- Escort RS Turbo (Super Clean!)
The 90's hot-hatch was a new purchase for an existing customer of mine. With just 12,000 miles on the clock, the Ford was certainly a very nice example, but still plenty of room for improvement with the correct detailing processes.
The flat black (non-metallic) paintwork putting up a fight during the polishing stages. Overall, 85-90% defect removal was achieved from the singe stage paintwork. Coated with Modesta BC-08 & wheels with BC-06.

Should be a million plus channel.
Master craftsman.
Thank you jim.
All of those channels are just clickbait trash where they clean soccer mom cars full of childrens shit stuck to the seats.
I personally find Detail Geek's work very satisfying as far as 'consumer-grade' detailing goes. Jim's work of polishing an exterior for multiple days is not very comparable to cleaning filthy beaters.
@@WaffleDragon me to, there is always room for trash garbage cars being cleaned and i love it but this is something else;)
Absolutely stunning finish. I think I could have sat on that chair staring at it for about a week ❤️❤️❤️
Totally agree lad👌fuckin stunning job.
A new upload from Jim is like celebrating Christmas 😂🎄. Wuhuuu!
Fantastic work as always, Jim! This car has great significance for me. As a child, growing up in the '80s, I was an avid reader of 'Fast Ford' magazine and dreamed of owning an RS Ford. In 1995 my dream came true and I bought a mercury grey 1989 series two Escort RS Turbo. The nostalgia and great memories I have of that car, have come flooding back, watching this.
Ahhh takes me back.... when a car’s driver aids were 3 pedals and a round thingy in front of the driver. Superb work as always
I did work at Halewood in the paint shop for 30yr building Escorts and I never did I see a car go passed me looking anything like that 👍 not even at the dealership when we would go there, yes it had some stone chips, that you could do nothing about, but that looks better than new to me. Love it and the car 😆
We all love an RS Turbo 🙌🏻
Man, you are the absolute number one! Your work is as near as perfection that can be humanly done!
Cheers from the other side of the sea (Neuquén, Argentina)!
Jim. Your work is superb. The fact that you work so hard on your customers cars is one thing but then to edit these videos for your audience takes your commitment to another level. I remember driving these when they were new. Another Ford success that back then were 10 a penny but now as rare as rocking horse 💩 in this condition. Brilliant. Thanks.
taking on a job like that takes balls... you're becoming a master of the art of polish.
Amazing work Jim.... you kind of forget how small cars from the 80s really were....and how we played with single stage paint....
Thanks Jim
Had a black mk5 xr3i 19 years ago... good times
White details is detailing at its pinnacle! This is levels.
Mega Mega work!!! Everyone can understand the fantastic detailing on this car...however, only a few will truly know and appreciate the time and effort you must have put in with the camera work!
Thank You @whitedetails and Jim!
Fantastic Jim! Your work always amazes me, the attention to detail is brilliant and the hours you put in to a car is unbelievable.
Incredible work, Jim. I can’t imagine your anxiety levels whilst polishing this 😂
I hope they look after it now 👊🏼
That takes me back to the days right there. Damn, what a mighty backflash.
I haven’t watched this yet cause it’s just gone up publicly but an hour of WD is gonna be superb 🤌🏻
Amazing work, Jim. Would have loved to see an owner reaction on this one!
Fantastic result on what, for me, was a bit of a nostalgia fest - XR3i back in the day! Top work, Jim.
Have to say, best detailer out there. Perfection!
White Details: Correction, Reflection, Perfection. Top work Jim.
Couldn’t sleep last night and while surfing UA-cam I came across your channel and this video. Thanks Jim for putting this up. One of my favourite cars restored so well and you have a great way of presenting. Cheers
To the individuals that 👎🏻 look at the level of work Jim does and the level of skill with film making then look at yourself in the mirror
Matte black "...like polishing butter"
Best line ever!! 🤩
. . . and here we have the shiniest RS Turbo to ever exist. Amazing work and extremely satisfying to watch. 👌🏼🤩
It looks like a museum piece.
Pure perfection
Wow, Jim. Just wow. Incredible turnaround. I usually think that cars should be driven, but stick this one in a corner and leave it there.
Wow.. i just bought a 1987 Ford Escort 4 days ago. 1.6 liters and i finished polising it today!
You sir, are an absolute magician
I'm happy to see you seem less worn down, and tired in this one sir. The work was as always top notch.
I’m sooo glad to see the front bumper got painted looks a million dollars Jim, top man, top job.
This car held its looks for soo long, love her.
This was my dream car 25 years ago lol. What truly amazing job you've done on it.. it was great to watch
Fantastic Jim. That's quite a turnaround!
