911 Turbo

Hello everyone. Here's a light silver 911 Turbo. I forgot my camera-holder for the tripod and the owner was in a bit of a rush, so not so many pictures this time. The weather was crumy as well...rain, rain, and clouds. I was so dumb as I forgot to take pictures of the beautiful brake calipers I spent at least half an hour trying to perfect. Today the vehicle received a light polishing and lots of protection:
-PS via UDM and Sonus DAS green pad
-OS x2, waiting at least half an hour to reapply as suggested by Scottwax
-Tires dressed with Meg's endurance gel
-Wheels cleaned inside and out with S100 gel wheel cleaner and multiple brushes/towels, then clayed. I must say, I have NEVER seen such thick brake dust before...If I own a Porsche, the first thing I'd do is switch to a low-dusting brake pad.
-wheel wells cleaned with PB bug and tar remover
-wheels polished with AIO and a 4-inch yellow-cut pad via UDM, then topped with Optiseal, including calipers
-the front calipers were difficult to clean because of the lack of access compared to the rear, where I can literally put my entire hand between the spoke and caliper and still have room to move around my hand!
-exhaust tips polished with EO wadding goodness and then Optiseal. Once again, no pics...dumb me
-Enough of me...here are my PICS...ENJOY!

Re: 911 Turbo

Nice! Owning a gray car I can say that that looks really good! So you used poli seal followed by two coats of opti seal? Has a very Zaino like gloss...

Re: 911 Turbo

Nice! Very wet look.

Sucks about the weather, been dealing with that crap here since the end of April.
