This low mile, black Z06 vette arrived in need of a detail for the upcoming Corvettes at Carlisle Event. So our goal was to make sure the paint was as flawless as could be, making sure all defects are gone and maximum gloss and depth achieved. With that said, there were a good deal of scratches/swirls and such that needed to be removed. As well as a debadging of the trunk and removal of some old wax in edges and jams. Needless to say, this very loud vette was prepared to shine! Products used: Meguiar’s M105 + Purple wool pad on rotary Menzerna SIP + Orange pad on PC Menzerna 106 + White pad on PC Chemical Guys Citrus wash P21S paint cleanser P21S polishing soap P21S TAW Chemical Guys wheel cleaner Meguairs Superdegreaser Sonus Ultrafine green clay CG maxi suds and ONR mix as clay lube CG 5050 wax Rejex sealant for wheels Process: Car was sprayed with TAW and left on for a minute, rinsed off and washed with Citrus wash. Washed wheels with CG WC and exhaust tips were cleaned with polishing soap. After car was washed again and dried, all trim was taped off, LED tail lights were removed because they were not flush with the body and had rubber trim around them, license plate holder/backup light were removed as well. Did test panel and after trying several combos we went with most aggressive combination because clear coat on this year Z06 is very hard, I would say harder then on MC or BMW E46 M3. Bumpers and tight spots of the car were done with wool and 105 on PC, rest of the car was done with same combo on rotary. After compounding front of car was done with orange pad and SIP and then followed with white pad and 106 to get best finish possibly. Tail lights were polished with same combo as car on PC and installed back in. After polishing, car was paint cleansed and waxed. Exhaust before and after 50/50 shots one side after 105 and wool on rotary. Other after same plus SIP and orange on PC Final pics Beading shot
Great work as usual. Misha, have you tried Iron Cut? It really reduces the time spent removing rail dust. It usually takes me 30-45 mins max to remove rail dust with IC.
