Probably my all time favorite Porsche, I really enjoy doing 993's. They are challenging yet extremely rewarding! This car was in mint condition 9,000 miles! It just needed some polishing and jeweling. As a last step we used Menzerna topped with Swissvax Divine

A thorough interior cleaning to finish it off.

Here is what was done on the car:

Exterior

- Wheels were prepped with P21S Wheel Gel and cleaned up with various brushes
- Tires were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash and washed down
- Wheel wells were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash and washed down
- Wash down and rinsed
- Door jambs were cleaned up
- Claying
- Dried
- Paint inspected and measured
- Wheels protected with Swissvax Autobahn
- Tires dressed with Swissvax Pneu
- 2 Step Paint correction
- Inspection with Fenix, 3m Sun Gun, Infratech, and natural sunlight
- Paint sealed with Menzerna
- Swissvax Divine
- Rubber and Plastics Treated
- Exterior windows and mirrors cleaned and sealed
- Exhaust tips cleaned

Interior Detail

- All interior surfaces cleaned and prepared, including glass, and all
vinyl/plastic surfaces.
- Carpets and upholstery vacuumed.
-Leather surfaces are carefully cleaned, prepared and fed using the Leather Master

Wow guys, nothing short of stunning! The 993 is a beautiful car.

Thought of two questions while reading:

1) How do you remove old wax from plastic? Does Black Wow do it? I got some on the front license plate bracket of my old car years ago, and it never came off. Looked similar to the spot on that 993, so it reminded me to ask.

2) How do you guys like the 1Z Gummi? Is it just for protection, or is it a dressing too? If it helps freezing doors in the winter, that's reason enough to buy a bottle.

thats a good question. freezing doors are a PITA. did he ever get back to you on that?



also the car look great!!!

Curious. Do you think detailers take a little less car when washing the car because they're already going to polish out the existing imprefections and adding a couple via washing isn't the end of the world?

we use P21S TAW with a brush to clean up old wax residue, then we rinse thoroughly.

if needed we dress the trim with black wow or a dressing that fits the material

Gummi works great for both reasons.

Wonderful work on my favorite Porsche in my favorite color. When I think Porsche, I think 993 Turbo. It's just the standard of what a Porsche should be.
