horror of using brilo to wash car :(

hey guy's

had a lovely passat cc turn up for polishing, not th best condition and to top it off it was black,

car got washed and soaked with autoglym tfr, wheels had atoglym wheel acid,

then brought in and dried to reveal the horrors,.

car looks like its been hit with a brilo pad, along with bird poo staining too

here are a few pics,

started the polish, using 3m fc+ on an indasa hard pad, followed by 3m yellow fine polish, on yellow pad, this was topped off with 3m ultrafina then finally waxed with autoglym hd wax, tyres were done in autoglym tire shine and all plastics were dressed with autoglym rubber and trim dressing, windows done with autoglym fastglass

heres a 50/50 pic

Yep, I'd have said the same, probably ex-company car that the owner would have had to keep clean but not enough time to clean it properly.

The owner actually admitted to using a product on the car, the product was designed not to scratch but obs wrong, I have a feeling he's used something like g3 by hand. It's not a company car nor has it even seen a machine car was, the brilo was a joke lol
