2006 Porsche C2S - Deep Blue Wetness!- Concorso
 
This was a treat a 2006 Lapis Blue C2S. This was a full detail. (sorry no interior shots forgot to take them) The car was in good shape but as you will see there are swirls and imperfections. Interior was in great shape need a nice vacuum, leather cleaning/conditioning and wipe down.

Einszett Cockpit
Einszett Detail Spray

Tons of towels

Procedure:

12. After each section was corrected I buffed off the excess polish with a MF Buffing Towel.
13. Applied Swissvax Cleaner Fluid and removed with MF Towel (removed after you apply in small sections, you don't want this to dray up)

Looks sweet! These darker metallic colors always give the best results. :thumbup:

Phil you are amazing! BUT what I would like to see is an early model Porsche, Benz, Ferrari, BMW or the like that is an absolute nightmarish pig of a mess to see the magic you can make. I worked for several detailers when I was younger and the true test was pulling a car from the river after a few days and bringing it back to life...any pics in your resume of these types of nasty jobs where you turned a PIG into a DIAMOND?

Good gawd that color really pops. Great Job.

PersonaNonGrata 07-09-2007 02:37 AM

Another amazing detail Phil! I learn quite a bit just by reading your write ups. :thumbup: Can't wait to get my hands on my Detailer's Domain order and get cracking, even if it is 110 degrees where I live. You had me inspired today. I was sweating my ass off wiping down the very dirty engine bay of the X5. :tsk: I'll have to wait for some P21S Autowash before I can really get it clean. The rest of the X5 had to settle for just a wipe down and a wash.

Lapis Blue is a gorgeous color and it shows of so many different shades of blue. That's the same quality that show off the swirls too. Great job making that Lapis look so deep.
