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 Smile


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

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

[Image: DSC09241_zpsb4266630.jpg]

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

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 Smile


Thanks for reading

I have a couple on my phone Dan, i will try and get them copied off. I was quite tight on time, hence less pictures than normal and as Steve wanted to go over the engine bay himself, i didnt take any with the camera.
