Great work! I have found the older Porsche paint to be incredibly soft and thin. Hope you had a good experience with it!

Great turn around!

It looks like it may be some fine scratching/abrasion. If that is the case do a test spot on it with some polish by hand. If that seems to work then proceed to finish it up. If it is a milky appearance as if water or moisture was trapped underneath, then try heating the area up with a heat...

Because of the ever-growing involvement of the insurance companies we have all moved out of the shop, either into management roles or we have joined the dark side (gone to work for the insurance companies). For those of us like myself that have moved into management roles- it isn't any easier-...

Beautifully done!

Awesome!

Sounds like a case of: You get what you pay for. Also, most mobile guys are not really equipped to repair rust- just minor cosmetic repairs on bumpers. I did this for a living 12 years ago- we would charge $125 for half a bumper and $250 for a full- at those prices there was a minimal profit...

Great turn around!

Welcome!

Great work!

Nice work!
