Some shiny cars for you to look at on a dull Tuesday morning.
Details of all of our services along with over 300 of the cars e've previously worked on can be seen on our website...
The next car for this customer was his new Lava Orange GT3RS.
I've now worked on 3 991 RS but seen a further 3 in the flesh, and all 6 have exhibited the same paint defects. Sanding marks and really poor holograms on the bonnet, wings and front and rear bumpers leaving a really dull finish and general swirls over the rest of the car. Its been a similar story on the GT4s as well.
Deep swirls on the front wings
After polishing
Swirls, sanding marks and holograms lower down on the front wing
After polishing
Holograms leaving a dull finish on the edge of the wheel arch
After polishing
Lights removed to get access to hard to reach areas that had swirls and holograms
After polishing
A couple of shots after polishing showing the nice glow you actually get from this non metallic Lava Orange once its properly polished. Not as complex as Woppum's project colour but nicer than I had expected when I saw the press photos of this colour.
A final before and after just to bang home how poor the standard of this £160k brand new car was!
After polishing
The customer again requested Gtechniq Crystal Serum as the base sealant to give this new car the best protection possible. This was topped with Gtechniq C2. Trim treated with Gtechniq C4. Glass treated with Gtechniq G1.
The finished results.
While I'm on the "Porsche need to do better" theme... here we have another 991RS. And another one that I've got to say the colour in the flesh looked a lot better than I was expecting.
Swirls on the rear quarters
After polishing
Swirls and holograms on the rear bumper
After polishing
Scuffs where someone had been careless in transport or PDI
After polishing
I'd noticed that the carbon engine cover was looking very dull so I had a couple of goes at brightening this up and this was as good as it got.
After polishing
The customer requested Gtechniq C1, but I'd run out of this so with the customers approval I applied Crystal Serum at no extra cost. This was again topped with Gtechniq C2 and the interior was cleaned and protected with the Gtechniq Antibacterial interior products. I2, I1 and L1.
The finished result... Purple Perfection
There are a few more images of both cars in the portfolio on our website.
Thanks for looking and happy to answer any questions.
