    Client had his 2010 GTR repainted due to it being keyed.........unfortunately the body shop did a very poor job at best. After the correction I wrapped the entire car in XPEL Ultimate PPF and finally an application of GTechiq EXO coating.

    As it was delivered.

    Cheap bulk Ardex level compound residue was stuck in every crevice as well as heavy overspray on some areas of the car.

    All body shop compound residue was removed and the vehicle was washed and deconed .

    Beautiful job Richie. If you don't mind me asking, how did you handle the compound residue removal? I had a car with nasty compound residue and it was a struggle for sure. Thanks in advance and amazing transformation.
