S600, Cayman, Z06, Charger, M6

EBPcivicsi

GOT PREP?
It’s been awhile since I have posted any of the cars that we have worked on so I thought that I would put together a post. It’s really hard to document details properly when you are busy (thank goodness we are busy), but I tried to take a few pics here and there.



First up was a brand new s600—factory holograms, dealer-induced marring, etc. We cleaned most things up with 3M UF, then sealed with two coats of collinite 476s.

Next up was a Porsche Cayman—brand new and full of wax in *every* crevice, molding, etc. This car also had buffer trails all over the hood.



We repaired the finish with the following:



SIP @1500/green CCS pad

PO106FF/PC/white LC LP pad

Sealed with Collinite 845

Sorry about the afters—I didn’t have time to take direct shots. We detailed this car on a busy Saturday, so time just didn’t allow for in-depth documentation.

This Maxima came to us about two months ago for a full detail and we have maintained it ever since.



This is after a wash…

This Z06 was brand new, but the dealer prepped it and we all know what that means! It had some very deep RIDS and a nice dose of marring allover—we repaired it the following:



Meguiars #105/green CCS pad/1500 RPM’s

3M UF SE/PC/white LC LP pad

Sealed with Collinite 845

This Charger was originally detailed last year for the Dub show-we spent quite a few hours making her perfect. This year for the show he added the new 24� rollers, as well a few swirls! The paint was rock hard and we really had to work it to remove the marring.



M105/twisted wool/1700 RPM’s

SIP/green CCs pad/1500 RPM’s

PO106FF/PC/white LC Lp pad

Sealed with Meguiars #26

This M6 was really in rough shape�not much in the way of marring as it never gets washed, but the interior was filthy, the wheels were horrible, and it came in on flats.



The outside needed light polishing which we took care of with Optimum poli-seal, followed by Meguiars #21.



The interior was steamed, shampooed, extracted, etc.



We also got the guy a new set of feet and had the wheels repaired. :D

This was the clay after ¼ of the hood:

Wow, great recovery on all of them.



Do you work for a shop or something? Besided the nice rides you were detailing I saw some sweet rides in the background as well.



Again nice work.
 
Looks incredible. That Collinite really has a nice glow on the Cayman and Z06. I don't understand why someone would care enough to buy the M5 over a regular 5 series if they are going to let it get into that kind of shape.
 
Great work as always Joe!



It appears that the UF got rid of the defects on the hard ceramiclear S600.



That M5 light interior looks worse then the 645ci I did with a light interior color.
 
[Insert usual :bow regarding ebpcivicsi's work]



Nice to see the Collinite is still working out so well for you. Gotta watch the 476S around the PPF...gee, guess why *that* came to my mind :o



Heh heh, bet you wish you'd had that M105 for a certain Denali XL, huh?

I could have cut my time in half! :D



The Collinite works so well that I have hard time using up my other stock of "stuff."
