This was a clean car that needed full exterior detail and full interior detail. We also cleaned up the engine for this one. The customer took great care of the car so our work wasn't too bad it was mostly attention to the details. A brief history on this Mas...(from the Maserati website) A Modern Coupé Designed By Pininfarina The Maserati GranTurismo is the first modern, two-door, four-seater coupé that delivers much more than its sensual beauty initially suggests. Pininfarina latest creation was destined for greatness right from its debut at the 2007 Geneva Motorshow. The car can trace its heritage right back to the very first GranTurismo produced by Maserati, the 1947 A6 1500 GT Pininfarina and it also incorporates the innovation and impact of the Birdcage 75th, the futuristic concept car that, in 2005, suggested the lines for future Maserati models. For over sixty years Maserati has been a leading constructor of luxury automobiles. The marque is renowned for its high performance, comfort and overall safety. The GranTurismo does not stray from this tradition thanks to its distinct personality, its perfect blend of power and elegance, its adventurous design and surprising practicality. The muscular and aerodynamic shape has been carefully studied down to the smallest details and is the fruit of extensive wind tunnel testing. This build quality is continued in the mechanical components: the V8 engine has all the characteristics of a competition-level power unit. It was developed to respond instantly to the accelerator and reward with previously unheard of driving pleasure. The GranTurismo scores top marks when it comes to style, technology and craftsmanship, characteristics that have been recognised by its winning numerous international ‘Best Car’ awards. This is testimony to the competence, professionalism and attention to detail that makes each Maserati truly unique.

thanks silver doesn't show anything but this car was pretty much mint...needed to get cleaned up for the summer.
Oooooh gorgeous vehicle, love the interior of these vehicles not to mention the exterior lines :druling: Job well done :applause:
You don't do that to a wax like Divine. It can hold it's own. I personally don't understand why people put a sealant under wax anyway, it just takes away what the wax can fully do. Phil, the silver looks great.
Drool Phil ! I love that car although I do prefer the black exterior however the interior is just gorgeous Curvacious !
I've always been under the impression for light cars or cars with flake to use a sealant to get the most out of the flakes, so i meant just the sealant rather than topping the sealant. But I understand the concept of "selling" a detail with an uber high end wax. as for Divine, I hardly see details with it that show flake pop so i figured it muted the flake. Anyways excellent job phil on my future car!
thanks! to be honest the car didn't really show any flakes after the polishing...maybe I'll try it next time.
