2009 Azure in need of correction. This car was taken care of very poorly by a previous owner and several dealerships.
Prep consisted of fully stripping the finish of all prior wax and glaze before correction.
These wheels set the car off very well, not a standard option for any Azure, they come from the Bentley Brooklands
Wheels cleaned and tires stripped of all old dressing
After
Onto correction...
Initial condition of the finish was like this, everywhere. Minor marring with lots of RIDS and fine scratches, some scratches ran 8-9inches in length!
50/50 after 2-3 hits compounding + polishing
Few shots of the trunk, lighter defects in some areas
Heavier in others
Rear bumper was plagued and almost gray, even after wool and foam compoudning only about 80% of the defects were removed
Before, no need for light
After
The trunk area had some scratches too deep to remove with polishing so out with the DA machine and Megs unigrit sanding discs
DA sanding at speed 3.5 using the 3inch disc
After sanding
After compounding the scratches were removed
After finishing
Hood shots before and after
After compounding
After jeweling, no LSP yet
