Street Dreams Detail - Lotus 2-Eleven + Porsche Cayman 4

Full details and paint correction on a Lotus 2 Eleven and Porsche Cayman R

First the Lotus, due to the car having no roof of any kind a gentle ONR wash was done opposed to a full 2 bucket suds fest.

Paint condition was okay, just some wash marring and a select few areas with RIDs and fine scratches. D300, M105, Powerfinish and PO85rd were all used during the correction stage.

If you were curious the Lotus is a track only car, they are not street legal.
All decals and graphics taped off before polishing



Initial condition...



50:50



Before



After











Rear bumper took a little more abuse than the rest of the car, few extra passes required to yield full correction





Smaller griots machine was used to polish beneath the wing







Final shots...















Next: Porsche Cayman R

No pictures of the process. This was a 2 step paint correction followed by Aquartz.



















My favorite...




Thanks for reading!

Nice work Dave!

 

Sick cars. Epic detailing Dave.

I once saw a 2-Eleven hop on the PCH near Huntington Beach, CA. Driver was wearing a full-face helmet of course. It was one of the coolest cars I've ever had the chance to see on the road.

 

Amazing working space, would love to have something like that one day.

 

Nice David. Very nice. He's gonna need a larger warehouse soon or more lifts!

 

Looking good Dave, the red on that Porsche is absolutely stunning!

Sweet cars. Great job on the paintwork!
I also agree you have a very nice shop to work out of. I guess it will come in time for me (hopefully).

 

Great work Dave! Always love seeing "actual" race cars get the full treatment! Fantastic pics of both cars.

 

great job Dave!

 

Very nice Dave!

 

Great work as always Dave!


Some nice ponies in that stable too!

 

Chad forgot to welcome you here........................nice meeting your wife @SEMA at the 3D shindigs. ,oh and the Lotus is TIGHTNESS.

 

Dave, you missed a spot on the Porsche.

 

Great Job Dave

 

nice work dave, the GG 3" does come in handy.

 

At SEMA Kevin Brown took me over to the Mirka booth and they are coming out with a ELECTRIC DA machine which is smooth as butta.................... it is small and light so getting under wings etc will be easier as I CAN take the stuff off but would rather not if possible as it can be a PITA. will be looking for this soon on buffdaddy.com when kevin gets them in fyi.

 

I have seen the air version of the one that will look identical to the electric (same set up) The electric are going to be pricey from what my supplier said
