2014 Maserati Ghibli in for new car prep detail with CQuartZ plus Xpel

GoldRushRally member, my client wanted his car to be fully prepped and protected.

The car wasn't that bad so but it sure needed some help.

Upon arrival.

Decon begins.....

To really show the condition of the paint, for a brand new ride, that's not acceptable.

50/50

Pillars Before

50/50

After

After the car fully polished.

Look at those flakes.

Not a lot of of before pictures on this project, mainly because the paint wasn't on that bad shape.

After polishing the entire car, IPA and all, the car was finally ready for coating.

After the coating was applied, I pulled the car out to cure.

After long hours, the car was finally finished.

Beauty Shots.

The Xpel was installed on the full front, hood, bumper, mirrors and headlights.

Thanks for looking.

Wonderful as always, impressive the way new cars of this value presents such lack of finishing and such defects.

Thankfully it's now refinished by one of the best I know, you are the MAN!

How did you work the side pillars?

Congratulations on such work,

Kind Regards.

Nice work, I've seen a blue Maserati running around here with the GoldRush logo down the side, TeamBleuBalls IIRC, LOL!

Those Ghibli's look awesome, love the red interior shot you posted, just love it! They've got a medium blue for this car that's incredible!!

Great save early in the car's life!!!

Thank you so much. I did everything myself. I like it simple. I am still tweaking here and there. I use Ipage, drag and drop very easy but I got more evolved and all, so a lot of that I coded myself. I like how clean it looks, staying away from black on grey. My clients are old, some of them can't see that well. Hehehe
