This 2010 Nissan GTR was from a referral from one of my other clients. This Customer had just bought this car a couple of months ago and recieved the car in this condition. This car was origanally saposed to be a wash and wax, but after explaining to the customer what potential this car had, we then decided to go for the paint correction. This car was scheduled for a 75%-90% correction.
 
Let's get this started, here is the car when I arrived
 
(notice all the wax residue on the edge of the clear bra)

First I degreased the tires using Megs Super degreaser

Then I applied Sonax Full Effect to the wheels

I used the wheel woolie to get into the wheels for a good cleaning.

Then I give the car a foam bath.

http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k126/ericwitt04/TruShine%20detailing/Black%20GTR-2/7e91f800.jpg
Then the car was brought in and clayed using Claymagic blue fine clay

Next I taped up all the plastic trim and edges of the clear bra

Notice that there is a slight haze left on the surface, this will be removed during the polishing/refinment stage.

The car was finished down with Menzerna 85RD on a LC Crimson pad, then the paint was sealed with one coat of Black Fire Wet Diamond.

The Rain was comming and the sun was hiding so these final pics will have to do.

Lol, well regardless of the circumstances, I would never lay one face down on the ground. But the reason for having it on my chair this time is because ive pulled my back some how, so having to bend over to the ground to pick it up wasn't feeling to good. Thanks though
