    Got a call from a client who wanted his 997 Carrera 4S detailed prior to putting it up for sale. He's got an Audi R8 purchase in the works and I will be posting that as soon as it gets done.

    This is a full interior & exterior detail, with a single-stage machine polish, just to freshen the paint up and get some gloss for more appeal from potential buyers. Not too many pictures on this detail, since the owner needed the car back fairly early.

    Paint Cleansing:
    Genuine Sheepskin Mitt via 2 bucket system
    Chemical Guys Citrus Wash n Gloss
    Poorboy's All Purpose Cleaner 3:1 ratio

    Paint Correction:
    Makita 9227 Rotary Polisher
    GI 5.5" Backing Plate
    GI 3" Backing Plate
