Exterior before shots
The Fenix TK35 was extremely helpful detecting paint imperfections
Prep - Clear film removal/Wheels/Tires/Decon/Autoscrub/Wash
Clear film was on the car since 2001 - it needed to be removed, it's job was done. (we used 7 cans of 3m adhesive remover on this job!)
Sonax Full Effect used to clean up the wheels
All Purpose used on the tires
Some agitation with a brush and we are pulling some dirt/grime/brake dust off the tires
Wheel wells getting hit with APC
Rinse
Wolf's Decon Gel

After we rinsed down the Decon Gel we moved on to pre soak with snow foam
Car was washed traditionally - 2 bucket method and we move on to NanoSkin Autoscrub
After the wash here is what the car looked like it almost appears if the car was sand blasted with zero gloss!
if you look closely you will see some marring left by the NanoSkin Autoscrub - Porsche paint = soft
Correction process - before/afters and 50/50 shots
50/50 of the front bumper
Close up
50/50 door shot
more 50/50 shots
50/50 of the rear brakelight
close up
rear taillights polished out to zero imperfections
closer shot
the hood was in bad shape, this car is tracked
Taxi cab paint transfer
Improvement after FG400 and Rupes BigFoot
Rupes BigFoot action shot
Rinse and blow dry with the Metro Air Force Blaster 8 hp
After compound and polishing
A nice improvement over what we started wtih
Sonax Polymer NetShield used as a last step
Finishing touches
Before shot of the lip spoiler
After - using Pre Wow followed by Black Wow
