Recent job completed at the shop this Carrera S was in need of deep cleaning and paint correction, sometimes hard working guys like the client who owns the car will have the maintenance for the appearance get the best of them.

i started with the rear section of the car first as it as the worst marring to deal with.

Factory clearfilm was in sorry shape as well.

During correction.

Thanks guys!!, this was a rough one....I do lot`s of black Porsches but this one had so much damage......... I did not show the pic of the wheels before because I wrote with my finger "Dirty wheel" which I felt might not be a "Good look" lol.

Someone mentioned it looked like it had been to the track...............oh yeah.

Well Bob I`m the kid in eighth grade who got sent looking for the plywood stretcher by our wood shop teacher. 2 stops later after having asked the power mechanics teacher and then being sent to the custodians office, I was informed of my stupidity. Ahhhh memories.
