Did this car a little while ago and just now getting some time to post it up. Owner brought this in as a basically brand new car with hardly any miles on it. After having key parts wrapped in satin vinyl and getting clear bra installed on the front end, the task was to fully correct the paint and permanently protect it with Optimum Opti-Guard. The paint, plastics, wheels, and lights would all be coated with Opti-Guard and the glass would be coated with CQuartz.
About 20 hours altogether.
Upon arrival
Swirls on the A-pillar
Swirls and RIDS (Random Isolated Deep Scratches) seen on the hood
Some swirls in the clear film that would require some correction
Spraying the wheels down with Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner, a pH balanced cleaner safe for all wheel types.
The Mini Daytona Speedmaster Wheel Brush getting the wheel barrels nice and clean.
Inner barrels looking great
Foaming the car with a mix of Dawn and APC
Using the Swissvax detail brush to clean up the hard to reach areas
Washed, clayed, and ready for taping
Some cars need just a little taping and some need a lot.....this was the latter.
Sorting out the A-Piller
The C-Pillars required extensive correction
....other side
One more to go
Correction completed on the roof
Lots more taping for correcting the rest of the paint.
