The wheels I have is the racinghart c2, what products do you guys think I can use to clean this wheel? I don't know either the wheel is clear coated or not, and I really don't want to use anything that will damage the finish of the wheels so I really need your help. Is the Meguiars hot rims any good? also is there any kind of stuff I can use to wax the wheels to protect it and brings out the shine?



Any information would be appreciated!



Thanks a lot!
 
High performance "Momobile", this vehicle is a few months old but was in need of serious cleaning and paint corrective steps to clear up factory defects along with issues missed in the new car delivery.

At first the job was to be a 80% correction with a interior cleaning, however the client who I have done his 997 Turbo authorized a full correction as I assured him if the car was brought back with timely intervals the vehicle could stay like this always.

As the vehicle came in.

Embedded contaminates in the factory emblems which would require steaming to correct later in the job.

Deep marring in the finish.

Corrected.

Rare for Porsche sand scratches in the finish near the mirror support, usually only encounter sand scratches on 997 Turbo/GT3RS rear and front bumpers.

Corrected.

Hard to capture the defects on the white finish in pictures, this was one of the better shots.

The black trim and "B" pillars needed attention.

In pictures the camera may not pick up the marring on the white finish.....the tailights tell the real story.

Sticky tar and road film required aggressive measures.

After the paint correction was accomplished I turned my attention to the interior.

Dead pedal area carpet was slightly dirty....steamcleaning fixed the area.

Finished interior pics, the 2011 Cayenne is a improvement that was evident right away in the fit and finish department.

Nice turnaround! Can't imagine how long that must have taken you. Hope to get a steam cleaner and extractor of my own one day. White vehicles look really good when the black trim is kept in great shape.
 
Looks great Bob!

I wonder if the owner will ever know that you polished out the rocker panels? Great attention to detail sir, thats why you are one of the best.
 
Great job on the Cayenne Bob. Your attention to detail is what separates you from most others.:notworthy:
I would love to get a steamer for the same uses. If I had to choose between a steamer or a pressure washer, which would you think I should get first?

I have had pressure washers in the past(Had two Cam spray 1500 units at Performance Art and various Karchers) but with my containment mat for water run-off I would dump so much water I would have to stop in the wash step to drain out the water, also I can dismount wheels for serious clean up if needed.

Having both is of course is best but if funds do not allow I would go with the steamer as the pressure washer will not do what the steamer can on the interior and emblems/tight areas that I utilize it on.

Killer work on the CTT!

Thanks your "Jness", this Cayenne TT is tightness for sure and with the flash this thing moves out and the interior is MUCH improved along with the streamlined sheetmetal.

The wheels are nice (21") but a set of HRE's would be the " The cherry on top" or BBS RXII would also be sharp imo.

Great.
Thanks Bob!
 
While it is repeating the obvious, the attention to detail (and the way you highlighted it with the low-angle shots) was serious. Great work again!
 
trim looks amazing

If it's not a trade secret can I ask what you used to make that black trim look so good? Attention to detail is simply stunning, whatever that customer paid it has to be well worth it.

Amazing work..

To modify a Monty Python quote - "And he dispatched the tar and grime with the quickness, and there was much rejoicing" :rofl::rofl:

Bob - that thing was a mess and you show your top skills with this non-creme-puff CTT (in white no less). Not sure if I can agree with Jness on the MILF driver, but she now has a very hot ride :rockon:
 
Wow! Great work Bob! I especially like the trim work and the way you showcased how detail oriented you are and your thoroughness! :D


Jobs like this make me want a lift even more! :)
