Hey everyone.
This 1995 Porsche Carrera has seen three different owners in its lifetime. The gentleman that currently owns it came into my store looking for some good detailing products. He invited me outside to take a look at the car so I could give him a judgement call. I decided to offer him my services. Told him the process of obtaining a swirl, and defect free finish. I also told him that i've only had a few PC details under my belt, and I would do my best, but things didn't look to bad.
He called me about a month later, and I have no clue what happened to this car during that month. He must of tried washing it with a brush at the car wash or something in the mean time. Things looked OK under the sun, but once I busted out the halogens things quickly got ugly.
Took some quick pics outside to see what I was dealing with.
Decided to pull the Porsche into my garage and take a better look at things. Take note of the dirty wheel wells, and brake dust build up on the wheels. Also the paint is a bit oxidized.
And finally under the halogens
The wheels and tires were battered and worn. Wheels had all sorts of rock chips, and curbing on them. Not to mention it looked like no one has cleaned the wheel in such a long time.
First up I washed the car with Meguiars NXT Wash. Next I attacked the wheels with some Eagle One A2Z, agitated with a Meguiars wheel cleaning brush.
After I was done with that I dressed the wheel wells with some ArmorAll original tire foam.
