Detailer's Domain: Rare 993 Turbo/Crystal Rock

[Phil@DetailersDomain]

I had the pleasure on working on another 993 Turbo, this time it was a super rare color I believe the owner from Rennlist said 2xx of these were sold in the world or was it North America, I'll have to check on that again..

The color: Amaranith Violet

Not for everyone but ultra rare!

Paint was corrected and of course the last step was Swissvax Crystal Rock.

I've never seen a Porsche in that color, but it's definitely growing on me. Fantastic job doing it justice. Is the silver 911 in the background next?

[TH0001]

Looks nice, I really like the color.

Looks like a nice 85 percent correction or so, nice job Phil.

[Phil@DetailersDomain]

yup correct I was telling my customer it was about 75% there.

no clear coat on this car so there was some missing paint around the whale tail, door edges etc, he may get it resprayed eventually.

The detail job was fantasic.

But that color,

To paraphrase the Gatekeeper of the Emerald City in the Wizard of Oz...

That's a Porsche of a different color!

Nice work!

[Phil@DetailersDomain]

thanks guys!

[U-piter]

Very nice work,gorgeous car, stunning pictures

[Scottwax]

Excellent job, looks terrific in the after and side by side shots.

I've done one in what I believe is that color. Depending on the lighting, it will look anywhere from a medium blue to a deep violet color. Really cool looking in person.

Nice work Phil.

Car's cool but I dislike the time attack inspired wheel finish.

Well done! If the owner ever wants to sell that car, he could likely get a premium price over in Manhattan, Kansas - that is definitely K-State Purple.
