SpeedFreak Detailed: 2013 Black 911S Correction + Opti Coat

Had this one planned for a month or so. It appears the paint on the 991 cars isn't any harder than the black paint on the previous gen vehicles. This poor fellow special ordered the car, dealer washed it after he told them not to...first batch of swirls installed. After that, he was told by a "mobile detailer" that he knew what he was doing and not to worry......second batch of swirls installed. The gentleman traveled over 2 hours to have me properly remove the defects, and Opti Coat the car. This 911 has been washed a total of two times and looks like it does in the before photos, pretty horrific! I only had one full day to get this job done so I was super pressed for time, though I made sure to get at least one 50/50 and post correction shot. Total time was a little over 13 hours.

Once the car was dried and pulled inside, the halogens were used to document the horrific condition after only two washes

Unfortunately being so pressed for time, that was all I got during. The sun was already setting by the time I pulled the car out for some "after" shots so these will have to do.

Great job bringing the finish back! :)



Good thing is now that the coating is on, it will be much easier to wash with car without it getting marred up.
 
Wow great work! I can't believe 2 "experienced" people can wash a car and cause that much damage. I don't think I can cause that much damage using a shop towel and 2 puddles of rain water (1 for rinse 1 for wash :chuckle:)
