At the end of the winter season, a Swiss mountain-tour operator asked AVP to clean and prepare its fleet of five quad bikes. Snow residue, salt and mud needed to be removed before storage and technical setup.

After the two-and-a-half-hour journey, the team divided into washing, polishing and protection groups so each vehicle could move through a clear sequence.

Quad bikes are not simply small cars. Their limited bodywork leaves electrical and mechanical components more exposed, so pressure, water direction and product choice must follow the manufacturer's guidance.

Lightly soiled painted areas could be treated with a controlled waterless product, while heavy mud required rinsing and washing. Sensitive components were protected and never flooded for the sake of speed.

Once clean and dry, the painted surfaces were assessed for polishing. Machine access was limited, so the team combined local machine work with hand polishing. Stronger correction was used only where the finish supported it, followed by a finer stage.

The final protection was applied by hand to compatible painted areas. Expected durability depends on use, winter exposure and maintenance, so the system should be inspected before each season rather than assumed to last a fixed number of years.

Two team members checked every completed quad under direct LED lighting. The fleet was finished by late afternoon and returned ready for the operator's maintenance and storage process.
