2007 Porsche 911CarreraS with factory Areokit, perfected by Bella Macchina

I haven't been doing a lot of write up's lately, so I thought I would share this one since it belong's to a forum member. Orlando (f.m. Vizman) asked about a quality detailer in the South East section on Autopia. Brian and Orlando had been in contact since, and we scheduled a full day of fun on a recent trip to Miami.
Orlando was very clear in his instructions and desires, make the car as perfect as possible. Unfortunatly this Porsche had some terrible buffer trails and swirling and almost looked gray in appearance. Brian and I set in for a long day, and 20 man hours later had this car glowing. Orlando was kind enough in invite us back in the morning to capture some after shots.

Sorry for the lack of process photo's, but obviously with a car that needed this much work, we cannot spend valuable time documenting everything. I promise I will make it up to you guys with a very detailed write up in the future on some cool cars we have lined up.

For now...

Before pictures...



Difference in color...



The paint correction took approx. 18 hours to complete, done with a combination of Edge and Meguiar's wool pads using Meguiars M105. This was followed by Menzerna SIP on LC White CCS pads (both 7.5 inch and 4 inch) and finished by jeweling the paint with a 50/50 mix of ClearKote RMG and Optimum Polish on a LC Blue Pad at low RPM's to get it right.
An area was checked with a Prep-Sol wipedown to ensure everything was perfect, then continued to jewel the paint to perfection.

After was jeweling we followed with ClearKote Vanilla Moose topped with Natty's Blue paste. The rims where cleaned and primed with Zaino AIO and topped with JW Acyrlic Trigger. The glass was primed and cleaned with JW Prime Strong and sealed with JW Acyrlic Trigger x 2.

The exhaust was hand polished with 0000 Steel Wool, then topped with Deep Finish Deep Chrome and Deep Finish Deep SWAX. Plastic, trim, and seals where cleaned with Megs #39 and protected with 303 Protectant.

After polishing, the Porsche was foamed up using Zaino Z7, then rinsed using de-ionized water.
