Beauty of a car and spec. Not corners cut there starting with you giving it your treatment.

Did the owner/leasee of this new Macan ask for this vehicle NOT to be dealer-prepped upon buyer/leasee pick-up with the knowledge that it would be detailed by you, OR were you instrumental in the owner/leasee making that decision??

Seems like a dumb question (DAH, Captain Obvious, coming from you...) but do you prefer to work on brand-new, un-prepped vehicles like this?
I ask because MOST new vehicles undergo SOME type dealer-prep and many Autopians and professional detailers are well aware of the "problems" associated with dealer-prepped vehicles.

How much McKee`s37 Tarminator did you go through and what areas of this particular vehicle had a lot of adhesive on it? I assume this is from assembly processes, seeing how modern, space-age adhesives are now the norm in securing materials and panels together in today`s vehicle assembly manufacturing. Were/are there any types of adhesives that present a problem or difficulty in removal?

Excellent detailing workmanship on this "Grey Ghost".

I do have to commend you on posting vehicle specs and such on these unique, high-performance vehicles. I say that because I no longer receive any printed car magazines, as most have gone to on-line digital formats out of economic necessity or ceased publication completely. I used to spend hundreds of dollars on such hard-copy glossy paper magazines subscriptions and that was my "other hobby" reading through the specs and reviews, and of course, looking at the photos. Not any more! I am quite new-car illiterate now, so your`s and Merlin`s posting and pics are some of the few opportunities I get to see such newer vehicles. Thanks for doing that!!!

Sometimes, as they are often times `easier` to correct, however it really doesn`t matter to me, I like `seeing` some results as I go!!

Were/are there any types of adhesives that present a problem or difficulty in removal? Not a lot. Just some on a MF. Exterior panels had some adhesive residue from the `wrapper` as well as the interior glass and some trim had some on it as well.

I still get printed magazines as I like them much better than online publications. I also prefer actual paper books when I have an opportunity to read one!

Thanks again, and I am happy that my posts receive such wonderful replies/comments/questions as well as keeping you `in the loop` on new vehicle specs!
