Jaguar XE R-Sport Swissvax Detail


Recommended Posts

So today, I was finally able to give the XE R-Sport a thorough detail.

My product range of choice is Swissvax, some folks may think that their products are old fashioned and snobbish, but I'm sure most will agree that a car like a Jaguar deserves quality.

Here's the products I used.

The car was washed in the normal detailers way (snowfoam, 2BM, dried, etc...)
The paint work was then cleansed, given 1 coat of SV Shield and the a coat SV Best of Show.
The wheels were then given a coat of SV Autobahn, tyres were dressed with SV Pneu, rear valance was dressed with SV Protect (Matt). Then last but not least, the exhaust tips were cleaned & polished with Britemax Twins metal polish.

In total it took me 8.5hrs from start to finish.

So here's the final result.

The only thing now to do tomorrow, is detail the interior.

Thanks reading and any comments or suggestions are welcome

good job Jason

Question for you if you don't mind

did you use some other product for your glass / head light lenses? 

Regards

Steve

Thanks Steve.

the glass (as in windscreen, side & rear windows) were washed in the normal fashion and then dried with a very short pile microfibre, before the rest of the car was dried, thus preventing water marks.

i hope that explains.