Perfect Results. And cool Car. Thanks for the Video
Greetings from Germany
Much prefer to see the old cars getting detailed and the level of skill involved is so much higher than on the more modern paint
Great work and thanks for filming it
To me, the best detailer on UA-cam, you’re great Jim
My brother in law worked in the city of London back in the day and had one as a company car. He let me have it for a weekend (he had some great cars then, still does now he is retired!) Spent the weekend looking out the passenger window going round roundabouts! Great car and yours is a credit to you. Enjoy it whilst you still can. Bound to banned like most things we enjoy at some point.....
What a fantastic job done... incredible turn round... well done
What a treat, another outstanding video, thanks Jim!
Brought back some memories this one with my dad owning an XR3i, absolutely incredible work Jim I was gobsmacked at the end result, top work 👍
My dad had an Escort xr3i in black with the red pinstripe unfortunately before I was born . My mother decided it would be fun to write it off and he got a rover 414i and an escort van when I was born 🤮
Finish is superb, as ever .
Gorgeous job, I know it's an old video however when I'm tired of music at the shop I play your videos
Mind blowing result.
Great Great Great. What else is there to say. Learning so much. Thank you for the opportunity to watch a master.
I use to have the Mk IV XR3i version in black when I was younger, wish I still had it. However, watching the video, I now regret wasting 30+ years of my life working in a damn office when after watching your video, all I wanted to do was learn to detail cars. Superb video, I'll subscribe and watch more.
Absolutely brilliant, the finish is Stunning, and I will be honest, at the beginning of this video, I did not think that you would of got rid of those underlying scratches within the paintwork...
But you did, and I take my hat off to you, unbelievable....
And I will also say that I throughly enjoyed watching this, thank you.....
Wow, the proof that you are a true professional with a passion to provide a service that is second to none despite the difficulties.
Great job Jim, and what a nice car. Takes me back, right back 1988 and being 17 cleaning next doors Escort xr3i in mercury grey for £10 and my mums flat black MG Metro Turbo!! Happy days, fairy liquid soap in one bucket with a sponge!, turtle wax paste, Autoglym Glass polish blue thick plastic marking glass cleaner. Armarol dash gloss! polish or Mr Sheen and finish the wheels off with four good lungs full of back to black aerosol spray.
Yesterday I was 50. Flip me, the past 33 years seem and feel have gone by in a flash.
Cheers
I saved watching this video for the first day of my hols. Jim, as I mentioned on your insta post it is been a pleasure to watch you breathe life back into my motoring heritage. I have been cleaning and now detailing cars for 40 years and you are simply he best. Every day is a learning day -thanQ
I had one with 48k miles on it in 2005ish that I paid a LOT for, miss it some times but they are better to look at these days. I daily'd mine thru the summer months and stored it all winter. I got my enjoyment out it but it was a sweat inducing procedure to leave it parked anywhere. Only car I won a trophy with too, started me with detailing and many years later this channel so seeing you do one of these makes me nostalgic. And I'm only 37 lol
Fantastic detail and so much TLC for this rare beauty. What a stunner now. Really great work.
Amazing work on this little classic, had a 79 RS 2000 in my day. Wish I had that today. Thanks Jim.
Great to see a true master at work. What a result.
That was a fabulous job. Thanks for sharing it with us. 👍
Brings back memories, had 2 of these. You could of taken out the bonnet vents to polish, just a couple of screws
Great work young man
Hi Jim I'm glad you carried on doing this after last year and you saying you fancied a change etc etc it's good to see you back and you're a master at your class. Very inspiring and as always superb work transformation is awesome someone will be very happy taking that to the next show. All the best mate long may you continue doing this Jules in Notts
Amazing results. Said to myself I’d just skip to the end and see how it came out....but ended up watching the whole video!!!
Great content as always. 👍🏻
Had one of these in Gunmetal Grey in the early 90ies. Great trip down memory lane watching this, amazing result Jim 😎
I had a XR3 for many years when i was a lot younger, also a 1600e Cortina. Really enjoyed both cars.
Hi Jim, I’ve been enjoying watching your work for a couple of years, it’s overdue that we should give a little back. So keep up the good fight and I’ll throw in whenever I can.
Sir Jim you are a detailing wizard ! Until just recently I owned a Mercury grey version of the same car ! 20,000 mile 3 owner ! Thank you for bringing back so many happy memories 💖
Outstanding work Jim. I bet the customer was blown away.👍🔥
Wow mr Henry Ford would be proud of that 😂 great work there Jim 👍🏻👍🏻🔥🔥
I don't know what to say. You are the reference standard for all detailers. I have not seen anyone who gets close to you. Just bought you a coffee to show my appreciation.
