R8.....Coffee for anyone????

[uniquedetailing]

This was another car in my customers collection, when I first saw the car I was like that a weird looking black, I cant say I like that but When I brought this car outside the colour is something else. I enjoyed working on this car although there was it fair share of defects.

There was its fair share of defects in the paint, this would get a full correction and interior. Start with the wheels, i used Sonax for the wheels, great wheel cleaner

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-yMJL0b7DkZU/Tk3ZSna4OeI/AAAAAAAABbI/qSuJP60eR44/s640/DSCN0915.JPG

Various brushes were used to agitate the wheels

This is how they should look

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-_LQrZFkXQoE/Tk3ZV3sGEhI/AAAAAAAABbg/URdtSZxpahQ/s640/DSCN0920.JPG

I then gave the car a pre-rinse and then sprayed the car with P21s Auto Wash

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-BHNDqoQW36M/Tk3ZXRKugnI/AAAAAAAABbo/xwDKr8xkuLs/s640/DSCN0922.JPG

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-cqRMT26iRTc/Tk3ZWh0nJoI/AAAAAAAABbk/86u3sjkgXvU/s640/DSCN0921.JPG

I let the Auto Wash dwell for a few minutes before i foamed the car down with Dawn and GG Citrus Wash

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-r1Izl8NQ_y0/Tk3ZZn7Vj1I/AAAAAAAABb4/V1UFWeeQHts/s640/DSCN0925.JPG

Again that was left to dwell for several mintues and i used a swissvax brush to agitate trim pieces then washed with 2 bucket method

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-2wjgXIiBVfs/Tk3ZbMGAQqI/AAAAAAAABcA/jZtpgJks_U8/s640/DSCN0927.JPG

Then rinsed off before claying

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-F0YlN-tPdcw/Tk3Zb-lgcDI/AAAAAAAABcI/zr2gx8tI56A/s640/DSCN0928.JPG

The car was brought in and clayed with DI fine clay and DoDo Juice Born Slippy. I then blew the excess water off and dried the car

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-fkMpysWH6EU/Tk3ZgDT1TSI/AAAAAAAABcc/ZJlLqkL4F-k/s640/DSCN0933.JPG

Onto the correction, I used several different combos on this car and tools, I used my flex and makita for this job

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-T2RCt_2Gg70/Tk3ZgiiOiFI/AAAAAAAABcg/hajXO2Qdt8w/s640/DSCN0934.JPG

After couple passes with MF system, I was looking for more correction

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-mQQhla3T09I/Tk3ZhjkHflI/AAAAAAAABck/DFBgwbAnRAk/s640/DSCN0935.JPG

I tried out the Tang pad/D300

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-dr7E1LlbxLg/Tk3ZrPbj_uI/AAAAAAAABdg/97gK7sT8y98/s640/DSCN0951.JPG

After the compounding was done i went back over the car with Tang M205

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-2I34M9VgQ6k/Tk3ZsEF4E4I/AAAAAAAABdk/cuUj1PiV94A/s640/DSCN0952.JPG

[Twister]

Beautiful job, car looks amazing. I like the color but I don't like the tan accent color.

[ArkayoDeetayo]

First off, amazing job once again...

but man where are you finding these cars/customers?

First a Ferrari, then a Porsche, then now a R8?! Im sure you are making quite a bit of cheddar on these high end toys...

Nice R8 but I don't like that tan paint, I don't even know what that part of the car is called

[Robert_Conklin]

Nice job...I would drive it PROUDLY! No matter what color combination it was!! Ha ha
