OCDetail - Jet Black Tesla Cquartz Finest

[Jsmooth]

"Why should I detail my new car? I just got it! It doesn't need any work!" Common things we hear a lot as detailers. To this day 1000's of cars later I've never seen a new car I couldn't make look better. I stole this quote from my 9th degree buddy "Showroom quality????? I'd never do that poorly!". Here was a perfect example, this Model S has only 600 miles and the customer was little un sure as to why it needed any prep work before a cquartz finest application.... Well pictures speak 1000 words!

After a wash decon I could inspect the paint. No special lighting needed to see the damage here

With lighting you can see there are some big issues here!

The hood was covered in major rids and staining from what ever was left on the surface for extended periods

Better!!! No fast forward, we spent about 13 hours doing correction on this paint before it was ready for the Finest... Drum roll please!

It's a shame what a new car can look like! Beautiful work my friend:)

Joe, that looks amazing! I hope your client is now "enlightened".

That paint was really beat up for such a low mileage car! Good save. Looks the way a black car should now :)
