1986 Porsche - Guards Red - Chris's Auto Detailing (Crystal Seal and BFMS)

[cleanmycorolla]

Hey! Just wanted to check in and share one of my latest fun and quick little jobs! This customer contacted me based of I detail I did for his friend and fellow Porshce owner. The owner owns serveal Porsche's and this one was his every other day driver! He wasn't concerned about perfect paint, he just wanted it really shiny, bring some of the red back to life! He knows he beats it up well, and driving it 3-4 days a week, it will take a beating, and its old! But that doesn't mean I couldnt bring some luster back to it. The paint was beat, but the inside he kept IMMACULATE, I was actually really surprised, apparently his wife is a neat freak and everything on the inside was spotless. So outside only job!

Products used:
UWW+ Rinselss Wash w/ UWW+ presoak
CG Sig Series Wheel Cleaner for Wheels and tires
CG NonSENSE to clean trim
Raggtop to clean and protect the top
NANOSKIN Fine Grade Sponge to prep the paint
Megs Ultimate Black on Trim
Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish to clean, prep and give some minor hiding of swirls
Blackfire Crystal Seal as the first layer of protection
Blackfire Midnight Sun as the topper

Before:






Paint was pretty wrecked


Some 50/50's:
Blackfire GEP did a decent job of filling in stuff and polishing it up nice. Provides a great base for Blackfire LSP's


Megs Ultimate Black Drying:

Those 80's Porsches are my favorites. I just love that goofy body style! Especially models with a more distinct 'flare' on the rear wheels.

Agree, it was like the one rainy day in LA, I was sad there were no good sun shots.

Awesome job. I would of loved to see this fully corrected.

Me too, my wallet also. I think though because this is his daily driver basically he accepts it. His other cars more collectible ones are very well kept. But I'm talking to him soon, I'm hoping we could at least do a light polish to knock some stuff out.
