The owner of this car has a wicked fast Trans Am (runs 9's) and since his car and mine make nearly identical power, there's always been a friendly rivalry between us and the occasion fun verbal joust! One day he PMed me (not a big suprise), about his Infiniti needing some serious work (was suprising since he is pretty much only concerned with racing).
When I showed up, the damage was worse than I thought. Having been hit by sprinklers with recycled water on a hot day had a horrific outcome on this car. And it was just made worse with all the heavy marring and swirls. The waterspots could be removed, but the deep black finish left behind would stand out like a sore thumb against the rest of the heavily swirled paint. So the decision was made to correct the whole car. I only had the one day to work on it, so it was going to be a long day. Thankfully the paint on the Infiniti was soft and worked easily.
Correction was done with Makita rotary with GI Evo backing plate + LC PFW + M105 with GI EVP. The GI EVP made for practically no dusting with the M105 and much better working time. This combo made great work of the waterspots. Was then followed by PCXP + LC white + Menz SIP. After multiple IPA wipedowns, LSP was Blackfire Wet Diamond.
Upon arrival
Lovely waterspots...
