posting only the details with major correction. too busy with work. unless yall want me to post 1step polishes, new car preps, wash/wax details (which are boring). coming up to the plate was now my 10th black car in a row. Vehicles history, owner had it for 5 years and kept it cleaned and garaged kept (only 22k miles). he hasnt driven it in about a year. before storing in the garage, he had it detailed by a "pro detail" shop :facepalm: I found lots of residue in cracks, jambs, etc. Mind you, this guy is very particular about all his cars. As the go to detailer in my area for the local car clubs, i had to treat his NSX as i do with all cars, like its mine and also to keep my reputation. He wanted it to be prepped for a show and i took on the job. my initial response was about a day and half for the detail since he said it was previously detailed and it hasnt been driving in 9 months so i said itll be an easy one. i was wrong. on to the detail.

If this aint 100% corrected, its sure da mn close!
lets ask the sungod. (those arent trails, just weird reflections)
Fingernail deep RIDs that i couldnt get out. now if it this was on the paint yeah, i could fix it but i wasnt going to grit it just for that. but trust me, the rest of the taillight strip is perfect
precaution i take when someone has the wheels i want. i just cover it so i wont be tempted to steal it.
