2013 S4, Paint Correction and Opti-Coat Pro Coating.


I actually performed the new car prep and applied OCP to this car 7 months ago. Over the last 7 months the owner had brought the vehicle into the tire shop to have the winter wheels put on and also to the dealership to have the ugly “V6T” badges removed and replaced with the nicer “Supercharged” ones….and that’s where things went terribly wrong!!!


All fingers point to the dealer as the guilty party for the damage done to this car, but either way it required extensive sanding and polishing to remove/improve the damage. I was told to “do what I could” on the rear bumper cover, which was the worst of the damage, and if the scratches couldn’t be improved to the point where it was hard to see, the owner would repaint the bumper cover.


Video walk around I had texted to the owner after I got the car all washed up.

Deep scratches on the rear bumper




More deep “circular” scratches on both sides of bumper covers/wheel well openings…these could have been from an automatic car wash, “Hub Scrub” or possibly a snow removal sweeper.
