Here we have a 2002 Maserati 4200 Spyder that needed some TLC.

No pictures of wash stages as it was raining heavily so just cracked on with the job at hand at the time but here are some pics of some of the work carried out.

I noticed a scuff on the drivers seat and luckily I had some burgundy colour dye left over from a job that i done on a Mercedes so this was used to colour wash the area and add some colour.
