Completed yesterday... a 1981 Ferrari 400i GT RHD. The only Rosso Corsa RHD Manual produced.

The car has been restored and resprayed some years ago but the paint was still single stage solid red so it required a very fine finishing polish to refine and leave a perfect hologram free finish.

The car was clayed with Sonus clay and then polished with Menzerna ip3.02 on a 3m cutting pad in places and a Megs polishing pad in other places. Then refined with a megs finishing pad and Menzerna 106fa and 3m Ultrafina in some places where I just couldn't get a crystal sharp finish from the menzerna.

The car was then finished with dodo juice supernatural wax. Windows cleaned, tyres dressed, job done.

Myself and Stuart worked flat out for 11 hrs each to complete this one.

Enjoy the final shots..
