So one day I feel like stopping by the local Porsche dealership to talk...I let him know what I do, how I can help with certain customers etc....



The owner was a little upset that I came and "attacked" what his detail department does, and the work they put out. I left after he was starting to get irritated...oh well.



Two days later, a phone call from guess who? Porsche detail department "detailed" this vehicle for the owner because the Service Dept. had it a few days longer than expected...and the owner was getting heated. I told them the price, and they told me when it needed to be done by...



2006 Porsche Carerra 997



106ff@1200rpm w/CCS white

Z-PC@1200rpm w/CCS white (certain areas - doors - bumpers liked Z-PC)

Clearkote CMW @ 4 via PC w/CCS red

Nice and smooth, Martin. Did that guy apologize for being a jerk after seeing your quality work compared to their mess?

Good job. Yeah, I`m wondering if you got a mea culpa from the owner. I`m guessing "no".



But more importantly, was the car owner pleased?

They really should hire competent people to do detail work on cars of such caliber.



Great job!

The Porsche detail department did this... What a joke.

Great turnaround though.... Flawless.

Thanks for the comments everyone.



I polished the clear bra area as well. It cleared up right away, just have to be careful around the edges with polish getting stuck in the cracks :)

Awesome work Martin! Which dealership? Guessing Leith Porsche.



Take it worth a grain of salt, but I would strictly just stay contracted out. Gosh I wish I could Detail. TVP Auto probably did the install.
