    Lexus RC that just kicked my butt!

    This was a new client that just recently purchased this 2016 with 25K on it. Certified 161 point inspection and reconditioned to as new condition Lexus RC that just kicked my butt!. As you can see, I think it not only sat outside but got all the free car washes at the dealership! Tried Griot’s fast cut cream on a microfiber pad with the 15, it did remove the finer defects but not the more significant ones. Switched to the 21 which did the trick but left significant haze. So we polished with Griot’s perfecting cream on an orange pad with the 21. This removed most of the haze but not all. Refined with Griot’s perfecting cream on a yellow perfecting pad using the 15. This did the trick. Finally refined once again using Modesta Primer with a black boss pad on the GG6. Coated with BC08, wheels with Dr Beasley plasma coat, tires with Griot’s black satin, glass with Dr Beasley. About 9 hours polishing and a few hours coating. There are still some deeper water marks and scratches that are just not safe to remove but all in all I was happy and the client was very pleased. Thank you for looking!

    Brought that back from the brown side of the turf.

    Awesome.

    I KNOW from experience what you are talking about. These Lexus are not easy to finish out.

    Looks soooo good!

    I know from experience on my 2016 Lexus GX that the obsidian black paint is a royal PITA. you did a awesome job.
