2014 Range Rover SuperCharged in for correction plus Cquartz Finest (3 Days)

[Pinpoint_Precision]

One of my VIPs finally got rid of his Maserati QuattroporteS and got this fresh new Range Rover. Since he has a 458 Italia Spider, he didn't feel the need of having another supercar.

I have seen and done over the years a lot of paint corrections so anything that I get I am not surprised but this car was new and it was different. We will get to it later so stay tuned and enjoy it.

Picking up the car to bring to my shop.





Car condition upon arrival.

Some nasty water spots





More dirt upon dirt





Pillars before (this part of the car would hunt me later)



Washing stages and decon begins......



This combo would be the combo that would attack the paint to a flawless finish.



Also Cquartz Finest (2 Coats)

Pads

FlashPads
LC CSS White Pads
Flex3401 for the correction process

Please be advised, this thread has tons and tons of pictures. I highly suggest getting some popcorn and a nice Cold Coke or Beer.

Paint Condition before (IronX+Nanoskin Towels used to decon and smooth it out the paint)





Remember about the pillars?!? Worse condition I have eve seen on a brand new car.



50/50 after compounding only.



Far away



Up close





50/50 on the doors after compounding only




Taillights before



After






50/50 of the side of the car after compounding only



More before pictures





After all the compounding was performed, it was time for the polishing stages to refine the paint.

How important is the polishing.

Left side was after heavy compounding/Right side after polishing.



Huge improvements as it can be seen.

Now all the pictures was after polishing and refinement of the paint.

After



Pillars before/after polishing (don't mind the dust, that would be taken care of at the end)





Taillight Before/After 2 steps










Before/After 2 steps





After polishing









After all the polishing was done.

Nothing but amazing gloss and reflections.





AutoGeek supporter of course.



Look at the flakes.



After 2 long days of polishing and refining the paint it was time for Cquartz Finest







After 2 coats the car was pulled outside to get the little bit of the hot sun left to speed up the process. I then pulled the car back into my shop and left curing again under IR curing lamps.

I usually pull the car outside not just to cure fast but to inspect for high spots.


Car left over night for its photoshoot in the morning.

To be continued.... beauty shots!

[Pinpoint_Precision]

After 3 long days, it was time to unveil the beast. A vehicles this beautiful should always look its best.



Beauty Shots





Wheels also got a nice coat of Cquartz Finest













Finally got my DirectTV in. It gets lonely so times, not at anymore. Lol





Pinnacle Onyx was used for the tire dressing.









All the trim got a nice coat of CarPro Dlux



Love this shot
















To end, a nice beading shot.




Thanks for looking and I hope you guys enjoyed it.

how do you like the flash pads thus far and are you using them on the whole vehicle or spot correction? btw, nice work...

[Pinpoint_Precision]

In this particular car I used on the entire car. I got 3/6'' pads. I love it. Definitely one if not the best pads. They aren't flexible which it takes a little getting used to but they correct the paint so nicely. Amazing stuff. If you don't have it, you definitely should try it. A game changer for sure.

Night and day difference, great write-up... The first picture was very 'creative', almost put us in the scene.

You're blessed working with such nice cars, but more blessed are your customers having you around. Truly.

This is top notch work and I've enjoyed a lot watching - thanks a lot for sharing.

Indeed, my favorite pic is this one:



Simply, WOW!

Kind Regards.

Thanks Tato. The white car, my SisterinLaw's Toyota got the same treatment as well. The RR is so big and he car is so small, that it fit on the picture perfectly.

Wow! Awesome work buddy

Thanks Sicoupe.
