Hey guys, I did these two a little while ago on a nasty, rainy day....thank goodness for indoor working conditions! These two had to be done quick as they were both sold and were going to be picked up soon.


Car #1.....


Upon arrival

Removing the "shipping protection film"

Interior needed some tidying up

This is how I like to get the cars, everything wrapped up. These cars come straight to me after they have completed the PDI and do NOT go through the typical dealer prep that most others go through....

This was not posed....was like that when I opened the door. Couldn't be a cooler placement!

Some more interior issues that needed to be addressed....

Where the "shipping protection plastic" used to be

After claying and polishing with 106FA to correct minor swirls and the delicate carbon fiber, it was sealed with Blackfire Wet Diamond.

Oh how I'd like to "Get to know" this car!

http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb71/immaculate_reflections_showcase/2011%20basics/2011062.jpg















Exterior got the same treatment as car #1.

What a reflection. It looks like chrome. Very nice.

-Both Corvettes are so much nicer looking now...Excellent work! :dblthumb2:

-Good gig you have going at the dealership...(From noticing a few of your other postings.)

-By any chance of good fortune, do the owners of the Corvettes call upon you to detail their vehicles at later dates? Seems to me they should!

-Also...May I ask what product(s) were used on the door cards, dash, seating of each vehicle?
(It seems to me, from your photos that Car#2 has one of the slightly massaged interior upgrades...including the 'thrones'.)

Thanks in advance for any info you may provide.

The cars look great, amazing job!

I like the looks of the 106 too, I'm trying to choose a finishing polish and that may fit the bill to finish the Menz SIP/IP I frequently use.

As another posted stated, I'm curious if any of the owners ever contact you later for your services?

I went with a friend to pick up his new Corvette at the Factory. This is where the car is presented to you after you get a tour of the assembly line. The cars are supposed to be "super selected and inspected" to be absolutely perfect.

Your two Corvettes looked better!

If more new car dealers had their cars prepped by you I might be more inclined to buy more cars brand new instead of a couple of years old.

Awesome work, those never get old to look at. Gorgeous cars.

I saw the title of this thread and couldn't help but think, "Of course they do". You are the man when it comes to the Vettes.

Thanks! 106 is a perfect fit for harder paints where SIP also works well.

Its a special mix of ONR and Megs APC in a light concentration that works very nicely. Yes, car 2 has the upgraded interior option.
