I'll add my $.02 as well..beautiful job!! Will this lead to some jobs from the dealership for you? It bloody well should when they see how it could/should be done!

very nice work? just like everyone said ill bet the people there felt pretty dumb when you came in and showed everyone up. how long have you been using ultrafina SE? and how would you say it compares to presta polishes?
Good job again looks amazing

WOW x 2!!!!!! Too bad the dealer didn't get a chance to see your work. Then you could show him what dealer prep "should" look like. BEAUTIFUL WORK BRYAN!

Excellent reversal of a dealer vandalization free-option package.

Is P1500 a Presta polish?

Wish I could of got it done before all the managers went home, but not worth hurring a job like this.

Thanks Red! The detailer that was there said something to the effect of, "That guy is not here." Not sure if he ment on a permanent basis or what....

It looks great now.

I'm surprised you felt the need for 3M ultra-fine after 106FF. What was the reasoning? Did you see something you didn't like?

Thanks JJ! I was actually having some issues using 106ff on this soft clear. With a white CCS pad it was "binding up" on the paint. You could actually feel and hear the metabo slowing down. This also seems to create more heat. I saw the same thing happen with this combo on the black F430 that Todd and I detailed down in FL. From what Ryan thinks the sharp abrasives are actually biting into the soft clear before they are broken down. So I will make sure I have some IP and FPII with me on the next "soft clear car" I polish. Back to your question, I just wanted to ensure the paint was hologram free. On something like a vette, I like the 106ff/white as the clear is so hard it just does not matter with the rotary.

Thanks Jean Paul! The owner wanted it done right, so I did the best I could.

Thank you! It was not a big deal at all. I was a bit at first. But I figured if you are polite to folks they will usually do the same.

Thanks for your thoughtful words Angelo!

Thanks WL! I think this is the 3rd car I have used UF on. I can't compare it as I never really used any of the presta polishes to finish with.

Done the way it should have been in the first place. Beautiful work, just stunning. Whoever was responsible for letting that car get out the way it looked before should be horsewhipped then fired. It's a Porsche not a Pinto for cryin' out loud.

[Greg Nichols]

WOW Bryan!

You even fixed this cars paint in the den of the adversary.........I bet you will be hearing from the dealer about other cars to fix in "his shop". That is almost like a kick in the jewels to them

Cheers,

[Jek Hawkins]

HOLY FREAK, AMAZING WORK, that is IMPRESSIVE!

[Gen2]

That is an excellent transformation and great job as always. The porsche looks extremely wet and deep, I believe it will look awesome in the sun. Lately with all the discussion on the UF and seeing this wonderful result, I think I will be picking up a bottle soon to give it a try .

[z06meister]

Nice work Bryan.

How did you get involved in fixing the car?

[Garrison]

This is awesome. I always expect great "after" pictures, but this one blew me away!

While I hope the dealership offers you a lot of work, I also hope the client made the dealership pay you for fixing their screw up, and pay you well!!

Great job!
