Owner just got this car a few months ago. He attempted to detail it himself with a cheap orbital and did some damage to the paint particularly the edges, but no problem :xyxthumbs , this is where I come in. He wanted everything perfect, he said for the amount of money he spent on the car, he wanted it done right. So here was the process we agreed on.



Wash w/ Chemical Guys Wash + Gloss. Wheels weren`t bad, so just a foam and scrub with my brushes did the trick.

After the wash and dry phase, I pulled the car in, taped and prep`d her for polishing.

Here are some Before and After`s. Process was SIP @ 1700 via Orange LC Pad followed by 106fa via Blue LC Pad. Both done with my makita rotary.

After foaming her one more time to rid of dust and oils, I dried her then sealed her with JetSeal topped with Souveran.

holy reflections! I`m guessing the jetseal gave it that look? I know souveran is good on black but this finish looks like it`s owed to to the jetseal. nice and crisp.



bet the owner was stoked.

Nooo! Its always the LSP, polishing accounts for 3-4% of the final look!



Yep that car looks mint right in the sun, excellent work!
