2007 Black Porsche Carrera S

That is an excellent transformation and great job as always. The porsche looks extremely wet and deep, I believe it will look awesome in the sun. Lately with all the discussion on the UF and seeing this wonderful result, I think I will be picking up a bottle soon to give it a try ;) .
 
This is awesome. I always expect great "after" pictures, but this one blew me away!



While I hope the dealership offers you a lot of work, I also hope the client made the dealership pay you for fixing their screw up, and pay you well!!



Great job!
 
Great work. Don't you just love correcting a car at the dealership right there in front of there own people. I had a similar experience and was detailing right next to there so called "detailing department".. ha They were looking at me like huh??



Those pics are awesome too.

Done the way it should have been in the first place. Beautiful work, just stunning. Whoever was responsible for letting that car get out the way it looked before should be horsewhipped then fired. It's a Porsche not a Pinto for cryin' out loud.



Thanks Rtx!

WOW Bryan!



You even fixed this cars paint in the den of the adversary.........I bet you will be hearing from the dealer about other cars to fix in "his shop". That is almost like a kick in the jewels to them:woot:



Cheers,



Thanks Greg!

How did you get involved in fixing the car?



Thanks Z06! I believe the client saw some of my work here.

Thanks Garrison! I am pretty sure everybody walked away happy after this one. Of course the client being happy is the most important part.

Looks great Bryan. Didn't you post this one before or was that something else?



Thanks Lee! First time that this car was posted here. Just did the detail 10 days ago.
 
Just wanted to compliment you on an awesome job.

Wet and deep. Looks awesome.



Wish we could have seen some sun pics though :cool:



Again, great work.
 
Really great looking detail job. Did you take some close up after shots of the areas with the fine scratches shown in the before pictures?

Thanks!



Was dark out when I got done after 7pm and the client needed to get back to Charlotte. So only time for a few pics.

Thanks JJ! I was actually having some issues using 106ff on this soft clear. With a white CCS pad it was "binding up" on the paint. You could actually feel and hear the metabo slowing down. This also seems to create more heat. I saw the same thing happen with this combo on the black F430 that Todd and I detailed down in FL. From what Ryan thinks the sharp abrasives are actually biting into the soft clear before they are broken down. So I will make sure I have some IP and FPII with me on the next "soft clear car" I polish. Back to your question, I just wanted to ensure the paint was hologram free. On something like a vette, I like the 106ff/white as the clear is so hard it just does not matter with the rotary.



I've never had this happen with 106ff before, but I've had it happen alot of times with SIP. The last time it happened, I went over the car with an IPA wipedown. That did the trick. SIP worked well and without one "binding" from then on. It appears that Menz's ceramiclear polishes are picky about what is on a car... QD residue, previous polishes, LSP traces, etc. It seems to prefer a completely bare surface to really work well on. A grey LC pad seems to work a bit better with 106 on really soft clears.



That car looks a-mazing. I bet the owner was floored.
 
Damn nice job!!!



I can't believe that the car looked like that....brand new from the dealer!! :eek:



Frankly, I don't know that I would have accepted delivery of that car, in that condition.

Thank you! Yes when the owner sent me the pics. I thought maybe it was after a few washes and the glaze washed away and left this mess. The owner said when he questioned the finish of the car at delivery, someone at the dealership told him that was from the sealant that had not dried yet. He had a 4 hour drive back home and did not want to deal with it at the time. But now its all better. :)
