Red Ferrari 360 Modena

[Rickrack]

This is a Ferrari 360 Modena which is definitely my favorite car of all times :spot . The owner brings it to me every spring to get it looking good for the summertime. The last time I detailed the car was at the end of last summer, so it was in excellent shape to start with. Although it was in great shape, the paint lacked that deep, wet look that Ferrari red is famous for. When the owner dropped the car off to me, he told me he would like me to use this "special Italian wax" that he had bought. I was thinking it was going to be some junk no-name wax, but to my surprise it wasn`t. When I looked onto the passenger seat I saw a brand new jar of Souveran and just smiled. He asked me not to buff the car because he didn`t feel it needed it so I did it all by hand.



My process:



Washed complete exterior



Cleaned wheels & engine compartment



Removed grease from the bottom panels with Nylon Spotter solvent



AIO by hand on complete exterior & wheels



RMG by hand



Souveran x2 by hand



Dressed tires & wheel wells with Super Blue dressing



Polished Tubi exhaust & tips with Wicked Metal Polish



Meguiars Quick Interior Detailer on interior, quick vacuum & windows

Looks like the owner takes good care of it - nary a mark on it. Excellent work, RMG followed by Souveran = yummy!

[Statman]

That thing is sooooo nice. Great job!

:drool: Modena....



Rick, do you ever get nervous detailing such expensive cars? Or has it become second nature to you?



Looks great!

[Mikeyc]

Rick, great work as always! I`m a big fan of the 360 too although I think I like the new 430 a little better. I would take either though. ;)



Next time that guy comes in make sure you tell him that Soveran is made in the good ol` U-S-A. :) :2thumbs:

Beautiful detail! I wish I could get a hold of one to detail. A ferrari dealer is right down the street from where I live and I seriously would detail one for free so I can have the pics on my website and get referrals!

Nice, now how many times did you have to "move" it for better lighting conditions! LOL

[eric77]

Stunning! That car is amazing (as is your work).

[TGates]

OMG. That`s just beautiful. I can`t imagine walking out from eating dinner and plopping down in that fine leather seat, hearing that Tubi exhaust shriek to life, and drive off down the boulevard. I need to win the lottery.

Wow. Nice job.
