This client approached me after having this S4 detailed by another local detailer and he wasn't happy with how the car looked. The paint still had swirls, RIDS, and was heavily marred from aggressive DA compounding. The hard Audi clearcoat was too much of a challenge for the other guy. After a talk on the phone and looking at the car in person we scheduled a multi-day correction to get the Audi looking proper again.
Upon arrival
Dull, lifeless, heavily marred paint....
50/50 shots after compounding only. Proper compounding finishing down better than the previous guy's attempt with some "rocks in a bottle" compound.
Driver's fender before...
After compounding
Lower sections were especially rough and took multiple passes with Meguiars 101 to clear up.
Starting to look better, but it took a few more passes to remove the remaining RIDS.
Severe RIDS
50/50 on door after compounding
Clarity difference, you can see the car wasn't very black when originally brought in
