2007 Porsche Cayman S
This car was in very good condition as the client has asked me to wash it every week since new. Unfortunately, the week before this was detailed, the owner had driven on a road that was just paved. The lower half of the car was littered with road tar. Three and-a-half bottles of solvent and eight hours later, the car was finished.
Bodypro Wash Gel
Meguiars Professional Clay
Dupont Grease & Wax Remover
Klasse AIO
Swissvax Saphir
I had just finished cleaning the paint with Klasse and was about to apply Swissvax when the owner arrived. He thought I was done .

Re: 2007 Porsche Cayman S
Very rich, wet look!
Any chance of some outside shots?

Re: 2007 Porsche Cayman S
No outside shots yet, it was raining when I took those shots and the owner did not want the car moved.
Perhaps when I wash the car next, I may be able to grab some shots  .

Re: 2007 Porsche Cayman S
sorry if this sounds like a noob question.
i thought you were supposed to let the Klasse all in one cure for at least a couple of hours before putting on a wax

Re: 2007 Porsche Cayman S
I think that's more of an issue with Klasse SG. Klasse AIO is a cleaner, polish, and sealant so it needs to be ready right away for a finishing product.

Re: 2007 Porsche Cayman S
Thanks, I've watched that video nearly 20 times now. I've never come across a wax that sheets and beads so nicely.
