Dealer prepped RX330

[Thomas Dekany]

I detailed this guy's 944 last summer and recently he picked up this beautiful Lexus. Of course the dealer buffed it out with a wool pad which he didn't see until next day. Picked the car up at night. Holograms buffer swirls were everywhere. Took me 5 hours.



wash

clay

EC/rotary/yellow ccs pad 1700rpm where needed

OHC/pc/6/orange 7.5 lc pad - entire car

106ff white lc pad pc speed 6 except roof

CG's Extreme Top Coat green finishing pad pc 3

fk1 3108 on tires/trim



After washing it it doesn't look too bad does it?

Claying the hood

This should show newcomers why claying is so important. Even a wool pad couldn't remove the contemination



Now this is how the paint REALLY looked.

Here is a half & half after compounding

Looks amazing now :xyxthumbs



Do dealers newer look at the cars in the sun?? Oh well, their level of work means that there is more work for those doing proper detailing
