this is not full correction even if 95% correction was achieve. first was interior: 303 protectant and some leather cleaner conditioner.

some rookie in production line practice on every panel of this car.





U got the idea
now to correction part... i start with g110 meg polish pad and 205 and didn`t work , i change with sonus polish pad and 205 didn`t work, i use first time optimum hyper polish spray and meg polish pad , didn`t work. with all this the result was still not to my expectations so i took out of bag flex DA and with 3m ultrafina combo and hit the test panels.
bumpers was the worse , so i have to do 2 tests. one on door and one on bumper.
here is the result, first 3 passes was with weight on flex , the last passes was light to ensure i do not leave any holo or haze.
all test spots was ipa spray , let sit and wipe clean.





after correction the car was pull out of garage and got some foam action (mix dawn and hyper soap) and 2 bucket wash

as protection i choose opti-seal.

To me, it would be pretty depressing actually...It's like getting to touch an amazing beautiful woman whole day long without actually riding her

fCalifornia in black looks really nice. i saw a gray/silver one and looks even better, i bet needs only light maintenance compare with black and red cars.
