Black 2009 Genesis Sedan, major paint correction

[RaskyR1]

I did this on a while ago but haven't gotten around to posting it yet. Paint was rock hard on this thing, one of the hardest I've done and I ended up spending more time on it than planned.


Process:

Wash - Foamed with OPC/CGCW followed by 2BM wash and CGCW
Wheels - P21S Gel and various brushes
Tires - OPC, dressed with Hyper Dressing 3:1
Clay - Blackfire Clay and M34 as lube
Initial Correction Step - M105 on the GG6 with Surbuf pads
Intermediate polishing step - D300/MF on the GG6
Finishing Step - 106fa via rotary and Blue LC pads
Exhaust tips - Optimum Metal Polish
Protection - Blackfire Wet Diamond


Before pics:

Several deep RIDS that ran vertically all over the car, this was the worst of them. NOTE: For all of you water blade users out there...let this car be a lesson on why they SUCK!

I stayed away from the panel bend...not worth the risk in sanding.

Test panel after several passes with Surbuf/M105

Nice before and after of bumper cover...before

Incredible work Rasky.

How much more aggressive is the Surburf/M105 compared to MF/D300?

WOW!!! What a mirror finish!!
Insane reflections, I'll bet the customers jaw dropped wide open.

M105/Surbuf isn't a huge difference, but it is noticeable.
