    Recently completed job, this "New" to my client vehicle came from the Chicago area. The interior of this beautiful Ferrari was in great shape, however the exterior had the usual "Black car issues" with deep RIDS, sand scratches and hologram buffer trails.

    After a thorough wash/decon the vehicle correction commenced, brought Tony Ito in who worked with me as our detailer at my shop I used to be a GM at(Performance Art) as my schedule is filled up nicely.

    Tony backed his "Transit Connect Van into the shop as he likes to use "His gear" to work with lol.

    Car is awesome, work on it is top notch! Those wheels are the "blingness" compared to the painted ones.

    Bob, I cant believe you are not a car guy. You work on the most unbelieveable cars. Your reputation is probably the reason. Amazing work. Seriously.

    Another awesome job. I think that is my favorite car right now. Black is the roughest color to perfect and you can hide squat in the California sun. You work is amazing. How many hours does it take you to produce that type of work. I do not do this for a living but is takes me near a full day 10-12 hours to tear my car down and put is back together.

    I was curious, what do you use on clear film or vinyl in general to correct it?
