This is Zuya Factory, a car coating specialist located in Omiya Ward, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture.

This time, we would like to introduce a case study of a Citroën C5X that we coated for Mr. O from Kita Ward, Tokyo . Mr./Ms. O, thank you very much for choosing our shop from among the many specialty shops!

You purchased a dealer test drive vehicle (approximately one year old since registration), and at first glance it looks clean, but because it had been used as a test drive vehicle in various environments for a year, when we checked it under special lighting, we found that there were many layers of fine car wash scratches and airborne contaminants.

In order to completely reset these and finish it into a beautiful flagship that surpasses the condition when it was new, we took 3 nights and 4 days to take care of your car.

[Work performed]

  • Zuya Factory original coating (super water repellent)

  • Wheel ceramic coating

  • Window water repellent coating (all surfaces)

  • Unpainted resin coating

  • Molding coating

Introduction of the work process

1. Thorough cleansing to remove a year's worth of accumulated dirt

First, we gently lift and remove oil stains, water stains (scale), iron filings and other impurities that have adhered to the entire body, starting with the undercarriage, using specialized chemicals. European cars, in particular, tend to have a lot of brake dust, so we thoroughly clean even the smallest details of the wheels.

2. "Precision polishing treatment" to remove car wash scratches and dullness

After cleansing, we select the optimal polisher and compound according to the paint condition of the body and perform polishing treatment (buffing) with the skill of experienced technicians. By removing the fine wash scratches and dullness that occurred during its time as a test drive vehicle, the unique and beautiful body lines characteristic of Citroën are restored to a level of clarity and deep luster even better than when it was new.

3. "Multi-Protect" Application with No Particular Needle

Once the base is perfectly prepared, degreasing is performed, and then the application of the coating agent begins.

  • Body: Original Super Water-Repellent Coating Our shop's proud original super water-repellent glass coating is applied seamlessly. It provides a deep, captivating shine and, thanks to its exceptional water-repellent properties, makes daily car washing incredibly easy.

  • Unpainted resin & molding coating: The unpainted plastic parts of the Citroën C5X, such as the fender arches and bumpers, and the window frame moldings, are the areas most susceptible to whitening and staining from UV rays. By carefully applying a specialized coating agent to these details, the deep, rich black finish is protected for a long period of time.

  • Window water repellency (all surfaces) & wheels: We applied a robust ceramic barrier to all glass surfaces and wheels, providing complete protection for your entire vehicle.

After a 3-night, 4-day process, it's time for drying and completion!

After applying all the coatings, they are thoroughly dried and cured in a dedicated booth to complete the process. The

elegant styling unique to French cars has been transformed into a superb vehicle that looks flawless from every angle, truly radiating an aura of "more than a new car."
