Yes.
This Porsche has a lot of curves, both convex and concave plus thin, tight areas to buff not to mention taking off the grill under the louvers on the deck-lid.
I actually used this car for a video on how to tape-off a car here,
Online Classes
It would really help to have a person savvy with the iPhone and Facebook to take and upload pictures to my Facebook page on the fly as we work on this car.
Because the CQuartz coating needs 20 to 30 minutes before it can be wiped-off the paint we'll need a team of people working together to,
- Remove Swirls
- Polish to a high gloss
- Wipe with
- Apply the CQuartz
- Carefully remove the CQuartz
Then we can take some beauty shots of the results and I have a new special guest to help this Thursday night.

mike, another trick i used on my wifes mb sunroof fuzzy seal was to brush it thoroughly removing old polish etc then tape the metal side off and apply several coats of black shoe dye. worked like a charm and so far is bullet proof to foaming/washing etc.
the former owner of the car had ground off alot of the fuzz with a buffer so i didnt have much to lose to try the above.

Good tips!
Most non-detailing minded people don't even consider what a pain it will be to clean the fuzzy seal after the fact and most I've worked on are filled with white polish residue.
Car manufacturers really need to avoid using material like the fuzzy seal around a sun roof, it's just to hard to cover, too hard to clean and maintain.
The Porsche will be here Wednesday Afternoon so I'll inspect it as soon as it arrives.

Well, I guess I'll be there in spirit from Kansas.
Maybe I can do some work on my one-of-a-kind 2001 Grand Prix () while you guys are working on that.
