    JoeyV Welcome to Detailing

    So, I'm going to admit, I'm a bit of a Ferrari fan. Seeing as I can't afford one, I have a bunch of Ferrari paraphernalia. Posters, sounds tracks, paintings, clothing, and scale model cars. Since I had a bit of time today after cleaning the house a bit, I decided it was time to detail my Ferraris. :p I decided to begin with my only black one. My 1984 Testarossa.

    Here are the before shots.

    This is a quick shot of it cleaned with Sunlight Soap, APC and then wiped down with IPA. Also showing the products used for correction.

    Then I taped off a small section for a test spot, which also served as a 50/50 splitter:

    A quick pass of the Megs 105:

    and the appropriate 50/50:

    Retaped and went on with the Menz Micro Polish:

    And ITS 50/50:

    As seen in the pictures, I used BF Gloss Enhancing polish on the whole car (Roof took 3 layers) and then laid down a layer of BF Wet Diamond. I later also decided to add a layer of Dodo Juice Banana Armour. Tires and trim were dressed with AG Instant Tyre Dressing.

    Here are the final shots:

    I'd also like to point out that the rear bumper is indeed missing. I sent it of to the dealer to be resprayed...a Buggati 110 rear ended it. lol

    Q-tips were used for almost everything with the exception of microfibers for the general wash. Just a little but of APC for the wheels though.
