Ferrari 360 Modena in Rosso Corsa!

Looks pretty decent..... but as they say, looks can be deceiving.

Proper lighting is required to properly inspect the paint.

The paint was very badly swirled with plenty of Random Isolated Deep Scratches (RIDS).

Can this paint be saved or should it be repainted?

The work begins....

First up, the headlights.

Due to the deep scratches, the headlights were wetsanded, compounded and polished to remove the defects and restore them something worthy for a Ferrari.

A test portion was carried out to determine the process required to correct the paint.

Do you have any after pics of the Ferrari script?

If you are not removing the script....what is your process to get that area cleaned and polished?

Thanks

Thanks guys! :xyxthumbs:

We use various products at our shop but mostly from Optimum. The RIDS were quite severe and I would say that we most were removed except the really deep ones.

Unfortunately my guys did not grab a shot of the afters.

We polish the areas in between by hand but you are absolutely right. The badge has to be removed for a 100% correction. However, this was not done in this case as the owner wanted a relatively quick paint correction done.


Great job on this beautiful car!
