Please do tell us what products that you used. I would love to know how you really brought out the depth and wetness in the paint.

Join Date: Jul 2002 Location: Wakefield, MA Posts: 1,619 | I only took a couple befeore pictures of the car but it was an overcast day so you can't really tell how dirty it was. Here's a before pic of the outside & one of the motor: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y29...iDetail001.jpg , http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y29...iDetail006.jpg .
The car was in decent shape to begin with, but definitely needed a good detail. There were tons of bugs on the 3M protection on the front and was never waxed the entire time the guy has owned it. The car has never been touched with a hose. He only used QD on the car the entire time he owned it so the paint didn't have any real depth to it.
My process: I clayed it with Pinnacle poly clay, one coat of Klasse AIO followed by Meguiars #7 show car glaze and a layer each of Souveran and P21S. It was a very overcast day, so the pictures didn't come out as great as I thought they would. Here's a couple after pictures of the engine compartment. I decided to apply #7 to the painted surfaces in the engine compartment which worked pretty well. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y29...iDetail022.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y29...iDetail024.jpg

And to think I only found out a few weeks ago that its pronounced " Mah-den-ah", not " Moh-day-nah"  .

Some people pronounce it "Porsh" and others say "Por-sha" | |

That's a beautiful Modena.
"I clayed it with Pinnacle poly clay, one coat of Klasse AIO followed by Meguiars #7 show car glaze and a layer each of Souveran and P21S."
Love the process as well. P21S and Souveran are my 2 favorite waxes.
