Scirocco R Protection

Post by martinjrose »

Hey Guys

I am collecting her on Friday. Just wondering whether to get the Autoglm done or not, and is it really up to standard or should I get something done elsewhere, I dont really know the ins and outs of detailing.

But I know I want it protected.

Anywhere in London?

Thanks
Anakin

I demanded that the dealership didnt touch/wash mine and then took it to a Detailer. My Sister picked her shadow blue up 2 weeks b4 me and it was covered in swirlls before it even had 6 miles on the clock.
And you dont want swirls on your shiney new R !

Don't bother with it, it's rarely done properly and it won't last anywhere near like they reckon, I would gist do it myself with a decent polish then wax after, after I got mine I clayed it, machine polished then protected with zaino AIO then added Zaino CS

Late reply but I sub-c to Audi as a detailer and apply Lifeshine to their cars and TBH i wouldn't if i didn't have to.

It is an ok sealant when applied correctly but as 182 says, Clay it, polish it and shove some wax or Zaino sealant on it.

Zaino is superb and a doddle to apply/remove and is much better than AG lifeshine.

Hows the car ?

I got lifeshine put on my GT, but went to a separate detailer to do it not the dealer. I think its a good product esp as the interior is now guaranteed for 10 years!
