TSS Auto Detailing, Pittsburgh PA: Black CTS Coupe paint restoration

[TSS Detailing]

This customer had not one but THREE poor detailing attempts on his 2010 CTS coupe; from dealerships to fast-wax shops. After a long discussion, he believed that I would be the most trust worthy, giving him realistic expectations and providing him with images of previous experience on GM black paint.

The entire car was covered in holograms, swirls and RIDs:


Fender after two cutting passes with a Rupes MKII 15mm, PFW pad and m100:


Sanding some RIDs near the door handle:


50/50 of sanded areas:


Epic reflections and depth restored:






The car was a dusty mess after all of the cutting work, so I gave her a foam bath, then finished down with my Flex 3401, Tangerine Pad and M205, then topped it with Gtechniq C2.
