Rare Porsche Turbo 3.6

This is a Porsche TUrbo 3.6, painted in Signal Green. Made one year, 1994 and so far all my searches have come up empty to find another one in Signal Green.


So you either love or hate the color. Me I simply dig the car. If you're going to have an exotic might as well have it really stand out, eh?

I have no BEFORE pics as it was overcast the day I started and I have no AFTER pics in the sun as today it is wet and cold but I do have a few inside AFTER pics to show you all.

I hope to get some outside shots Monday when the owner picks them but until then you can get an idea of what the car looks like....and yea I know, all cars can look great inside and I'm hoping it looks just as good if not better out in the sun.

I used Optimum Polish over about 90% of the paint with various pads to level and polish the paint. It has 4 coats of Opti-Seal over a 24 hour period.






























Anthony

Anthony..superb as usual ...But the color of the Porsche really showed the quality of the Poli Seal...

Now if I remember correctly it takes about 6-8 pumps to do a car..and there is about 200 pumps to a ounce...so it looks like Poli Seal will go a long ways...is that correct..

That green looks so wet..looks way better than the Zaino CS shots I have seen so far...

Thanks all

Yes it takes about 6 to 8 pumps for one car.......which also depends on the car size and how heavy one is with the pump. Ron seems to use more product than I do so Ron would get maybe 10 pumps while I would get about 8 on this Porsche.

Also, it is "Opti-Seal" and not Poli-Seal. The Poli-Seal is an all-in-one product while Opti-Seal is just a sealant.

Thanks,
Anthony

It looks like you did a great job but I can't say that I like the color to much.

Anthony, that's great work. I'm the wrong guy to comment on this paint however. I don't like any green but that one is truly terrible.
