Well this one was a great pleasure to work on. It's not your typical Ferrari red with tan and black interior, although that combo may be best for resell. The color is a charcoal gray color (I forget the official name) and the interior is red with a good deal of carbon fiber throughout.
The red interior sets off the car and while it may have been "questionable" (as the owner stated) on paper and the color swatches it surely works in the flesh.
Paint was covered in halo scrathces with some random buffer trails here and there. After a ONR rinse I taped her off and began my wool rotary treatment using 3M's Extra Cut. I did one area or panel at a time and then gave that area another ONR rinse down.
I do this to keep the dusting, from both product and pad, under control. My next step was a green pad with OP. Then a blue pad with 3M's Ultrafina. I no longer use Menzera so 3M has, for now, replaced it. I also used some Optimum beta samples of things to come.
My last step was Cyclo with UF and then sealed with Opti-Seal.
Sadly I have no outside pictures as it was raining off and on and it also had a full clear bra installed so it had to stay out of the sun and heat for a day.
The engine is beautiful with the chrome and carbon fiber combo. I wiped the engine down with ONR and then wiped on some AIO over the carbon fiber.
I polished the dull exhaust and as much of the chrome as I could with English Custom metal polish.
The interior was given a wipe down, again using ONR, and vacuumed. Not much else needed really. Carbon Fiber was gone over with OID.
Note*- I did use Photoshop to add some contrast to the red interior because my camera made it look orange. It now looks like it does in true color.
Simply love the door panels....
Back of the seats were all carbon fiber
The interior also had this "industrial" feel going on with the visible weld seams and diamond plate style floor boards.
Well thanks for looking,
Anthony
but then once you take in the interior color and walk around it a few times you begin to appreciate the combo and ease into, "Yeah, this really works now!" mode.
