    Mazda Atenza Station Wagon

    I got a phone call from this guy who is the nephew of a guys car that I polished . The power of word of mouth it's the best advertising you can get .
    This guy wanted his wife's business car polished he had tried to look after it for her but it got the better of him lol.
    He had seen the Alfa that I had polished and wanted it to look like that . Well talk about swirl city and all the advertising stickers , I have my work cut out here

    Products used where

    Clay and Lube
    A1 Water Spot Remover
    M105
    M205
    3M Ultra fine Polish
    M26 Wax
    Megs Metal Polish

    In the garage ready to make a start after a good wash




    I did a test spot with M105 on a Orange pad but found it was not enough cut so I ended up using the LCC cutting pads

    Here is the test patch





    So I was happy with the results time to buff it out , Sorry no more before photos

    This is the end result of my weekend detail













    Here Are A Few Photos After The Glass Was Polished

      Nicely done, but please tell us more about working on/around/through the graphics.

        Right on. I love a properly detailed black wagon.

          Nice work!

          Great looking wagon too... shame about the graphics IMO...

The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.
