    Hi There

    My last detail was to me a dream came true, detailing a Porsche 911 Turbo (996) from 2001
    and after it driving it "freely" :grinno:

    Well my day started real early because i live near Lisboa and the detail were in Porto , 350 kms from my house.. :rolleyes: , after a 2 hour drive i started detailing my dream car.

    The 996 was medium swirled but heavy holograms were present, a dealership bonus after one maintenance :furious:

    Rear wing and top were more swirled

    The hood also with swirls and holograms, it has to be a PRO to make something like this :wall

    The interior was clean but needed some work on the plastics and leather.

    My setup :

    - Washed and clayed
    - LC Orange pad with IP and PC x 2
    - LC Black pad with PO85RD
    _ Pwc Blue
    - Nattys blue

    During the polishing as you can see, 2 passes of orange pad with IP , cleaned almost 100% the swirls and 100% the holograms, i just love
    Menzerna :)

    The rims tooked 1z PP for manual polishing, and PB WS for sealant.

    The car is owned by a Professional Race driver, and as you can see the 996 gets the full treatment from the owner ( last trackday at Estoril Race

    Track )

    The interior was conditioned with PB Natural look, metalic parts polished with 1z PP and waxed with OCW.
