Well I first must say im very forutnate to have a client like this, last week I worked on his new Bentley and this is his latest toy in his ever changing collection. He's been waiting 2 years for this car and eventually it arrived last week. My first impressions of this car was WOW, it is a rocket ship, I have never seen anything quite like this. This car has put Lamborghini back in pole position, I have loved the 458 since its arrival but when we parked this next to the Ferrari it looked like a toy. When the car arrived i gave it a quick inspection and i must say the guys at Lambo did a great job. I was sure i would find sanding marks, pigtails, swirls.....There was some minor swirls and some holograms but the finish was the best ive seen for a exotic. Anyway enjoy!
There was a few signs left behind....attention to details guys!!!
Onto the wheels the car was already clean but i wanted to give it the once over anyway. Sonax Full Effect was used on the wheels and Megs APC+ on the tires and wheel wells. A variety of brushes were used
After the wheels were cleaned, I moved onto the paint. I first sprayed P21 Auto Wash to help break down any wax or glaze which was on the car. I then foamed the car with a mixture Dawn, CG Citrus Wash and Auto Wash
While the Auto Wash was soaking for a few minutes i got the q Tip out and went to work.
I let that sit for 5 minutes while I smoke a Fat Cuban
Right then my camera decided to die and i forgot my charger so i had to come back the next day to finish, i wasnt going to miss this one. The car was washed with 2 bucket method, dried and brought back in the garage for inspection.
i taped off the clear bra and any trim that might get in the way
For my test panel i used Megs MF system and that took care of the defects, that was followed by 85rd
The defects were really hard to pick up on the camera so have to look real close
The Lambo was being OPTI Coated because it will be used at the track so wanted to give it some extra protection. I started with the wheels, wiped with Alcohol first before application.
