A customer sought me out from Fresno(About 180 miles away from me in the Bay Area) after Angelo from TID/PAC and Phil @ DD told him about my service so a thank you to both of you gentlemen.



A particular client who wanted his already very nice car to be refined to a higher level, he wanted the clearfilm removed safely and the car to have the light marring corrected in a few spots so basically make the car look as if it had just rolled off the line @ Genral Motors in Bowling Green.



Removing the film.

After a thorough wash/Decon I set about to remove some dried up wax left behind on the trim.

Another issue was the drivers door jamb/threshold it was damaged during service and had to be re-sprayed, but the shop left sand scratches and compound everywhere along with overspray on the exterior side of the door.

The finish overall was in pretty good shape except for clusters of marring, however the tailights were marred badly.
