Hey all!
My associate and I got the opportunity to detail one of the most beautiful cars in existence, an Aston Martin V8 Vantage.
This detail was a PITA! The paint on the Aston was incredibly hard and did not want to cooperate with us at all! It took 56 hours between the two of us!!! But when it was all said and done it looked amazing!
When the car arrived, we started with a visual inspection:

Some swirls and dirt:

Looks like the owner went off-roading!!

The lower portion of the car was pretty thrashed:

We then got started on stripping the LSP and clay:
