Complete Alfa Romeo 159

[malypb]

Welcome

I used part of my vacation to beautify the wonderful Alfa 159 in a very deep black color. The interior has been thoroughly vacuumed and cleaned, seats covered with a beautiful red leather cleaned and protected and all plastic parts refreshed. From the outside, after a thorough washing and claying, I did a two phased paint correction to make the car almost perfect (I left a few larger scratches whose removal was too risky). Paint on the car gave me a lot of problems and require experiments and changes in techniques and products, as some elements were painted, each different, for example, the hood was covered with a super-hard coating, and the left passenger door super-soft. At the end I secured using appropriate products all paint, glass, plastic, chrome and rubber elements.

Nice results. Surprised to see nearly 100 views and no replies. I like the front end of that car. Very different and unique. Love that gloss, too.

Great work once again! It should be illegal to drive that car for sure now because not only have you made it look stunning but the car itself is a real looker!
