Default Baker21's Superb........gets Stripped Then Photoshot!!!

Tom_vRS and I met up at on Saturday for a days detailing and maintenance............I basically agreed to detail Tom's new Octy vRS and Tom agreed to replace my Radiator, check the drain holes and also wind my coliy's down for me..........

I have posted up the link to the thread in the Styling and Car Care section but thought I would put up some of the pics here while Tom was stripping my car and also the photoshoot before he left in the evening:





















For the full thread for work on Tom's car have a look here:

UDM VS SKODA OCTAVIA vRS MK2............PHOTOSHOOT!!! - Detailing World

Thanks to Tom for his hard work on mine and anyone that needs any help or advice on their Superb when it comes to the car..........Tom know's his stuff...........

Thanks mate, Tom did a cracking job on the Superb and it runs so much better now than before...........having replaced the seals on the boost pipes it's running sweeter than ever and I am just amazed how easy he made it look..............

Eeek.... did the whole front end really have to come off to get the radiator out ?

Wish I had a nice covered area to work on Sat.

Well Tom would have to answer that question, he did a proper job in my opinion, cleaned all the intercooler hoses out and put a few bolts back on that I was missing originally......

Did you do the Avant at the weekend? Where are the pics?

I did some of the Avant.

Affraid I didn't get round to the valet/detail due to turning into a human icepop after 6 hours laid on snow etc.

Back on topic.... the photos look brill. Wouldn't have expected so much swirling on Tom's for such a new car.

Your right mate, you wouldn't expect it from a new low mileage car but this clearly highlights how important the wash process is.............

Thanks for the positive comments guys!!! It was a fun day for sure.

The Passat/Superb is a joy to work on, really quite simple, just time consuming. Simons is better than models I've seen with half the miles!

As for the quality of the detail - I'm staggered, completely overjoyed!!!!
