Ferrari 355 F1 Spyder - Wayne Carini Cars & Coffee Tech Session Car

Since Wayne Carini will be our guest at the next Cars & Coffee on Saturday December 13th,


Wayne Carini at Autogeek's Cars & Coffee on Saturday December 13th



I have a Ferrari detail coming up that I'll have here for our C & C Tech Session.

Note: This is NOT the car but some pictures I snagged off the Internet showing the color and what this Ferrari body style looks like. I should have pictures of the actual car by next week.

Dave, the owner says he has not touched this Ferrari since he purchased it and the paint feels rough to the touch and has swirls and scratches and can really use a professional detail.


Here's what a 1998 Ferrari 355 F1 Sypder looks like...





The Tech Session at our Saturday Cars & Coffee show start at approximately 9:15am and go for about 15 to 20 minutes. They are short and to the point, and share tips and techniques you can use in your own garage when working on your own car.

Join us here at Autogeek on Saturday December 13th and learn how to take the neglected paint on a Ferrari 355 F1 Spyder and restore a true show car finish worthy of an exotic care like this...

There will also be my buddy Mark's 1987 Ferrari 328 GTS on display to show what the paint on a Ferrari should look like. Mark was the winner of the 2014 Detail Fest Autism Speaks Charity Raffle for a complete detail inside and out.

Just this week I've started receiving TV channel Discovery Turbo on my decoder and I could already watch 3-4 episodes of Carini's Chasing Classics. Gorgeous show.

Two things I liked most from what I saw:

a) Wayne Carini using Pinnacle Products (Crystal Mist) to wipe down (gold plush large towel) before the car goes to display / auction sale. He said ~'This makes the whole difference when selling a car'.

I was doing the same thing today with Pinnacle WW with Carnauba before delivering a car for customer, and immediately came to my mind:

'This makes the whole difference when delivering a just washed car!'... Enjoyed the scene and got confidence hearing that. It really does.

b) Carini deciding within his father to add a single stripe to the tire of a classic Lincoln (if I can remember, I'm not very adapted to classics (yet)). 'Dad' said just after: 'Now it looks properly classic!' (what I heard in translation).

That was gorgeous, how a single stripe added so much to such incredible car... Sure, his experience and feeling for classics said it all.

I'm also looking forward if I see you (@Mike Phillips) in a episode, do you appear on some Chasing Classic episodes on air at discovery turbo channel?

Wish you all an enjoyable car & coffee, don't forget sharing pics with us down here!, mere mortals ahhaha

Looking forward for Ferrari workaround and results, that blue is really beautiful.

Kind Regards, from Brazil.

Talked to Dave the owner today and he's confirmed the Ferrari will be here. I'll be demonstrating quite a few products on it and will be posing pictures for sure.

Our demo car is here!

For tomorrow's Tech Session we'll be showing how to remove the swirls in this Ferrari using the same products, pads and tool Wayne uses at his detail shop.

No Flash...




No flash overhead shot....

Ready for tomorrow....


My buddy Mark dropped his Ferrari off today. This is the one Frank and I buffed out a few months ago. I re-polished it today Pinnacle Advanced Swirl Remover and then machine applied Pinnacle Liquid Souveran Wax.






Looking good and this car will be on display inside the new Show Car Garage for tomorrow's Cars & Coffee.


All the action starts at 8:00am sharp so if you're local be here!

Wow! Thanks for sharing. This Ferrari looks great!

The 328 looks wonderful! I just corrected my F355 F1 Spider last week and I'm loving the way it shines in the sun. Can't wait to see how this one turns out. I guess I'll have to make a post about mine soon

One of my favorite models of all time. Still have the posters. Great selection of cars Mike. Fun project for sure.
