Porsche 911 Turbo 996 Premium Detail

Here's a quick look at a stunning 996 turbo we worked on last week. We performed a full correction on the paint to get it as close as possible to perfection. Here's a quick summary of the process used on this one-of-a-kind beauty.

• Wash - ONR
• Clayed with Sonus clay bar
• Swirls and defects machine corrected with Menzerna PO85RD 3.02 using Edge (3M) white foam pads.
• Polishing was performed with Menzerna PO106ff nano polish using Edge (3M) white foam pads.
• Final polishing / perfecting with 3m Ultrafina SE with 3M polishing pads.
• Paint was cleansed with a IPA (Isoprol Alcohol) solution wipe down to remove all filling oils for final inspection.
• LSP was the Concourse Carnauba paste was GuruWax.
  

Here is the typical correction achieved.










After all the machine polishing was completed, we rolled the car outside into the SC sun to get a good look at the paint in the sun for inspection. We washed the car here again to remove all polishing residue and to clean the wheels, jams and moldings.








GuruWax Premium carnauba wax was applied by hand using a premium microfiber applicator to get a nice consistent thin coat.





GuruWax is a pleasure to work with. Smooth, easy application and removal that leaves a deep rich glow.



And the results...

Porsche Boxter Premium Detail

This Porsche Boxter received the Premium Detail to bring it back to its "former glory".

The process started with a deep under carriage and wheel cleaning with a safe citrus degreaser solution cut 1:4. Wheels and brakes were agitated with various brushes.



The entire car was washed then with Meguiar's Gold Class soap.


There were some heavy bonded contaminants so we opted for gray agressive clay to get the paint work perfectly clean prior to polishing.


After cleaning, the car is dried with a microfiber waffle weave cloth.


Taping trim and edges is an extra step to prevent damage to vulnerable areas.


Correction was performed with Menzerna SIP on a Lake Country purple foamed wool pad at about 1,600 rpms.








Two passes were required in some areas with deeper defects.




We finished down with a fine polish (Menzerna 106ff) to bring out a perfect finish.



We applied a coat of Duragloss TPP 105 to lock in the shine followed by a coat of the all new Guruwax to give it depth and that Concourse level finish.
