A long-time client contacted me to come out to Sac and do his girlfriend's new MazdaSpeed 3. It was in fairly good condition being so new, but had some special dealer-applied wash induced swirls. There was also some buffer trails and holograms from a bumper repaint that was done.
A 1 step correction was selected and resulted in ~85% removal of swirls and light scratches. The paint was sealed with 2 coats of Zaino (Z5pro followed by Z2pro). Wheels and exhaust were sealed with Optimum Opti-Seal. A fairly simple paint correction detail still can yield excellent results. Total time about 7 hours.
Upon arrival, on a very warm Sacramento day...
