20th Anniversary GTI Jazz Blue
This was our customer's daily driver, in pretty good condition, we needed to knock out some swirls and light scratches with Menzerna PO83 and finished off with PO85RD as a last step polish.
As for protection we opted for Einszett Glanz wax as this car sits outside and is in the elements, customer requested a bit more durability.
We also cleaned up the HVAC with Einszett AC Klima.
