Back again with some interesting pictures and write ups on what I got to get my hands on. A 600hp+ Porsche 911 Turbo w/ 360 Forged wheels. The vehicle was previously "detailed" for $100 something. The owner was also looking for perfection on the paint and it was definitely achievable, only thing is.. this car took me 21 hours to detail because it was horrible.



Initial condition on the wheels

Getting degreased and cleaned

So the owner supposedly told me he paid someone $100 to clay and wax his car. Here`s a brand spanking new piece of fine clay bar. REMEMBER - you only need to clay every 6 months.

After the wash and clay. Looks great right?

I`d like to know about the exhaust too! Great turn around, normally I would fold the clay before it gets that bad.

I remember reading this some time ago but looks like I forgot to comment!

Great looking work and it`s quite disturbing at how horrible "cheap work" really is. Great save - especially on the 911
