2011 Audi Avant

2011 Audi A4 Avant (wagon) S line
52,000 miles
Phantom Black Pearl Effect

This is one of my client’s daily drivers. He wanted it corrected and protected. The vehicle was covered with ridiculous water spots/etching. It also had some swirling, marring, and some areas that were hit/rubbed against that had scuffs and deep scratches.
The etching was reduced to an acceptable level, however, it ideally needed to be wet sanded to remove these defects and that was not in the cards for his daily driver.

Ooooo, an estate, I love those things! The 'big' pictures are even scarier than the IG ones, but as usual the Doc takes care of business. Great work Scott.

Next year don't book anything for Jan 10-12!

Nice work Scott.

Ya know, I've never seen an Audi with chrome rims before - well at least not factory ones anyhow. Or have I ever come across an Audi with the light grey leather either. I kinda like it, it makes for something different than the dark grey/black leather that seems to be the only option down here.

Great turn around here though mate. As much as I enjoy doing the SIV vehicles, this kinda thing is my bread & butter & although we know that with some more time under the knife they would be even better but being a daily driver the line has to be drawn huh. Bet the owner was stoked with the results.

Great post Scott, thank you for taking the time to share mate.

Thanks Aaryn! Yeah, I don't recall seeing any with chrome either! I understand man...sometimes just as satisfying!

Client was thrilled! He was going to sell it/trade it but he's going to keep it now! That's enough feedback for me!!!
