoo
Tardis
Aquartz Iron Cut
Mild Clay
Meguiars Last Touch
Tools Used:
Kranzle K7
Two large clear buckets
One smaller bucket for wheels
Lots of drying towels
Lots of microfibers
So, when I arrived:

Zaino AIO was then applied to clean the surfaces including paint, wheels and chrome
Curing:
Buffed off with Z6:
Two coats of Z2 was then applied:
Buffed off with Z6:
The glass was then treated to the car lack twins:
All the smaller details such as chrome, exhausts, arches & tyres were treated to leave this finish:
Wet looking white:
Thanks
