Titanium Ferrari 360 Spider

This car is a 2004 with only 800 miles on it. It has been sitting in the showroom for quite a while collecting dust so I decided to give an exterior detail when it was pouring rain a couple weeks ago. It didn't require any buffing so it was a pleasurable detail. I decided to use my new Jeff's Werkstatt products.

My process:

Washed complete exterior, wheels & engine compartment

Jeff's Werkstatt Prime by hand to complete exterior & wheels

Acrylic Jett x2 by hand

Wiped down exterior with Acrylic Glos and a microfiber towel to remove any haze left over from the AJ

Dressed tires & wheel wells with Super Blue dressing

Here are the results:

These 2 pictures really show off the metallic flake in the paint. In person it looks 5 times better. My camera doesn't show off the flake like it looks like in person.
