2004 Marerati Befores

Surprisingly, there wasn't a terrible amount of contamination removed via claying.

Funny picture of how good a car can look out of the sun vs.

Upper Driver door before

And after

This panel was resprayed, and difficult to correct, even after five passes with twisted wool and extra cut there was damage remaining that ordinarily would be remove in one or two passes.

WOW those before pics were awful!!!(paint condition that is hahaha)
The one where the car is in the shade and partially out is a great way to show people either looking at a car or even buying one to deff make sure you take a look at it in direct sunlight lol. you did an amazing job on that maserati!!!!

After polishing pre dressing and touch up

Here you see another nasty deep scratch I did not attempt to remove via westanding. Right below the halogen.

You hit the nail on the head, I was glad the picture came out the way it did, it's a good example of how shady some can be when selling a car or even other avenues of photo deception. I have a good handful of afters that are still uploading, I thought they would be done by now but my com is running pretty slow.

It was really hammer, glad you got it to where it should be Brian, looks great....:cheers:

What a great turn around on a very poorly kept car. It seems your client was looking for a magician more so then a detailer, and it appears you gave him magic with the detail you performed. I certainly hope your excellent work was appreciated.

car looks 1000% better

That car was hammerd. You did a great job! Hope you taught the owner on how to wash and dry.

 

[Brian_Brice]

Thanks fellas, no I haven't went over proper washing with him yet, will do though.

Thanks Pat.

3m extra cut and a few different pads ranging from heavy cut twisted wool, purple wool, to orange lc pads.

op2 and green pads.

85rd and black/red pads.

z5 pro zfx'd x2 topped with z8.

zaio on the wheels and all non porous exteriors, I didn't take many glamor shots but the pics should tell the tale what was done.

Nice save Brian! That thing was hammered with swirls and holograms!

Such a shame to see nice cars that way.

 

[David Fermani]

Man Brian, that paint was beat up from the feet up! I love black Italian Sportscars with red interiors. You made it look so much better. Great work.

 

[karburn]

Patience and perseverance at its best. Well done. :applause:

 

[Brian_Brice]

Thanks for the kind words gentleman.

David,

Yeah it was tore up from the floor up, but I like the way you said it better. I was just glad to see what it looked like in black. As for the remaining crevices I might work the out on future maintenance but they definitely aren't the concern on this dd.

I haven't touched the interior yet but its most certainly the scheme I'd go with given the oppurtunity.

Ouch! Hammered for sure. Nice recovery Brian!
