Default OCDetailing Detailed: Trashed Black 2005 Porsche Carrera S

Hey everyone,

I guess this would be my first official post in the detailing section.

Anyways so the past couple of days I spent my time at the Porsche dealership on a trade in that was in horrendous condition. It was my first detail at that dealership and the people there were great. Although it was disappointing that someone would treat a car, any car the way the previous owner treated this beauty.

During the inspection stage the roof and rear hatch had particularly low paint reading and was hit with the PC DA with a much less aggresive combination.

Please excuse some of the untouched wheel wells. The car was washed and sat in the bay. I did a quick ONR on the paintwork and went at it.

Whoops one last thing. I was only to address the paintwork at the request of the client.

Anyways enough of my babbling.

Enjoy,
Nick

That was an amazing transformation! Unfortunately the previous owner of my car was pretty bad too. Looks like he dipped the towels in mud before he would wash the car...
