This 2007 Infiniti G35 was in desperate need of a proper correction detail, a recent purchase by it's owner with only 13k original miles on it. Clearly it had fallen victim to poor dealership detailing and the damage was evident even in the shade, as you will see in the pictures to follow. This black car looked almost it had a matte finish before the correction, the 50/50 shots will clearly explain the difference. Process and products are listed!

Correction steps.
Paint thickness was checked, was reading in 300 on most panels, looks like it was repainted, roof and couple panels were original (readings from 76-106. Paint had very similar properties after trying several combination of pads and polishes, Meguairs M105 and Wool were chosen since they got out most imperfections on first pass. Whole car was done with this combo. Followed with Menzerna 203 and orange, then wiped with P21S paint cleanser. Sealed with Denasee paint cleanser.
Exhaust was cleaned with CG metal wax since it was in good condition. Wheels cleaned with CG wheel cleaner.
