    Ferrari F430 Interior Makeover @ the detailien HIVE

    This lovely yellow prancing horse dropped by the detailien HIVE for some much needed attention to its interior.


    Things looking good on the outside.




    But another story on the inside where all of the soft touch coatings have started to degrade, melt and is sticky to the touch. Especially so in our hot, humid Malaysian weather.


    Can anything be done or will the owner have to spend thousands for it to be replaced or resprayed.




    Lovely interior....


    Spoiled by the soft touch coatings on the plastic bits.


    After some detailien magic with the help of Optimum Power Clean:


    Before:


    After:
    Looking much better.

    After:








    Thanks for looking.

    More to come.

    How did you fix the scratches? They looked kinda deep for a mere cleaning.

    I was under the impression that if the plastics began to degrade like that, trying to clean them would only make it worse. Can you elaborate on how you cleaned and fixed those plastic areas?

    They look great now!

    Incredible. It looks like you replaced the plastic parts. If you could teach us how to correct such issues you'd be the hero of this site!
