A pair of black Porsches....

I haven't posted anything in a while, so I figured I would post this pair of Porsches from this weekend. The client contacted me from Autopia, and due to his work schedule, requested we try to work both in for the same weekend. I decided to enlist the help of Chris Michalski. Mike Napoli(Mikenap), also asked if he could tag along, as he has not yet had any experience with soft Porsche paint, and wanted to learn.



Day 1 started with full interior details on both the Cayenne Turbo, and Cayman S. We then washed and clayed the Cayman S, pulled it into the garage and proceeded to do a full correction.

A little dust, but no swirls...

We then pulled it outside to wash after polishing...

We then put it back in the garage and applied Collinite 845. Next, we pulled it back outside. Ther was almost no sun, as it was the end of the day, so I took a couple of shots, knowing we'd be back today to get sun shots...

With the correction done on the Cayman S, we proceeded to finish the day with a wash and clay on the Cayenne Turbo.



Here is Chris rearing his ugly head over the fender of the Cayenne...

We then tucked both P cars in the garage, and called it quits for day 1...
 
Day 2 began with some sun shots on the Cayman S that we corrected on day1...

We then proceeded to correct the Cayenne Turbo...

Here I check the results after my test spot....pretty good...

This spot needed a second round, and Chris represents the west side in the back ground, as I take a picture...

Mike polishing...

Here, Chris polishes the roof of the Cayenne without a ladder. Since he has screwed up growth hormones (that's what the client told him), he doesn't need one...

While they were doing some polishing, I took advantage of taking some photos of the beautiful interior...

We then took some sun shots after we completed the post polishing wash...

Sweet work guys!! Nothing like a nice tag team effort. Chris looks like the Andrea Giant of the detailing world! lol
 
Here are some pictures that I took from the detail this past weekend with David Strum and Mike Napoli. It was great working with Mike



Anywho, on with the pics!

Man, I look like an infant polishing the same panel as Chris. Standing on my toes, with the polisher over my head while he's standing flat and working at shoulder level.:(



Stubby legs aside, I had a blast working with these guys again this weekend. It's awesome having a couple of local detailing gurus willing to let you lend a hand on cars of this caliber. Getting the benefit of their combined experience has already helped me in a couple of situations, and as always, it really is a laugh a minute hanging out with them.



Dave and Chris, have fun this weekend and post some pics up as soon as you can! :grinno:
 
I have to say the work was excellent. All were very professional. I am certainly satisfied with the work. The cars look too god to drive now (they look better than when they came off the showroom floor). I highly recommend them to others. One last thing, it was a good thing I have extra high garage ceilings..Chris may have had a problem working in there.

Thank you Paul for the kind words! And yes, I would like to thank the architect and builders for their thoughtfulness in their construction of the garage :-)
