Today I had the pleasure of working on a 2008 Infiniti G37S owned by a dentist in Dayton. He got to the house around 9:30 this morning and we promptly did a thorough walk-around to inspect the car. The car was bought used with ~2000 miles on it and wasn't in bad shape at all (compared to some I've seen). There was a lot of auto-wash induced swirling, hairline scratches, a few places where bird crap etched through the clear coat, but all in all it wasn't bad. This was a full correction and exterior only.

Cool shot showing the grey, blues, etc.
This car can look VERY blue
Began to rain right when we finished, still looked awesome though!!!
All in all, this color is GORGEOUS. I wasn't expecting much, but when we were all done, it looked outstanding! The owner stayed at the house and hung out, learned some stuff, and helped me out a bit and I enjoyed the company. Hopefully he learned a bit as well! Thanks for looking!!
