Maintenance weekend During last weekend I refreshed my cars. Car previously booked (VW Transporter) could not come and I'll take care of it later. All work (except vacuuming) I did by hand because I did not have quite the mood to work with machines. In combination with the heat it was a nice workout, better than fitness or gym http://www.autospaclub.eu/honda-jazz-i-audi-a7-en.html PS. On Saturday I met with Colin from Brussels, an experienced detailer who is interested to work on cars in Auto Spa We arranged the next weekend for a big Jeep full detailing.
Great idea of your project! But your earn money or just a club? Try to call professional marks for free shows of products etc
My club is not to earn money. I will be happy if donations will cover a part of the maintenance of the premises. Currently it is around 1000 EUR per month (rent, electricity, water, gas).
7-9 August 2013: For a few days of my vacation I dealt with a five years old Lancia Musa. More information and photos can be found at: http://www.autospaclub.eu/lancia-musa-en.html 10-11 August 2013: This weekend I worked with the owner of "The Torpedo" - 6 year old (if I remember well) Peugeot 407. More information, photos and a short video can be found at: http://www.autospaclub.eu/peugeot-407-en.html This weekend at Auto Spa, Colin (I wrote about meeting with him a week ago) worked on a black Jeep Compass and he achieved a really super effect. It was a great, great weekend. The atmosphere was just awesome!
17-18 August 2013: Very well cared Audi A5 Sportback in Lava Grey color (pearl) came specially from PL to Auto Spa ... That's a joke, of course, but it would be nice if it were true . During the first half of Saturday, together with the owner brother, we cleaned and secured an elegant interior - using professional products from 303 and Chemical Guys. In the afternoon, I thoroughly washed the car. Condition of paint was very, very good - some individual small scratches and two places where someone wipe bird droppings - probably using a dry paper. I decided not to do any correction and I just deeply cleaned the entire car body with a slightly abrasive cleaner (Dodo Juice) and Flex 3401 machine. Finally, the paint was covered with a double layer of synthetic "wax" (Menzerna Power Lock). Wheels, windows, lights, plastic and rubber components have also been secured with the best products that I have in my collection.

J'adore le principe !! Dommage que cela ne soit pas plus répandu. Par contre, quid de la rentabilité ? :/

7-8 September 2013: Weekend after the summer break was very interesting and entertaining. For a full two days we have worked together with Colin on two very nice cars - twenty years old Porsche Carrera 993 and one and half year old Peugeot 207 CC (cabriolet). I invite you to see the pictures and videos on the page: http://www.autospaclub.eu/en/peugeot-20 ... e-carrera/
14-15 September 2013: This weekend, I dealt with two years old Ford Fiesta, with a deep black metallic paint. In accordance with the owner’s wishes I did not touch the interior of the vehicle (except for windows and door bays), which gave me more time to work on the paint. The car was very thoroughly washed, paint corrected and at the end all external components were properly protected. This time I would like to describe a little more about all the steps that are necessary and thus show that a proper auto detailing is really quite complicated and time-consuming process. ford-fiesta-t14022.html - Big test of sealants and waxes started. On the test car were applied various waxes and sealants. Car through the winter will be just washed periodically. Every two or three weeks we will examine which products are continue to fulfill its purpose, the protection of the car. Have a look: le-grand-test-27-produits-sur-une-iq-t14030.html
21-22 September 2013: The whole weekend we worked together with Colin on a twelve years old Jeep Cherokee. This giant car looked not too bad from a distance, but upon closer inspection, it turned out that 'he' is in a really bad shape. The paint was covered with a dense network of scratches and hundreds chips from stones. Please, look at the pictures and videos from these exhaustive two days. http://www.autospaclub.eu/en/jeep-cherokee/
27-29 September 2013: An almost vintage car, an Alfa Romeo Spider back from XX century, paid us a visit this time. I invite you to read a short description and view the large photo gallery and video. http://www.autospaclub.eu/en/alfa-romeo-spider/ We will probably put more detailed report to the ''Shine and Show - Showroom - Studios".
5, 6, 12 and 13 october 2013 Alfa Romeo 147 This is my third Alfa Romeo. Slowly I become a specialist in Alfas and I'm not sure if I like it . Again this car was very difficult in terms of paint correction, which was very whimsical and clearly did not want to be perfect . http://www.autospaclub.eu/en/alfa-romeo-147/ Toyota Yaris The whole weekend we were working on a small Toyota together with its owner. Very enjoyable two days and I think we were able to divide responsibilities well during all the steps that are needed to professionally refresh the car. Yaris stood a long time outdoors not used, and all crevices and nooks have accumulated a lot of heavy grime. http://www.autospaclub.eu/en/toyota-yaris/
26-27 October 2013: Eight years old Audi A6 Avant came to Auto Spa in order to make the best as possible refreshment and protection for the winter. After a brief conversation with the owner, it turned out that he is more interested in restoring the interior of the car. http://www.autospaclub.eu/en/audi-a6-avant/
