This client came to me as a referral. I had seen the vehicle a few months back and spoke to the owner. He is now ready for some correction and protection!
Car is covered in hazy paint, swirls, scuffs, some water spotting, and is in general need of a little attention. I’m going to give it plenty of attention!

Beautiful work on a fantastic car. However, I'm a little shocked at the thickness of the paint. Has it been heavily worked on before?

[Aaryn NZ]

Nice work Scott. :props:

Interested in the answer to TTQ B4U's question too. I very rarely see Lamborghinis in my neck of the woods let alone work on them but geeze, that is scary thin.

Fantastic results, I bet the owner was over the moon happy with that. Very nice mate, thank you for sharing & Merry Christmas my friend. :props:


Aaryn NZ. :dblthumb2:

[Sizzle Chest]

TTQ: I was a bit surprised as well. I am not sure if it has been corrected before, I asked my client and he was not sure if the previous owner had any work done to it, but my suspicion is that it definitely did in the past. I do see some 'exotics' having somewhat 'thinner' paint than others.

Aaryn, thanks for the kinds words mate! He was ecstatic with how it turned out! Merry Christmas to you and yours as well!!!

How’s the 303 fabric top cleaner? Worth it to buy?

you don't have to be an A$$ man to appreciate the back end of that car. what a ride, you did a spectacular job with that car. I can only guess how much you boosted the value of that car. I would have loved to seen the smile on that guy's face. and I bet He's still wearing it !
