    2009 Aston Martin DB9 by Richie's Custom Detailing

    The owner of this 2009 Aston Martin DB9 contacted my local Aston dealer and wanted his car to look like a new car no matter what the cost. The car recently had the left rear quarter re-sprayed.

    As you can see in the pics this was not going to be a walk in the park as the paint was covered in deep RIDS.

    Sun shots before.













    Head lights were severely damaged as well.



    Inside under the metal halides.











    Head light before.







    Corrected.





    Hood 50/50





    From the other side.



    More defects.













    Lower left fender before.



    Corrected.



    Defects left by the body shop on the freshly painted panel.

    As with all your work, great job!

    It seems you have a great relationship with the Orlando Aston Martin dealership. They always have nice rides going through there, and from what I've seen, you get to work on most of them. Keep up the incredible work.

    Great work on the AM....did you get any PTG readings on the trunk lid? I only ask because I worked on a DB7 a few weeks ago and it had horribly thin paint on the back edge of the trunk lid; wondering if it is an ongoing problem with the AM's or just a fluke on the one I worked on.

    Amazing job on the Aston Richie! That's a beautiful car.

    Must be nice when you can say "whatever the cost." I wonder how much the dealership charged the owner.

    Don't you love it when these up-scale vehicles are taken through an auto-mated car wash? ugh...

    Very nice detailing save. Are you located in South Florida?

    Looks great, seems like they washed that car with a Brillo Pad. Would love you to share you procedure with us.
