Default 2007 Porsche 997 Turbo BLACK/BLACK!

2007 Porsche 997 Turbo full detail:

This was a new car that has 13xx miles on it. Even though the car is new it had some minor imperfections and was never washed. The customer wanted to wait till he could find someone to do a full detail for him...so 4 months after he purchased it he found me []

The exterior was definitely dirty, car was never clayed and never polished never been washed!

Interior wasn't all to bad just a wipe down and leather feeding.

Engine not bad at all just cleaned it up.

cleaning the Shmitt after each panel was soaped up by dunking it in the bucket with the grit guard at the bottom, rinse and clean the pad and continue on to the next panel repeat till you finish washing each panel.
8. After your wash the car rinse car off throughly
9. Since there was no sun out and it was cool, I sprayed Adam's Detail Spray on the panels and proceeded to clay the car (Adam's Clay Bar) after each panel and each window was clayed I used the WW Drying Towel to wipe the excess detail spray off.
10. Car is clayed and dried.
11. Used the Metabo with the Menzerna 85rd to polish out all the minor imperfections.
12. After each section was corrected I buffed off the excess polish with a MF Buffing Towel.
13. Proceeded to polished out the headlights and tail lights with the 85rd.
14. With a MF Towel I buffed off the Menzerna 85rd from the lights.
15. Applied the Swissol Pre Cleaner (needed for the Swissol wax to bond to the car)
16. Removed Pre Cleaner
17. Applied and removed Swissol (WOW amazing a super wet/deep/shine....)
18. Cleaned up the windows with Adam's Glass Cleaner (interior/exterior)
19. Dressed the tires with Adam's VRT (did one pass on the applicator and did a pass using the dry side as the customer prefers a matte finish)
20. Used 1Z Detail Spray to do a final wipe down on the wheels.
21. Used the 1Z Detail Spray for a final wipe down on the car.

Interior:
1. Wiped down the door jambs with 1Z detail spray
2. Vacuumed the mats, carpet, etc.

5. Cleaned the glass

Engine:

Engine cleaning was done after the wheels, as the engine was still warm
