    2008 Porsche Turbo Cabriolet, a exterior detail to bring back the finish and also deal with dried out trim and dirty top. Daniel from Car Connoisseur helped on this vehicle as well that week.



    Pre-wash inspection showed tremendous particulate and general crustiness.

    Initially thought the badge might have to be removed, and then put back on but careful correction and cramped fingers completed the task as later pics will demonstrate.

    Cowl trim with the dryness.

    Wheels and wheel wells were toast, in spite of the fact this Turbo was sporting ceramic brakes Daniel would spend over a hour during the wash step on the wheels(Not a wheels off detail).

    Arm work out for Daniel(He really needs that........).





    [​IMG]





    This was the reason, some of the worst fallout/particulate I have encountered.

    Silver is the "Hides all" color......................until proper light of truth is utilized.

    Before.



    [​IMG]





    After.





    [​IMG]





    Not so nice..........

    With the clarity.

    Water spots and scratches on the wing.





    [​IMG]





    Deep defects here, so prudence used to make sure we did not strike through(Bad for profits).





    [​IMG]





    With 14 microns of clear, one deep RID was going to have to be left alone.

    While Daniel was working the exhaust tips, I stripped the trim of the dry UV damage.





    [​IMG]





    Exfoliated.





    [​IMG]





    Crusty tip.





    [​IMG]





    Cleaness.





    [​IMG]





    Fruits of our labor, cleaness restored.

    Turbo badge looking proper, all scratches and crust removed.





    [​IMG]





    This car is DRIVEN, so the client was thrilled the car looked beautifull once again.
