997 Porsche Turbo correction

Today's work, up in Napa Valley where my blood pressure goes down everytime I am up there for work or pleasure!!

This car I did new a year and half ago and the owner keeps it up real nice, but there was wash induced marring and of course my favorite(hard water spots on the clear bra CRAP!!)

Spent a little over 8 hours total, took my time as it was humid and hot (for california) compounded with 105 w/GI fast cut foam, then on to Menz PO85RD finishing with CG wet mirror glaze. The biggest change was using Blackfire as my LSP and so far this stuff rocks(which is old news to those who already use this stuff)

Marring but not real bad







Dirty engine



Cleaness



The results of my labor













Interior pics





All put away



One last shot which is my favorite

Great work Bob!!!! I love Porsches!

It must have been nice to get away from the shop? I know I enjoy when I have to go on a venture.

Depends Barry, some mobile jobs are a grind and I have to take my time when putting the gear in the truck so as not to forget anything also cannot take my big fan(will not fit in the truck) and I needed it badly yesterday(have a little fan that sits on my desk which is okay.......).

Honestly...... the best thing about the shop is a bathroom I can use whenever I want.

Re: 997 Porsche Turbo correction

Thanks Pat for the kudos, and I hooked up to the house water source with my CR Spotless.

Re: 997 Porsche Turbo correction

Great Job Bob, i was working in Livermore last Saturday, the humidity and heat was so bad that I couldn't use M105 at all, it would cake and dry up by the 2nd pass, and would be a pain to take off. You have the V2 correct?

I have both, and the 32oz bottle I just bought is the original.
