Black 911

Not 100% swirl free.

I detailed this car last december. The paint is pretty soft and you can see what washing did to the paint. The owner s taking the car to a show this sunday and wanted it detailed. He asked me to vacuum the interior but insead I detailed it. No pictures sorry. I'll take some at the show.

CG extreme coat pc blue propel pad
NL x2 om tires

Re: Black 911

Very nice work....I always do those little extra things when working on clients cars. IE ifI did a total interior job on a car I'll usually give it a quick wash afterwords....And vise versa on the exterior....
