    This is a detail of a 2007 Bentley Continental GT in Diamond Black. Several months ago I was contacted by one of my clients who wanted to give a gift to a friend of his. The gift was that I would detail 3 of the friends cars for him. This is the second of the three.

    The Bentley Continental GT is such an amazing automobile. It sports a W12 engine that puts out 552 hp and goes 0-60 in 4.8 seconds and a top speed of 195 mph. It does all of this while being truly luxurious.

    The car was extremely well cared for by the owner. Garage kept and very well maintained which made the detail pretty easy. I did have some issues with 106ff dusting on me but I ended up adding a drop of Optimum Polish which seem to help some.

    Process:

    Presoak via foam gun with Eagle One soap and CG CWG
    Wash via 2 BM and Megs NXT soap and sheepskin mitt
    Clay with Pinnacle Clay and Pinnacle Clay Lube
    Interior wiped down with Woolite 6:1
    All leather dressed with Pinnacle Leather Conditioner
    All interior wood grain polished with Klasse AIO
    Polish via Makita 9227 and Sonus white pad with Menzerna 106ff
    Spot polish with 4 inch CCS pad
    Wheels cleaned with P21S
    Tires cleaned with EO Tire Cleaner and dressed with Megs Hot Shine
    Engine cleaned with P21S Total Auto Wash
    Engine dressed via CD2 and Sonus Total Eclipse
    LSP=Pinnacle Souveran
    Exterior lenses and headlights polished with 106ff and Megs Plastix
    Exhaust polished with Wolfgang Alum Polish
    Glass cleaned with Zep Glass Cleaner

    Awesome job Pat!!!!!! The depth and shine in the paint is remarkable. Rims are beautiful, love the lines in the carpet and the engine is spotless! Thanks for sharing!

    Pat..what a great job on an amazing car. I'd be like a giddy school girl working on a piece like that.:giggle: What a great idea for your friend to give as a present!
    A question for ya: I picked up some Zep glass cleaner but haven't used it yet..what ratio do you cut it with? Thanks.

    Hey Richy...

    Zep Glass Cleaner is by far the best glass cleaner I have used. Al turned me onto it and I love it. You can even use it as an interior cleaner. I am pretty sure the ratio is one ounce to 32 ounces.

    Beauty job,Pat. Any idea how long the Souveran will last?

    Im guessing 3-4 weeks at best. It's a garage queen so it might last a little while longer.

    Looks great. Nice detail and nice car. Pinnacle souveran durabilty is from 2 to 3 months. I'm having very good luck with it

    Looks grreat Pat! You have to love a Bentley interior. One thing I don't like about a Continental GT is the back seat has has no leg room. It's one of those cars you wonder why they even bothered to put in a back seat.