That’s cleaner than the one I owned with 8k on the clock 29 yrs ago 😮 Great job 👌
Always a great end to an evening with White Details. Looks superb Jim 🤗😍🔥
I had to come see again the show off part of this vehicle... Stunning!!
Absolutely top notch Jim great work
This one is really unbelievable result. I have no word strong enough to describe how good your work is. I could watch your videos all day long.
Highest standard of detailing there is. incredible workmanship 👏🏼
Huge soft spot for the Fast Fords of this era. I would love to see you wet sand something like that.
Wow ! Just .... Wow! The rougher they are, the better they look when it comes to the White Detail. So good to see another vlog and boy was this a looker! Thanks Jim !
Jim. One of, if not , the best , jobs you have done given the age and delicacy of the paint. A true artisan. Brilliant
Hi Jim, another great case study, I am a BMW fan my self but it was fantastic to see an old school ford on the channel. In fact I was on my lap top when I seen this and had to go to the living room to watch this on the big screen! Well done for taking on the challenge with regards to the combo of the car and colour. Love all the lines on that car and it makes a nice difference to see this rather than the regular modern day machinery that's on. Keep up the great work, another like and all the best until the next one!
I honestly had no idea anyone valued Ford Escorts, but nor was I aware Ford made an RS Turbo version. The Ford Escorts I remember are from my highschool's parking lot 20 years ago that were well on their way to the scrap yard.
I have two.. one absolutely mint the other needs a bit of work. Worth a good bit of money now though.
If you have a minter series 1 RS the are going for about 25-30k
Outstanding work, the values of these in average condition is strong, but this level of work has easily added over 25% on saleable value. Money well spent, especially when done to such a standard. Well done Jim!!
Roof gutters! who remembers those LOL ! cracking work on the front bumper fella
Jim, my first reaction was 'wow, I am astonished at how well this RS has come out', but taking a minute to absorb what I've just watched, I shouldn't be surprised at all... The effort, time, skill and dedication you have put into this project, and the final results, are a benchmark for all detailers everywhere. You are my new favourite detailer (along with the likes of Paul Dalton and Kelly Harris) and I cannot wait until the next video.
As far as I'm concerned, White Details is the very definition of car care. Keep up the excellent work, you are an inspiration sir.
Yes!!!, this car is the one, great work 👌
I remember a friend having an identical one of these on a D plate in 1992, they were expensive cars then, very desirable and if the car wasn’t stolen the wheels soon were, so also expensive to insure.
It’s also interesting thinking back to non power assisted steering as you didn’t think anything of it at the time, that era of more modern appearing cars seemingly felt particularly light in any case and very responsive once on the move.
I enjoyed your video as I have most of your awesome work, thanks and best wishes.
Even at 85% to 90%, I have no doubt that it did not look this good when the first owner drove it off the dealers lot. As always, #detailingthewhiteway is the premier way to have your car done. Excellent as always, Jim!
What a job Jim!!!
My Aunt brought a F Reg RS identical to this from Mark Hughes ( x Man U player ) many years ago and as a young lad it was the dream car ...absolutely amazing work here Jim 👌🏽 best video so far in my opinion
Best looking Escort I've ever seen. Great work as always Jim!
Jim, your patience is inspiring. The quality of work you produce is outstanding.
Brought back memories for me. I done over 200k in mine over 13 years and I loved every mile. Nice work Jim.
I watched this all the way through last night (best Saturday night tv I’ve seen in years!) and I’m still in awe at the incredible job you did on the Ford Jim. Blown away!!!
Such an incredible art. So very therapeutic to watch you do your thing
That was just astonishing!!
Incredible work, brother
Oh man this car was best you could have in Brazil in the 90’s 🔥
Amazing to look back and see drum brakes on the rear, front discs the size of ten pence pieces and a steering wheel the same as the base model escort on this range topping performance escort... oh how times have changed!
Amazing attitude and attention to detail. Superb correction. Massive well done 👏
Looks absolutely amazing
An outstanding detail.........and one of the best episodes in a long time! My boss had a brand new Mercury Grey RS Turbo and she let me drive it a couple of times. Back then, I had my second car, a Mk3 Escort 1.3 Ghia, so the RS Turbo was a rocket ship in comparison, although I do vividly recall the heavy steering an awful torque steer. Happy memories!
I had a flat black Ford Sierra from -88. The paint got scratches if you just looked at it wrong. Great job! 👍
Stunning work Jim - you have excelled yourself with this one! Seeing this transformation on an 'older' car (as opposed to the majority of work you do with the modern super-cars) has only reinforced my belief that I would like you to perform a White Detail on my 2009 SAAB 9-3 Convertible. Will be in touch soon!!
Love love love the super long videos !!! Thanks Jim !
