2008 Quadruple Black Porsche 911- Paint Correction & Pretection

David, you really should consider placing the jar on a mf though, just to be on the safe side, if that thing was to slide on you,(which if it doesn't maybe you haven't made the surface slick enough yet and you need to get back to polishing) you'd just create more work for yourself, or even possibly unpolishable damage.

now that how that car should of looked when it left the dealership. the dealers just don't care when it comes to making the car look the way it should be. nice car also but i happened to see it is a tiptronic trans. must be a chicks car.. ha ha ha ha

A quick question, do you also polish the mirrors? (I mean the painted parts of the mirrors of course)...

Master work, my friend.

I work as a dealer's detailer at BMW in my town and you don't know how many times I curse the plant and the harbour guys for letting inferior cars out. However, I try my best to work the paint until it's straight where it belongs. I don't want customers bitching about our cars.

Great work, do you give lessons?

Nah. I usually prop the hood up so the container lays flat or is resting against the emblem. Even if it were to slide(which there's no way if would), the container is plastic(and cleaned off) & wouldn't scratch the freshly sealed finish. Thanks for looking out though..

Yup. It's a female's vehicle. They say the autos are faster in these cars. I wonder?

Yes. Pretty much all the painted surfaces are buffed and sealed. If my rotary won't reach a certain area, I'll do it by hand.

Thanks. On a vehicle with this many defects/imperfections, it would have to be night time for a trained eye NOT to notice them. It surprises me to no end with this happens and people can't correct the problem.
Actually, I'm in the process of mentoring another forum member. He's worked on a few cars with me so far & is coming alone very nicely. It's nice to train people that have ground level talent already in place. Plus, I find it very difficult to complete even a brand new vehicle in 1 day lately. Having another person helping me allows more things to be addressed in the repair process.
