Barn Find Porsche 924 DISASTER DETAIL!

In this Dingers to Diamond series we take a deep dive into reviving this very old and tired Porsche 924, pulled from the depths of a barn by the lovely chaps at Type2 Detectives.
In this deep clean we tackle the dirt, remove the mould and brighten the paintwork as well as we can. Sadly some of it on the front end is too far gone and needs some paint.
Starting off we hit the bodywork with all of our detergents to really strip back to paint. We even removed some oxidised paint at the pre-wash stage. (that's how bad it was!!!)
Next up was decontamination, the car must have been cleaned before going into storage as there wasn't anywhere near as much tar as anticipated.
Pulling the car into the studio we then began polishing and brightening the paintwork. Finishing off with some wax to lock in our hard work. Finishing touches and voilà.
Huge thank you to @type2detectives for thinking of us and letting us get our hands on some rare detailing lot.

I’ve been detailing for a good few years now but still found this very informative and interesting. Good job! 👍🏼

[@stjarnagloss]

Glad you enjoyed it bud 💚

[@popeye11144]

Forst is awesome pre-wash wouldn’t wash the car without it. And glatt to finish definitely gotta be done.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@stjarnagloss]

Agreed!! Thanks bud

[@supersaabclaire]

Same! 🔥

[@SteveBoniface-fe6yj]

Great information, so good to see just what is possible..... I think my very tired paintwork could do with some love!!!!

[@Lewis_Treff97]

Learn something new every day. Never thought to use the wheel cleaner on the bodywork. Always only applied it to my wheels

[@shoving6462]

Love these videos guy has an unmatched energy!

[@scootytamra]

I absolutely love Stjarnagloss, added my Stjarnagloss sticker i recently bought to my back window of my car, it has had it's full spring wash topped with Parla and looking amazing!❤❤💘

Looking good Jack really shows what the products can do, shame the paint is so poor on the old Porsche but certainly makes it look alive again

[@benmurray7163]

More Dingers to Diamonds for sure, please!

So, I finally got around to Detailing My mk2 focus st in sea grey, the only stage I didn’t do was the clay bar (as I used autobrite decon shampoo (had it to hand)
I did as follows
1. Sprayed the whole car with Forst then jet washed it off…… I could see how good it was by the colour of the water coming off the car!!! (Looked like the River Thames colour)
2. I then used SNO snow foam 50mil to 950mil and then agitated the nooks and crannies with a detailing brush
3. Jet washed the foam off and primed my blaster with my shampoo (in this case autobrite decon (to remove wax from chemical guys) then went over it with a wash mit
4, jet washed it again (at this point the neighbours thought I was cracking up) and dried her off
5. I then used colour changing wheel cleaner hjul (the wheels bled like a nose picker with sharp nails)
6. Then I used skara polish. ( witch made the car look absolutely fantastic)
7. On to the Parla spray sealant! ( at this point the car was popping and gleaming)
Used glass on the windows and then gummi for the tyres and trim
I have to say that every single stjarnagloss product was spot on.
Would highly recommend this Company.
My car is nearly 18 years old but it really got a new lease of life from stjarnagloss!! I’m now driving by shop windows to get a glimpse of my shiny motor (pity about the nob driving it though)
Anyways, I feel like I’m now part of the Big Dick Swingers Crew!!

[@benmurray7163]

So great to see you back on the 'Tube! And looking very trim, my friend, very trim indeed! Nice one Cav, well done mate

*Is it just me or have 924's really aged well? Especially with the ride height sorted.*

[@mannysimba]

What are your thoughts on wax where there are decals in a matt finish? Avoid?

[@nigelbryant5932]

I used a citrus pre wash and it stained my paint work. I’d rather use APC . Just stumbled across your channel. And subscibed

[@jamiesimpson9159]

Thanks, your my hero to

I pretreat and prerinse with rinseless everyday on every car. I would love a Stjarnagloss rinseless.

[@supersaabclaire]

Give me all the gloss 😋

[@25PHIPO]

Watched you for a while on tictok and throught jw autoshine. When I was at ford fair last bought some of your products and I have to say i was very impressed would love to see my car on your show.

[@OraEtLabora0]

6:53 probably forgot to add the 'american way' is not feasible during UK drought & hose-bans? 🤔

[@robbrennan199]

Hi Cav
Could i use Skara, Glasyr, Parla , and then fantastic wax on top?

[@stjarnagloss]

You can yeah, you will only get 3 months out of the LSP as Glasyr will only last 3 months but the gloss will be different gravy

[@robbrennan199]

@@stjarnagloss thanks cav, all my bits came today cheers!!
just one more quick question.
once proper polished with skara, then glasyr and topped with parla, what would be my stages to maintain between lsp?, And lastly, when it comes to re doing lsp, do i just top up with parla?
sorry cav, i know thats 2 questions but i do what i want (like you) lol, cheers

[@jbalinski]

I've missed you

[@TruckerMatty93]

How come you didn't use any tar remover?

[@stjarnagloss]

The was only a small amount on the car and the clay bar took care of it

[@TruckerMatty93]

@@stjarnagloss fair enough. Might be good to mention it though for newbies
