Another Black 997 Porsche (Sun Pics)

This was a Porsche with some light marring so I did a 2 step polishing process. First step, rotary with a finishing pad and OCP and then used my Cyclo again with OCP and 2X OCW.

Light interior cleaning also.

















































Thanks,
Anthony

Sweet!

Rotary with a finishing pad + OCP? Which finishing pad? Why did you have to hit it with the cyclo afterwards?

Thank you Merci and Greg.

I used a white finishing pad, 100 ppi at around 1200 rpm's. I used the Cyclo with Lake Country Blue pads to clean up any fine buffing swirls. I gave it 2 coats of OCP because of some smears I got on the paint because of sweat....man it was humid today in South Texas!!

Thanks again,
Anthony

Typically superb work, Anthony!

BTW, aren't those Carrera S/4 wheels a PITA to clean? 5 spokes are great, but what's the deal with all those holes in 'em?

Anthony,

You make Porsche's look sooo deep, wet, and reflective! When I get mine, I will definitely call you!

Keep up the great work!


Cheers,
