997TT Correction

I've had hardly any time to post my click&brags lately, been very busy. I felt this car was worthy of a posting.

I had the opportunity to perform a correction on this 2007 Porsche 997TT. Absolutely stunning car in black. It was a very challenging detail even though the swirling/marring wasn't too bad. The paint on these Porsche's is insanely soft and even applying too much pressure on a microfiber can mar it. The hips and rear on these cars tend to get beat up a bit more than the other areas, so special attention was paid to them.

The owner was very accommodating and was a true car enthusiast, a pleasure to work for him! There were thunderstorms and HEAVY rain the whole time I was there, it finally ended when I finished. It was still rather cloudy, so no sun shots

Process is as follows:
ONR Wash
Clay
Wheels/Wells cleaned dressed with Megs NXT
Entire vehicle taped off
Optimum Compound/Orange Pad/Flex
Menzerna IP/Orange/White Pad/Flex
Menzerna 106ff/White/Black Pad/Flex
Danase Wet Glaze/Green Pad/Flex
P21s 100% by hand

A few during and afters:


























Thanks for looking!
