Good Evening.

I've got lots of bits of video footage as well but thought I'd get the photos up on here asap. This very low milage car was detailed over 2 rather long days. In total 40 hrs work went into refining the paint finish.

For those that are interested the process was...

Wheels with acid free cleaner
PH Neutral pre wash foam, pressure rinsed
Shampoo'd with megs shampoo and 2 buckets (one rinse bucket one shampoo)
Clayed with Sonus mild clay
Machine polished with a range of products from 3M, GlossIt, Meguairs and Menzerna
Sealed and protected with Blackfire paint sealant
Interior leather cleaned and the treated with gliptone liquid leather
Glass polished

For those that arent interested in all that..... .. here are a few photos during and after the detailing work.

And the finished car late on Thursday night..

Very difficult car to get perfect but highly rewarding once it was complete.

Thanks for looking.

Top notch work there, results are immense.

I thought the Testarossa came with only 1 wing mirror?

Fantastic work Nathan. I've always been impressed with your work, but this was something special. Both Stuart and yourself excelled with this one and Danny was understandably gob smacked. You took an okay car and turned it into a concours' winner.

Danny's Speedster was equally stunning so I look forward to the pics of that also.

That was the 1st Phase 1984 to 88, 89 on was 2 Mirrors.

Looks mega.

You need to hook up with Simon Cachia on here. He has a Testarossa (may be a 512TR?).
