Detailer's Domain: Bentley Flying Spur - Trashed

As the title states on this one this was one pretty trashed Bentley, for the most part I wasn't expecting anything this bad. The customer wanted it fixed and didn't really mind how long it took or how much. Again we couldn't believe how bad it was, until we saw it in the direct sunlight.

We did the normal prep work, wash, wheels, clay, etc. For the paint correction we enrolled Menzerna Power Gloss Compound with an Uber Yellow Pad, followed by Menzerna Super Intensive Polish with an Uber Green Pad, finally we finished with my favorite Menzerna PO85RD. As a last step we gave it a coat of Swissvax Divine. Enjoy!

Looks what's next

 

Pure hotness. Great job! :applause:

 

Amazing results Phil!!!! Can't wait to see the E34 M5!!!!

 

Amazing transformation.
Still so warm in NJ? The leaves are still green!

 

I'm about 10 write ups behind....

 

amazing turnaround, Phil! Love it!

 

Amazing!

You would think that if you could afford one of those you could at least take care of it...

 

Great work Phil! Reminds me of the Bentley GT I did.. same exact condition. however I found it very easy to correct.. as your process shows, even with that amount of damage, no need for wool. :thumb:

 

great job very nice reflections in your opinion do you think that divine is better than crystal rock? ive seen that you've used both thanks

 

I like both I tend to favor Crystal Rock but heck this was on the shelf.... lol

 

Very nice work!
Can't wait for your another write-ups!

 

That was a pretty trashed Bentley, but a great turnaround to show how a Bentley should look like!

 

Bet the owner thought you switched cars on him !!!

 

good stuff, 180 degree turnaround!

 

Absolutely stunning guys! Fantastic job.

 

Amazing work. :worship2:

It says on your site that Divine is "made to order and is specially formulated to meet the paint system of one particular automobile", but you seem to use it on many different cars. Is this some sort of generic version of Divine? :shead:

 

:worship2: Outstanding work!

 

A great detail turnaround on a spectacular vehicle

 

Superb work there Phil! What kind of masking paper is that?

 

Vehicle looks great, boy these Bentleys have very large panels, lot of polishing :nod:

Great turn around though.
