Mini Cooper S Overhaul: Complete Paint Correction & Ceramic Coating
we recently had the pleasure of giving a Mini Cooper S a much-needed transformation. This daily driver had seen years of road wear and exposure, so our customer wanted to revive its original shine and protect it for the future. Here’s how our professional detailing team achieved a stunning restoration with an extensive paint correction and premium ceramic coating.Step 1: Full Vehicle Decontamination & Deep CleaningTo kick off this Mini Cooper S overhaul, we performed a comprehensive decontamination process, removing embedded contaminants like iron, tar, and grime. We also removed the wheels for a thorough wheel and wheel arch cleaning. This meticulous process ensures that every inch of the car is spotless and primed for the next steps.Step 2: Multi-Stage Paint CorrectionThe Mini’s paint had accumulated swirls, scratches, and signs of oxidation from years of use. To restore a smooth, mirror-like finish, we used multi-stage machine polishing, carefully correcting imperfections and reviving the paint’s original color depth and clarity. This crucial step brings back the Mini Cooper’s signature shine and prepares the surface for ceramic coating.Step 3: Ceramic Coating with Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light + EXO V5To lock in the gloss and protect the paint long-term, we applied Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light paired with EXO V5 Ceramic Coating. This powerful combo adds a hydrophobic layer that protects against UV rays, road grime, and environmental contaminants. With this durable coating, the Mini Cooper S now boasts an exceptional gloss that’s easier to maintain.
