Car Detailing for Land Rover LR2

Detailing your Land Rover LR2

The LR2 is an older compact Land Rover that most GTA owners have kept well past a decade, and it shows its age in a chalky roof, foggy headlights and grey cladding more than anything else. We polish what clear coat can be saved, restore the headlights and bring the trim back. Inside, the Almond leather gets a proper cleaner and conditioner, the sunroof drains get cleared and the damp footwells and thin cargo carpet get extracted.

What we watch for on a LR2

• Clear coat on the roof and hood is often chalky by now and the headlights hazy; a correction and a headlight restoration transform an older LR2
• Almond leather has often been cleaned with the wrong products for years and looks grey; a proper cleaner and a matte conditioner help
• Panoramic sunroof drains clog with leaves and cause damp carpets; we clear the channels and extract the footwells
• Black cladding and the plastic lower bumpers fade to grey; a trim restorer brings the colour back for months
• The thin cargo carpet soaks up salt from bags; an extraction keeps it fresh

Compact SUVs: cargo areas that do everything

Compact crossovers are family cars, gear haulers and dog taxis in one. The cargo floor, the rear seatbacks and the door sills collect the most dirt, while taller bodies catch more road spray along the sides.
