2010 Lexus IS-F | Michalski Detailing, LLC & weekendwarrior

[hkross]

I was at the CR Iowa Auto Pro and I saw a product called car tint. It is made by Black Magic. It is a spray on that makes your car shine any one heard of it? And is it safe. I know it will make great deatil job good. But i was thinking of puting it on before i do my first major job of the season.

Got a chance to work on a gorgeous machine with David (weekendwarrior). Davis had corrected this vehicle about 1 year prior, so the paint wasn`t in bad shape. Goal was to chase down the RIDS and wash induced swirls. After the paint was corrected, Opti-Guard was applied to all exterior surfaces, including the wheels.

Enjoy the pix!

Gave the car a wash with DAWN.

The RIDS cleaned up well, except for the deeper ones.

Lookin` good! I really like that color, especially with those carbon accents!

Looking good Chris! That car has some beautiful lines, and it came out crazy glossy. That guy really has a dream garage, those are two of my favorite cars. :clap:

Chris,

Both you and David did an outstanding job on that IS. I would expect nothing less from the two of you. I love that gloss shot.:notworthy:
