Here is the car when I arrived. This is the 4th car for this client, he traded in his M6 for this S5.

The owner was unhappy with the clear bra condition, so he asked me to remove it.

After an ONR wash, the car was clayed with ONR as lobe and Meg's Heavy clay.

After over 40 hours, here is the car with Opti Coat on top.

For what ever reason, the finish was covered in RIDS instead of swirls. :buffing:

Wow!!!

That opti-coat pro is some glossy looking stuff. Of course those blue colors on the last few show-n-shines lend themselves to that sort of shine anyway, imo...but that coating...man that looks nice.
 
While for me all Audi cars are #### with exception of most versions of A8 like A8 L W12 or R8, it's a matter of taste in the end.
This is very angelic paint colour & finish shows it in full.
The car owner is right about clear bra is junk ( you can tell him in Israel we call it a condom), whatever you did with this car 40 hours (only God knows) I give you 10 out of 10.

Thank you all for your positive responses.

I see Zach answered the Flickr question.
 
That paint looks unreal! Excellent job. You are certainly a master of your craft.
 
Nice job for new car prep here. Honestly it sucks alot that new cars are hammered. I have family members getting an Explorer Platinum and a Lincoln MKC Reserve already. Lets see if the paint is hammered or not
