2010 Nissan GTR Finish Restoration

[autoconcierge]

Recent job completed in the shop, the vehicle had low miles (Just over 3K) but the finish was in awful condition due to repeated automated washes.



Before wash/decon steps.

During wash...........LSP present.

LSP stripped off.

First set of 50/50 shots.

Reverse angle.

"A" Pillar 50/50 pic.

Entire "A" pillar corrected with compounding step and medium polishing, not fine polished yet.

Wing was badly marred.

Rear trunk with deep RIDS and marring.

Readings after heavy correction on the left side of the trunk.

Rids and marring removed by levelling the finish.

Reverse angle of the wing.

Driverside rear quarter before.

Defects levelled away.

Drivers door 50/50.

Rear bumper drivers side looking pretty bad.

After.

Deep scratches close to the trim.

After.

More defects.

After.

GTR's do not like rotary correction, so had to go slower in the initial compounding steps.

The wheels were also victims of the "Tunnelwash" deep marring on all the spokes.

Marring removed.

Dirty exhaust tips.

"Cleaness'.

Engine was not bad, so light wipedown and dressing to complete the look.

Even the license plate frame was marred and had water spots.

Finish on the frame corrected.

Nearing completion.

Sun pics................used 3D Nitro Seal on this car as well since I had opened the bottle a few days before, pics tell the story.

All finished.

Interior needed little, so only one pic.

Ready for delivery.

amazing work as usual Bob :drool:



But I must say you work area always impresses me the most. Having that lift in the middle must make everything so much easier than bending down low to get the rockers/side skirt like areas. Very jealous.

Awoseme work Bob! I guess you like the look of NS

 

[Brad B]

Looks great! What a huge improvement.

The car looked MUCH better in person, jetness of color is there in abundance(As I give credit where credit is due) pics tell the story for me.

It's hard coming up with new things to say about your work Bob, so I'll just say great job. Nice save, and incredible afters, especially sun shots. That NS looks unbelievable on red!

Great work as always Bob! Is the red on the GTR as much as a PITA as the black is?

 

[Fast Eddie]

Wow Bob, that GTR was hammered, great turnaround to say the least.

Awesome work Bob! The front pillar looked like it had some buffer trails in it too, no?





You set the owner up on a maintenance plan? ...I'd shoot him if he went to the tunnel wash again! :bat

Glad to see one of my *practical* dream cars is getting proper attention and care :clap2:

Stunning work! Hugely effective 50/50s.



What did you use on the tyres? They look incredibly black but not oily, which is great.



How long did all polishing steps take if I may?

I used 303 Protectant on the tires and the paint correction was roughly 28 hours.

Bob,



Outstanding works as always man. Your attention to detail is still second to none. Looks incredible.

 

[JohnKleven]

I would say tightness has been achieved. Great work Bob.

 

[tom p.]

That is an awesome machine. You've really outdone yourself, Bob.



It amazes me how much car wash damage there is with so few miles

Nice! NitroSeal is definitely on my list of must-try products, and you just sold it even further with this thread
