Dealer prepped RX330

[Thomas Dekany]

I detailed this guy`s 944 last summer and recently he picked up this beautiful Lexus. Of course the dealer buffed it out with a wool pad which he didn`t see until next day. Picked the car up at night. Holograms buffer swirls were everywhere. Took me 5 hours.



wash

clay

EC/rotary/yellow ccs pad 1700rpm where needed

OHC/pc/6/orange 7.5 lc pad - entire car

106ff white lc pad pc speed 6 except roof

CG`s Extreme Top Coat green finishing pad pc 3

fk1 3108 on tires/trim



After washing it it doesn`t look too bad does it?

This should show newcomers why claying is so important. Even a wool pad couldn`t remove the contemination



Now this is how the paint REALLY looked.
