This car was brought to me by S&R Performance here in Tampa, FL. In the end we decided upon a "basic" exterior, 1-stage polish just bring back the luster but not really remove any defect beyond what my polish would do. We also did an interior detail, which I forgot to take afters of
and we are scheduled to do the engine compartment in a couple weeks. The owner came by to check on the car and was very satisfied with the results and we may even be doing a full blown "Presidential" Exterior to this car in a couple months. We also scheduled his Audi S8 while he was there!
First off before we get started, this car was built in AFRICA!!! I must say it is one of the best aftermarket paint jobs I have probably ever seen. There were litterally no flaws in the paint job itself. The flaws I did happen to find were a few spots where it seemed after wet sanding, the body shop did not fully remove all of the scratched from the sand paper. The car also had quite a bit of swirling in it, but it probably hadnt even been washes since it was built! Even though the customer was satisfied with how the car looked, I pointed out the problem areas and he was interested enough to eventually reschedule the car for the full polish job. ENJOY!!! I DID!
