Oh and as an after thought, because it has been repainted the paintwork won't be as hard as the original paint which makes working on it a lot easier

Audi paintwork is notoriously hard and makes detailing a nightmare of a job, usually well beyond the capabilities of the average petrol head.
On the other hand, one good thing about Range Rover is their paint is a delight to work on, not too soft and not too hard so well within my scope. When I vied my Range Rover the paintwork was very poor, it had been a farmers car and been through the fields, along hedgerows, probably carrying sheep to the market, towing horse boxes and whatever else farmers do with their cars, it really was a shambles. But I saw the potential and made an offer which was eventually accepted much to my surprise. It took about 3 weeks to complete the detailing work and was well worth the effort. The interior was first to be tackled, it was covered in horse hairs and had a smell of dog pee so it was stripped out and everything steam cleaned, disinfected, leather fed and rebuilt The exterior never had so much as a parking ding in the bodywork, but the scratches were something I had never seen as bad before

Slowly the depth of the shine started to appear
and the more I worked at it, the better the shine and the deeper to the paintwork until I finished with this Deep scratching was on every panel Rear door polished Front wing before and after Bonnet edge before and after

Don't forget plastic parts like lights etc can also be cut back and polished up 50/50 shot finished Then once all the hard work is done it's playtime

Odd how it does scratch easily, but removing the scratch is difficult
