2012 Porsche Panamera Turbo S correction

[white gecko]

This fully loaded, beautifully appointed, and savagely fast Panamera Turbo S came in for the ultimate treatment. Bob and I tag-teamed this one to bring out the best in the beautiful Porsche paint. This is a good example of why new cars need thorough detailing. It was in good order, but it needed to be better.....so we got to work!







On the containment mat, getting reading for foaming and washing

Wheels and wheel wells needed some attention

Dirty calipers...........MASSIVE calipers

Wax on the factory clear bra in front of the rear wheels

Water spots needed sorting out....

Dirty exhaust tips...

Wheels freshly cleaned and calipers looking much better!

Dialed in.....

Claying on the hood

Ready for inspection and correction

RIDS..........

RID on hood....

Sorted out!

RID on roof. Not easy to find and not the easiest to correct, but just because it takes longer doesn't mean you skip it.

Corrected!

Swirls on the rear hatch

50/50

Corrected

Delicate work required to take these deep RIDS out without damaging the lettering, as removal was not an option on this car

Much improved

Bob in action!

Sanding mark left behind at the factory

Paint corrected and looking proper

Working the final polishing

Check out the gloss, much improved.

Thanks for looking!

Looks great! Honestly, it was in better shape than I expected based on what the dealers to do cars around here.

This is by far the classiest Panamera in the world, and of course and owner who is smart enough to spec a car that way is also smart enough to get it detailed by the best, great work guys!

Awesome work guys. What was LSP?

 

[white gecko]

Thanks guys! I'll let Bob share the LSP if he wants to.

 

[autoconcierge]

Meguiars D301 was the LSP, one of the easiest LSP's to use.
