A client of mine wanted his wife’s Boxster squared away. Paint correction and a ceramic coating were on deck.
For a new vehicle this one was pretty beat up. A ton of swirls covered the entire vehicle. A 2 step correction took care of the majority of the defects.
It now looks like a piece of candy! An M&M perhaps!! Very glossy!

2BW w/Adam’s shampoo.
Micro-chenille mitt.
Iron decon’d with McKee’s37 iron remover.
Clayed with Griot’s medium mitt. Lube was my wash solution.
Tar was removed, once again, with a super-secret tar remover that I am beta testing and wish they would release it soon…it’s very good. (and I need more!)
Adam’s APC on rocker panels, rear valance, wheel wells, etc.
PTG readings compliments of DeFelsko.
Rupes Mark II 21, Rupes mini and Rupes iBrid.
Rupes green and yellow foam pads were used.
McKee’s37 Fast compound and polish were the cutting agents of choice!
Misc MF towels.
NanoPro Pro9H Black Edition was the LSP of choice. The rims were coated in this as well.
I topped the Pro9H with a coating of NanoPro ProFeather for additional hydrophobic properties, gloss and to prevent water spotting.
NanoPro rubber and trim was used on the wheel wells plastics and calipers.
QuickJack 5000XL was used to lift the vehicle.
Lighting via Scangrip.
Calipers/wells cleaned with Adam’s APC.
Wheels cleaned with Adam’s wheel cleaner.
Tires were cleaned with Adam’s tire/rubber cleaner.
Speedmaster brushes and other misc brushes were used.
Tire dressing SCG Pro.
Glass was cleaned with Blackfire glass cleaner.
Leather was cleaned with Blackfire interior cleaner.
Dash, nav-screen, etc was wiped down with McKee’s37 quick interior detailer.
The leather was treated with Ultima Interior Guard Plus.
Vacuum: Metro.
Master blaster to dry vehicle and wheels.
Carpets spot cleaned with Wolfgang carpet cleaner.


I believe that’s everything! Thanks for reading/looking!

I would go with tropical skittle but either way looks awesome. I like the last shot- makes it almost look split between matte and gloss.
 
Great work as always, Captain Porsche! I picture that car cruising its way over all the bridges and islands in the Keys.
 
Thanks for the comments everyone! 512--LOL!!

This would be the perfect Keys cruiser trash!!!

Thank you much Mark!
 
Great work as usual....but on to the important topic here. What are those stack of black drawers to left of the electric panels. They look like the perfect towel/pad storage system.

Quit teasing us, Sizzle Chest. This is the second post I think that I`ve asked about this beta-tar remover and if you have any input into its product development and can at least give us an "approximate" release date/time. Spring road pot-hole repair and construction is just about underway here in the Upper Midwest and tar removal is becoming of prime importance now.
Can I ask if it is "better" than the forum-favorite Stoner`s Tarminator??
 
Another grand slam by Scott Harle! Car looks great. I CANNOT believe how good the barrel of that wheel looks. Luv it !!

Agreed on the color of the car, just right for FL :)
 
Wow what a great work! And thanks for the detailed write ups you gives us.

With the name of it seems like the Nanopro is a certified installer coatings?

How do you like the green rupes pad? Have heard not so good things about them as they don`t holds up so good.

Hmmmm...I like it as much, if not a bit better. The `delivery` of it is better. Non-aerosol.

The Nanopro I am trying out. I am not sure if you have to be a certified installer or not. I like the pads, however, as you stated, they do not hold up very well. I went through quite a few of them on this job.



And to everyone else who commented, Thank you very, very much!!!!!
 
Outstanding result - as usual Sizz. For some reason I cannot handle that color on that shape....but hey, i`m just crazy like that.
 
What brand are the drawers? I`m looking for plastic drawers that can hold towels and seal so the dust can`t get in. The drawers at the office places/target are nice, but could let some dust and dirt into the towels
