    Sizzle Chest:
    Are the carbon-fiber pieces finished with a clear coat or are they unfinished or bare as they come from production molds?
    How do you detail (polish?) and treat (coat/protect) these surfaces?

    Any guess as to WHY the clear plastic pieces were scratched/swirled as much as they were with so little mileage on this GT3 RS? My guess would be a dry wipe by the dealership with a less-than-soft microfiber to remove dust or the use of "California"-type duster or wand with heavy pressure.

    That rear wing is a fixed position wing, but is it manually adjustable or truly fixed?

    The one picture from the elevated view in your garage of the hood with its vents and headlights and upper front air vent looks like a smiling Pokeman cartoon character.

    Thanks for the extended pics on this truly one-of-a-kind Porsche GT3 RS. To me this is THE epitome of the ultimate street-legal 911, although I am not sure how "practical" it is for that purpose.

    Just when I think I have seen a vehicles that looks REALLY good in the pics in front of your home, you post THIS ultimate white Porsche and it "ups the ante" to my oft-used phrase "this one looks like it just belongs there."

    Nice job Scott. The thing I don`t get is owning such a fine driving machine and have only 87 miles in almost a year.

    Thanks Merl!!

    Rs: Those were just delivery miles and a few he put on, he just took delivery of it, as the 2020/2021 (992) GT3 and GT3RS are not available yet, so this was `new` and just delivered.

    (but i get ya, I`d be driving the crap outta it! LOL)

    Re: 2019 Porsche GT3RS

    I agree a PTG gauge is a must otherwise you are polishing blind.



    I have a Ferrous/Non-Ferrous PTG I have used for years and it has saved my behind many times.
    I recently purchased a DeFelsko PosiTest DFT Combo to "upgrade" from my current gauge.
    I found (in my case) that my PTG measured 2 microns thinner than the DeFelsko DFT combo.

    Meaning...I do all my measurements in microns rather than mils.
    The DeFelsko DFT combo measured 116 mils and mine measured 114 mils. (error of the safe side)

    I returned the DFT and I am looking to upgrade to the Positector 200 Advanced body.
    "Measure the total thickness of a coating system or up to 3 individual layer thicknesses in a multi-layer system"

    This model will hopefully allow Primer/Base Coat/Clear coat individual thicknesses on multiple materials.
    w/2 Interchangeable probes for Ferrous/Non-Ferrous and Ultrasonic for fiberglass, carbon fiber and plastics (bumpers).

    The tag on this model with the two probes is a bit pricey. I`m gonna save my nickels and...Do it once. Do it right.

    NOTE: even an inexpensive PTG gauge is MUCH better than no gauge at all. A PTG is a very wise investment.

    Merlin:
    You are not kidding when you say the Defelsko PosiTector 200 Advanced requires saving a "few nickels" to buy!!
    You only need 53.900 of us fellow Autopians to send you a nickel to help you procure this detailing tool.
    https://www.autopia-carcare.com/defe...l#.X2tbYxBKj3g

    You do, however, bring up a good point about paint thickness and the fact that it is made up of three substrates; primer/base coat/clear coat.
    When a "conventional" Paint Thickness Gauge (PTG) measures the paint thickness, it is the TOTAL thickness of those three. That leads to the question of how thick is clear coat that is actually being corrected (compounded) or finished (polished). In light of ultra-thin paint substrates totals that are being measured by professional detailers` "conventional" PTGs on today`s modern vehicles of many manufacturers and post here in this forum, is in any wonder why detailers WANT to know how thick is the clear coat. It is also a contributing reason Griot`s Garage came up with the 9mm stoke for its new G9 polisher: to save the clear and keep hobbyists detailers from burning through it.

    Side note: If you are a new and/or used car inspector, this particular PTG is becoming (or more correctly, has become) a necessity. I have lobbied for the paint thickness reading to be part of a pre-delivery inspection for new vehicles and part of Car-Fax reports and the like information for used vehicles. (Keep dreaming Captain Obvious... like that will ever happen!! Hey, we found a job for you and the way that you can pay off (return on investment or ROI) this particular PTG when you buy it. Just saying`.... )
