Perodua Myvi - Headlamp Restoration

A customer requested us to restore his yellowish headlamp and fix his paint chipping problems from stone chips plus some car waxing service. Due to the severity of the oxidized headlights, a professional sanding approach is required to restore it.

Beginning of the detailing process, washing of car.

After washing the whole car, we tape the side of the headlamp to prevent sanding the car's paint prior to headlamp sanding.

After wetsanding: 800 grit, 1200 grit & 1500 grit
(To sand off the damaged clearcoat from the headlamp)

After wet sanding, we use Turtle Wax Heavy Duty Rubbing Compound to remove heavier sanding marks and evenly level the sanding marks.

Definitely looking much better than it was previously! But wait, we don't just stop there.(After polished of the headlamp with Detailing Kingdom Next Cut 1.1 (Compound))

Toyota Vios - Silver Package

First day and first car to be detailed by us in 2016.
~ Toyota Vios AKA Toyota Yaris Sedan

The car looks alright but at closer look at its reflection, it appears dull.

We inspect the car upon arrival at customer's house:

The car's reflection can be clearly seen dull and hazy.
Trust us, we make it mirror shine again at the end.

Not much swirls problem on this car, but our main focus of polishing this car is not removing swirls but to make it shiny and reflective like NEW again.

We inspect for visible and large scratches all around the car

Some paint transfer on side mirror.
(We manage to remove the paint transfer safely from the paint - NO PICTURE)

It appears that there is deep scratches at the side door.

The scratches are too deep to be fixed by polishing or compounding.
It have reach the metal base.

Claying of the car - Decontaminate Paint

The car's paint was so dry until it came off easily like excess paint.
This car looks like it was left neglected for a long time.
A lot of polishing works and consideration required for this condition.

Polishing Work

~ From our paint inspection, the paint is in a unhealthy condition with a thin paint of 3 mils! This adds up to more consideration of steps needed to ensure the optimum safe polish required for fixing the car's condition. Too harsh will cause paint damage due to thin paint, too fine polish and these heavy defects will not be fixed.

Due to the dull and neglected condition of the car's paint, we had no choice but to use a more aggressive polish/compound to fix the condition.
(We use Detailing Kingdom Next Cut 2.2 compound and a yellow polishing pad - soft cut pad)

BEFORE polishing - Dull reflection

AFTER polishing - Clear and much better reflection! 

50/50 - 1 side polished (Below) / 1 side unpolished (Top)

Remember this deep scratches?

Tadaa! We fixed the visible deep scratches to a less visible result with paint touch up.
(We use automotive paint to fill the scratches and cover it with clear coat to ensure its lasting like automotive paint)

After polishing, we spraydown IPA to remove polishing oil on the car. We put car protection of sealant & wax on the car for long lasting shine.
