2007 Black Porsche Carrera S Updated sun pics 12-05-2007

Added some sun pics below

The client lives in Charlotte, but bought a new black 2007 911 here in Atlanta a few months ago.

It must of went something like this...Sir we thought you ordered the following options on your paint. Buffer trails, holograms and swirls.

The client sent me these pics:











The client convinced the dealership to give me access to a detail bay for the day.

So after trying out different combo's on this soft clear such as:

106ff on white pad- seemed to work ok at first but would not get out the deep RIDS.
P1500 on a orange pad-Still not enough cut.

Wash

Blue wool with p1500 metabo 1600
White CCS/106ff/metabo 1500 x2 on some areas.
blue CCS/3M ultra fina/metabo 1500
Z6 wipedown
3x of Z5pro

Tires Z-16


Had one of the guys at the dealership pull it out into the sun to check for buffer trails after polishing, none to be found. I wish I would of had my camera then, but the clock was ticking. Was dark out when I got done and the client needed to get back to Charlotte. So only time for a few pics.











The client was great to work with. He pretty much hung out the entire day, went out to get us lunch/drinks, ect.

Update! The client was kind enough to make some time in his busy schedule to take some sun pics.

New pics:

Awesome correction Bryan! The Porsche is dripping wet!
Is P1500 a Presta polish?

Re: 2007 Black Porsche Carrera S

I would be pissed if I showed-up to a new Porsche and it looked like that.

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?

Re: 2007 Black Porsche Carrera S

That is the correct way to detail a car. Fantastic work Bryan . What did the dealer have to say about the detail ???.

Cheers , Jean Paul

Re: 2007 Black Porsche Carrera S

Maybe the dealer forgot to look at the option list and though that the swirls were wanted. Bryan the Carrera is so wet and the owner had to be floor from your work! Outstanding correction and amazing finish!........
