ScheerSpeed Detailed: Black Porsche Carrera

well, this was another mobile detail, but with a twist. i did it at a Fire station! having never been in one boefore it was a cool experience! the firefighters were pretty cool guys to hang out with for the day. anyways, here's the detail of a Porsche Carrera.

Exterior:
-P21s TAW presoak
-CG CWG
-CG Waterspot remover (mixed in wash)
-CG Gray Clay
-ONR lube
-Alcohol 50/50 wipedown (after polish)
-CG Speedwipe
-Stoner's IG

Wheels/wells:
-P21s Wheel Cleaner Gel
-P21s TAW
-wesley's Bleche-wite
-Simple Green
-Meg's Hyperdressing
-Mother's Chrome polish

Engine:
-P21s TAW
-CG Fade2Black

Interior:
-CG Leather Cleaner
-Aerospace 303 protectant
-Zaino Z10

Correction:
-Menzerna SIP via Orange CCS (2 passes)
-Menzerna 85RD Via Black CCS
-FLEX XC 3401

Protection- CG jetSEAL109
LSP- CG 5050

Enjoy!!!


first impressions cn be decieving... dirt was covering the paint and it was overcast, so the swirls didn't look too bad at first... but was i ever in for a treat!











After wash and clay:

















50/50 after 1 pass of SIP. still not perfect, so it was going to be 2 passes all around



before/after SIP







After 85RD






















after re-wash to get out all of the polishing dust





FINISHED!!!





















all the little spots you see in these pics are dust/ microfiber hairs.

arrived at 9:30 AM, left at 10:30PM

thanks for looking!!

I'm about to cry with jealousy. I'd love to work inside a fire station.

Beautiful pictures too!

How big are the sections you polish? 12x12? I've been lowering my working section to about 12'x12' and getting better results.

You were left with a lot of haze, time to step up to a rotory.

That is one beautiful job! The paint on a Porsche looks so much better than our BMWs. As a professional, which manufacturer would you say has the best factory paint job? Thanks.

That's great work...but to work on that car from 9:30am-10:30pm takes some odd dedication....I could never do it - put it that way.
