2015 Porsche Carerra 911 GTS C.Quartz - Ottawa Detailing

[Waxed]

Hi everyone,

This was probably one of my most anticipated details for the year. Every car is special to me, however there is a few that get me excited With an MSRP nearing what is considered half the cost of my house, attention to detail is a must with a luxury vehicle like this.

The car was in for a full interior and exterior detail, along with 2 layers of C.Quartz topped off with ReLoad. Full interior detail along with specific attention to the leather due to full/faded spots.

Honestly thank you for the kind words. Coming from you especially I've started liking taking pictures a little more and always try to incorporate that with detailing. It is however, very time consuming and always takes away from when i'm on pace with detailing. (I'm always so focused)

Thank you, and now I can't edit them. Was really going through while writing the post yet somehow missed that. I'm using a Canon T4i

I almost opted for a Nikon D Series, but ended getting a good deal on this one.

Yes the porches are nice and not such a brutal ride.

 

[Mike@DedicatedPerfection]

Very nice work! I really enjoyed the pictures.

You mentioned, "followed through with FF3000". Where did you use this if you went PG1000, PF2500, and SF4000.

When your PG1000 runs out, grab FG400.

Thanks for sharing.

I made a mistake. I was taking my time writing the post and still made a error. FF3K was used prior and SF4K was the final pass product. Good eye I can't edit the post unfortunately. I'm sure FF would of been fine I just want that additional step.

FG is awesome have a 32oz cuts like a savage. I need to try the new ultra cut. Have you tried this at all? Menzerna super heavy cut?
