This was a fun detail we had the car for 4 days and went to town on it.

Much thanks to Dan Sene at Concierge Motors he's the bald guy you have seen him in many of my detailing posts.

This P Car needed some massive paint correction, driven on weekends and stored in the city the parking lot put dings, you know the rest.

Anyway a full paint correction and interior detail was needed. For the exterior we used Menzerna SIP and PO85RD and for the final step Swissvax Cleaner Fluid and Swissvax Divine.

For the interior a very good vac, the Leather Master Trio, Einszett Cockpit on the rest. For fun we applied Swissvax Divine on all the carbon fiber trim!

Great work, Phil! The depth you got from SIP/PO85rD is great!

As always, great job!
How did you remove the residue from the edge of the protective film (rear fender area)?

that is my baby and phil did an awesome job. the detail was done about 5 months ago and i've hand washed it myself a few times since and it still gleams like new.

if anyone doubts if its worth it to get this done, all i can say is you cant beat getting your car back to showroom new condition for a few hundred bucks.

she was turning heads left and right...........
