    2014 Dodge Charger - Paint Correction & Opti-Coat Pro by Mr. Sparkle Detailing Long Island, NY - Dealership Rotary Buffer Trails Inside

    New client came to me with his nearly brand new 2014 Dodge Charger. Still with temporary tags in place, the dealership had 'detailed' the car for him and well, you know the story.

    Possibly one of the worst hack jobs I've seen. They spared the trim (usually also part of the destruction) but the paint was just a mess. Rotary buffer trails everywhere, swirl marks, and overall just lack of gloss.

    2 step correction with D300 followed by Menzerna Power Finish






















    Vehicle was then protected with Opti-Coat Pro










    There are no buffer trails in this dojo

    Nice work! Did you find dodge paint to be super hard? I did a 2012 Challenger last weekend and found it to be quite hard.

    Excellent work! I hope they got rid of the guy at the dealership that hacked up the charger!

    Nice work getting the DISO out!!! I cant believe a dealer would actually let a car leave in that condition...

    not really. if anything on the soft side but not terrible. but this was a 2014. They may have changed the paint since 2012. and really every car is different. you never know.

    Excellent job. That brand new car was in pitiful condition.

    In Brazil, we generally would say after seeing a thread/result like this:

    Wow, you 'Killed the snake and showed the stick'!

    **the stick that was used to 'kill the snake'

    Apart from any verbal misinterpretation, someone chiming in defense of the snakes, or anyone saying you can show a stick and actually have 'not killed the snake', this (in my country) literally means:

    You've done an awesome work and it's evident so you are showing and proving it leaving any doubt behind.

    ... and so you said 'There are no buffer trails in this dojo'.

    Congratulations on this one, and thanks for sharing.

    Kind Regards.
