    Beautiful 911 in Gentian Blue Metallic get's coated

    Should you somehow goon up a rotor though, the cost af a set of replacements is apparently more than a little depressing.
    Would someone accidentally mess up the way they look if they sprayed an acid based wheel cleaner on them? If so that sounds like a nightmare.. Stuff like that is why I never hose down an engine. But $13k brakes sound like even bigger trouble.

    Someone smarter than me would be who to ask on the damage to PCCB rotors but at a replacement cost of $5k each, I'd be running away if presented w a set to clean Beautiful 911 in Gentian Blue Metallic get's coated

    And I am also afraid to really deep clean an engine Beautiful 911 in Gentian Blue Metallic get's coated

    That’s what sucks.. When you’re face to face with a situation like that.

    I remember the day I had to clean this set of gold plated Dayton wheels.. I thought to myself “ok I know from experience wire wheels are a PITA to get fully clean and these certainly weren’t anywhere near clean and it was my job to get them perfect, but 1st of all can I even spray something like Wheel Brightener on them”?

    “And what about brushing them? Omg I better not scratch them because gold is supposed to be a soft metal right”?

    Lol. Over analyzing to the max! Smh.

    That is probably the nicest blue I have ever seen on a vehicle. Nice work.

    TTQ B4U, what do you use to polish narrow/thin panels? do you use the Beast/Supa Beast and edge with the pad? btw, the 911 looks fantastic!
