This was another car in my customers collection, when I first saw the car I was like that a weird looking black, I cant say I like that but When I brought this car outside the colour is something else. I enjoyed working on this car although there was it fair share of defects.

There was its fair share of defects in the paint, this would get a full correction and interior. Start with the wheels, i used Sonax for the wheels, great wheel cleaner

Various brushes were used to agitate the wheels

I then gave the car a pre-rinse and then sprayed the car with P21s Auto Wash

I let the Auto Wash dwell for a few minutes before i foamed the car down with Dawn and GG Citrus Wash

Again that was left to dwell for several mintues and i used a swissvax brush to agitate trim pieces then washed with 2 bucket method

Then rinsed off before claying

The car was brought in and clayed with DI fine clay and DoDo Juice Born Slippy. I then blew the excess water off and dried the car

Onto the correction, I used several different combos on this car and tools, I used my flex and makita for this job

After couple passes with MF system, I was looking for more correction

I tried out the Tang pad/D300

After the compounding was done i went back over the car with Tang M205

That car is SLICK!! Interesting colors. Very good job with the correction!
 
Great job! Like the color but would prefer the blades in something else maybe the CF ones with that color?
 
Beautiful job, car looks amazing. I like the color but I don't like the tan accent color.
 
First off, amazing job once again...

but man where are you finding these cars/customers?

First a Ferrari, then a Porsche, then now a R8?! Im sure you are making quite a bit of cheddar on these high end toys...

Nice R8 but I don't like that tan paint, I don't even know what that part of the car is called
 
Nice job...I would drive it PROUDLY! No matter what color combination it was!! Ha ha
