This job saw us and the guys from G-tecchniq take a little trip up to Coventry airport to work together on this brand new Helicopter one week after its delivery from Italy to the UK for its proud new owner, we were there to get a perfect finish to the paint work and then provide it with the best possible long lasting protection too.
The air craft was already cleaned ready for us to work on arrival, all we need do is give it a wipe down and we where ready to start the polishing work using the G-techniq P-system, P1 (polish) on a yellow polishing pad was used for the most part, the paint was rock hard on this:

In the before pics you will see the very fine light swirling from the polishing done at the factory, this was taking away the depth and clarity of the paint and not letting the really fine metalic flake shine through as it should:

Once the paint was polished to perfection we did a big clean up all panel gaps etc cleaned out and the whole thing wiped down with IPA:


Then Janis decanted some C1 in to smaller bottles and i set about applying it to all the paint, trim and plastic screens etc whilst Janis went around buffing off after, As rob was the tallest he got to go up the ladder and do all the top parts

Then a good check around and final buff and there we have it :
