A special Gallardo Superleggera...

I think this is my favorite pic. I love seeing that you didn`t cut any corners and took the time to mask off all of those areas. Amazing job on black paint nonetheless!

Thank you so much! I may be a LITTLE OCD about taping, all right, but it seems to work okay for me. Thanks, Vega!

Looks great, Allan!

Where are you located? Noticed you mentioned Calgary... my home. :)

Edit: Just noticed the Sask plates.

Thanks! Yep, I am from a small city south of Regina. Cars like this one sure do turn a LOT of heads, here. :)
 
Outstanding result! No matter how you cut it, (no pun intended) black paint is always a "part time job" if you want it to pop. Nothing nicer than perfected black finish!

Thanks! Unfortunately, I`d have to agree. To some extent, there are some exotics owners that have more money than sense,

I have a customer who drove his new black Porsche all winter here in Mass. Its a mess right now.

Thanks!! I couldn`t agree more - black paint is special. the black on this car (Nero Noctis - I believe, also called "Brilliant Black" on Audis), is so mar-prone, it`s frightening. My wife and I haven`t bought anything BUT black cars since 2000. I must be a glutton for punishment, hahaha

Winters are so harsh here, too. I have done it (driving a black car through a Canadian winter) and still do it, but it requires SO much care, to minimize damage. Call it a labour of love :)

Great job! The before condition was horrendous . Still waiting for the day I get my hands on one to polish up.

Thanks so much! It was a challenge, but I enjoyed every minute of it. Best of all, was the owner`s satisfaction. Can`t beat that. :) I do consider myself very fortunate to have friends with such cars, and better still, them allowing me to detail them!
