[DETAIL] Porsche 911 Carrera Paint Correction / Detail + Hard Body
This unique Green Porsche 911 Carrera came to us requesting bit of a 'spruce up' to bring her back to life. The car was always cared for, but in normal circumstances usually via a hand car wash and/or with the wrong techniques.
Products used were the usual Menzerna FG500 with the RUPES P*ssY Polisher and Menzerna Wool Pad, also the DAS6 Pro + Surbuf Pads & Menzerna FG500 for harder to reach areas including 3" combination used, stepped down to Menzerna PF2500 and again to Menzerna SF4000 to really bring out the maximum amount of gloss and clarity from the paintwork.
As you can see below; marring, holograms and imperfections were obvious throughout all the paintwork which in turn hides this beautiful metallic in the green from coming out leaving a very 'dull' finish to a very nice Porsche!
Even the tail lights had evident swirls/spider webbing over them
Definitely not how a Porsche emblem should be shown!
Few heavier scratches were also found as you can see below on the front guard below the headlight
Using the Wheel Woolies and 1Z Einszett's new ColourTec Iron Wheel Cleaner to give the wheels a good clean over[/b]
One side high pressured off to compare..
1Z Einszett ColourTec eating through the Carbon (Brake Dust fall out), bleeding an indication of the carbon cleaning!
CCP's 3 Bucket Combo used with the soft Microfibre Wash Mitt and Wheel Woolies as well as Vikan Wheel & Arch Brushes
The Dodo Juice Fine Grade Grey Clay Bar did pick up quite a bit of contaminants from the paintwork, surprisingly a lot over the bonnet area.
Paint Thickness checked - tick

50 / 50 Shot
The beautiful metallic and colour slowly returning - as you can see the left shows uncorrected, the right single pass with colour and clarity already evident
The Plastic Trimmings also were quite weathered and required a bit of rejuvenation - of course Nanolex Trim Rejuvenator was the first product that came to mind. Just a couple drops at a time to leave the area looking fresh and new again. Once dry leaving a semi gloss factory like finish as it used to when it was new.

The Money Shot!
The Porsche's paintwork was finished with Wolfs Chemicals Hard Body for a nice deep, wet finish and Tyres with Duragloss 253 Tyre Dressing - perfectly suited to this Porsche to finish off!
Thanks for taking the time to look!

You guys make me want to own a darker coloured car, just so I can get that deep shine.
