ok im trying this again, cause it didnt work before when i tried to submit it. and it was really long too... DAMN! anyways, did this 2004 cayenne twin turbo for a client. sorry about the lighting, but in the pics you can tell it was overcast, and i started around 3, so it just kept getting darker and darker...



process was:

interior:

1) oxi clean on mats

2) 303 on leather/dash/doors

3) 1z cockpit premium on center console

4) 1z glass cleaner on all glass



exterior:

1) mothers gold wash extra strength

2) intensive polish via rotary @ 1500 w/ sonus cutting pad (spot treat scratches)

3) final polish II via rotary @ 1500 w/ sonus green pad (spot treat buffer swirls/marring from intensive polish)

4) aio via rotary @ 1500 with sonus green pad (entire car)

5) menzerna fmj by hand

6) 303 on trim, wheels and wheel wells

7) meguiars hot shine on tires

this is my first time using a rotary on a customers car... i had a couple of months to practice with one and thought i was ready.. what do you think? there are no swirls at all... no proper lighting (cant ya tell) to take pictures of swirl free finish.. sorry
 
this was the first time you had used a rotory on a customers car. Well first its a porsche & second its silver. Its very new and unless there was major webbing i dont think you would have needed to use it. Especially IP w/ a cutting pad. I find that using ip w/ a polishing pad but to each their own. Anyway enough of the preach :o (sorry about that) Great job on the detail.
 
tdekany: thanks... and no i wasnt very nervous as to burning the paint, but rather more nervous to splatter.. which neither occured. to polish outside of the car, it probably took me 45 minutes, but i was going really slow, and in and out of the house (he dropped it off @ my house and left it with me overnight, so i had no need to rush)



6']['9: the ip with a cutting pad was for scratches, which it states in the process (there were several scraches on the car)... u get good results with ip and a polishing pad? i should try that... anyways, i did a lot of reading and researching on the rotary after i got it, as well as talking to many professional detailers, and i learned that it saves time opposed to the pc, is easier to use on vertical fenders, as well as other advantages (cant think of them all), so thats another factor for me using the rotary, and im pretty sure, that all of the cars i do from now on, i will be using the rotary... thanks for the compliments though.



btw, it had 15000miles.. is that still considered new? sorta right? oh well.



andriver: thanks
 
series1: thanks.. those wheels were a pain in the a**, and the funny thing is, the looked really easy to clean
 
Looks good! I have the same wheels on my car and they can be a pain with all the nooks and crannies. And the 19's dont give quite enough clearance to easily get around the brakes to clean inside...
 
GSRstilez: thanks... the oxiclean mix works well... u should see the inside of the truck... its crazy... so much technology, almost rivaling mercedes (in my opinion even better)



1 Clean WS6: thanks
 
Rob Tomlin: thanks... i like that pic of the rx8 on your avatar... looks really sick and unique.. i might have to take out a loan just to get a rx8, just so i could take a pic like that



vdog0531: thanks.. i liked using the aio with the rotary... yielded a lil better results, and i think the aio is what gave the car most of that wet look, but then again the poor lighting played a factor.
 
blue-sun: i was thinking of it, but i looked under hood, and you cant even see the turbos... everything is mostly covered
