Detailed: 1995 Supra (Owner is Anne Rice)

This is car that I just detailed this week. It is owned by Anne Rice, a well known author. It has 9k on the odometer with a price tag of 70k. Jeremy Blackwell of Speed4Sale is brokering the car for her. He has let me handle all of his detailing needs. I was honored when he asked me to do this one for him.
The paint was very scratched and had lots of deep swirls and strange circular scratches as well. He told me to take my time and I would be rewarded. I had 7+ hours invested in this one alone.

Here's the process....

XMT #3
(E2K Yellow Pad at #5 Setting)
2-3 Full Passes on some panels.

XMT Glaze
(E2K Blue Pad at #5 Setting)
2 Coats on entire car.

Souveran Liquid Wax
(E2K White Pad at #4)
2 Coats on entire car as well.
Removed by hand.

Befores....
Top targa...

Hood Shot Half and Half

Hmmm . . . any chance that car runs on blood instead of gas?

I'm pretty sure those strange swirls were caused by vampires.

You know she also wrote erotic novels under a pen name. Find anything kinky in the boot?

Awsome job as always. I need to get a number 3 or XMT or PB. I havePB 2.5 and 1 but I can't get the scratches out like Justin. Not that I would ever be able to come near Justin's level, but maybe I need a notch higher on the swirl remover.

Very nice work. I've worked on a black '97 Supra last week and I was really impressed with the quality of the paint. Nearly all of the scratches were able to be polished out. Toyota did a great job on the paint on these cars. If that damage was on a 2005 model car then it probably would have been through the primer. lol

It's hard to believe the asking price of these cars. $55K is a grundle of money for a car that was basically about $60K brand new. I know it is a collector car, but these motors are bulletproof and can still run 10 second ETs with 170,000 miles on the clock. Still, I would love to be able to get my hands on a bone stock Supra TT in that kind of condition.
