Porsche 993TT revisited

[RyanDe680]

My customer with the awesome 993TT asked me to come down and take a look at the car.



Since the Audi is in the shop for some warranty work, he uses the Porsche as his DD temporarily.



While driving on I-55 to the Dan Ryan (I-94), something splattered up on to the car and adhere'd to the surface. He tried a few washes, no luck in getting it off. So I went to go down to take a look at it this past weekend.



Here's a pic of the spots that were all over the car:

They were not raised on the surface, so I figured a polish would remove them.



here's the condition of the car now that it was a temporary DD:

So I washed it down, pulled it in and put the lights on it just to see what the washes had done to the paint:

This was the condition of the car all over. The hood was worse because of several attempts to remove the spots...



So this time, I tried combining some polishes to see what I can come up with to make my polishing time easier.



End results:

Spots removed:

And back out in the cloudiness :wall:

I gave it thumbs up

Anyway, I like working on this car and it sounds awesome. I can only imagine it on the track...

Looks great again Ryan!



Did you use 106ff again?

Thanks Bryan



I used your advice from last time... I know you and Scott both suggested mixing the 106ff with some RMG, which I did. I even added in a tad VM and it worked incredibly.



I do like the extended working time and less dusting. Made a clear difference.



Thank you for the tip. I owe these results to you. I had a nice grin on my face after checking it out on the first panel.... :up

That is only after 106FF/RMG? VERY impressive.

Ryan, Glad I could help. I think either Scott or RAG came up with the mix. Its been awhile so I can't remember. If you are applying a carnuba for a LSP, its the way to go for sure.

that is some mighty fine correction work. do you happen to know what that stuff on the hood was?

Solid black Porsche paint is pretty soft. You can achieve excellent levels of correction with lighter polishes on it.



Beautiful work, Ryan! The paint looks very deep and black.



Honestly, I am not sure who came up with the 106FF/RMG combo but I know a good idea when I steal it! :grinno:
