Handz Detailed: 2008 Dodge Charger SRT8 "TorRed" *Mega WriteUp*

[Handz]

The Owner contacted me Via Local Car Forum. The car had 6,000 miles on the clock and he had just bought the car not that long ago. The car had some pretty bad swirls and some water spots with some etching. The owner originally was scheduled for a 1 step paint but i knew the paint needed more than that so I made the owner a good deal on a Full paint correction job.



This end Result was Great!!! Just Perfect!!! That Red/Orange paint just looked amazing when all the defects were removed.



Car was started Wednesday night and finishing Friday night.

Awesome job. I am sure the owner was blown away and happy he went with the full correction :)

[Handz]

Yeah, the owner was really happy.



The owner took the car to a show the day after pick up. He said he got alot of complements on how clean the car was and his car is pretty stock.

[Barry Theal]

Great work man and excellant pictures. The car looks incredible. Im just surprised with that much quality you actually wrote your name in the wax with a finger? I would be worried about marring that nice finish you left down. Very nice. I have been admiring your photo skills since you started posting more.

[Handz]

Thanks alot barry!!!



Yeah, i was concerned about the finger deal... But I actually wrote the name with Cobra MF gloves while i was taking off the glaze.

[Barry Theal]

ok well I guess thats ok then!! lol great work.
