Wow, never a "dull" moment...JK. Unusual color which makes it more desirable. Beautiful result even if there wasn`t much to do. These "not much to do" can be harder than the really bad ones.

Thank you!

As usual, thanks for the great pics. The best detailers get to detail the best cars. You are the epitome of that statement. Hope your "repaired" spine/back is getting (MUCH) better, by the way!!!

This thread is a testament of how much swirling can be induced into a clear coat/paint by improper wash and wiping techniques. I assume it is the clothes or microfibers that were used or just wiping the Viper with a duster (maybe??).

Do all the Modesta coatings require Infra Red light/heat curing? Is this IR system something that Modesta sells or did they recommend it from a third-party supplier?
I know I asked this before , but who is the IR manufacture of the set-up is that you have and WHY or HOW does the IR light/heat cures the coating, IE, what effect it has on the gloss and longevity of the coating. I do not know of other coating manufacturers who "require or suggest" this IR curing as a part & process to using their coating.


You also mentioned some thing about wash techniques or processes used to maintain Modesta coatings. Do you have such a specific car-care chemical(s) ,wash media(s), and drying microfiber(s) with a process and do you inform the owner of the vehicle what it is or sell them a vehicle wash kit so they can wash and maintain the vehicle themselves when it dirty?

Thank you! Most pro coatings require it curing. Modesta requires short wave curing to assure no problems after releasing the vehicle. The lamp we use is made by infra tech, but there are others on the market. And no Modesta does not sell them. As far as maintenance, we provide a starter kit of the Modesta maintenance products and Griot’s wash at time of pick up. We provide written and verbal instructions also. It is basically proper wash techniques with proper equipment and the Modesta products.
