Aim to be cleaning mine this weekend and using the Gtechniq ceramic coating you advised for the bodywork rather than the wheel Armour in your photo. Assume not as good but still OK?

Hi nanu, body and wheel ceramics are different chemicals... the wheel ceramics will only last about a year and is deigned for high heat areas. The body ceramics such as c1, crystal serum light, EXO, Ultra are very different.... C2 v3 is a spray on sealant that is a really watered down version of the full fat ceramics but gives solid water behavior and protection if used regularly and layered. C5 is a great product for wheels, calipers, exhausts and engine bay components.

picked this up this am and she looks well! is it perfect? nope... are my freehand cuts abit squiggly if you really get up-close and personal ? yup ( especially on the arches etc when im trying to to freehand cut one clean curved line etc)... its the nature of the beast unfortunately on these older cars where their are no patterns and what patterns are available aren't great tbh as this era PPF was pretty basic.

    Final update ....

    ONE for the memory bank for sure. It's taken a moment for this to sink in. I knew this was a big deal but didn't understand how difficult it was to get into this particular publication, meaning it was a way bigger deal than I understood, the one people aspire to get into. After speaking with the photographer, It really dawned on me how special this moment was ... The car which is without doubt super special and marrying them together with what we do at the shop has been such a win for them both, this car has been instrumental in helping TW get where it is today and showcased what we can do. This global platform will be featuring our car as such this will see the TW brand put in the spotlight once again. An absolute honor of the highest order. Thanks for everyone that followed this thread! ill update when the magazine in question decides to release the article!

    Next up the car will be going to BMW show at santa pod, then its service time, then some track days!
