911fanatic vs 2014 Subie BRZ
 
Client called wanting his new Subie protected properly from the get go. Not much polishing was needed in this case as it was in decent shape from the dealer. Who knew, eh?

Presoaked with Exclusive Citrus Cleaner at 3:1
Soaked with Carpro IronX to remove any contamination and rinsed
Washed with ONR 3oz / 4 gallons of water
Wheels cleaned with Exclusive APC 3:1
Polished with Rupes Duetto / Microcut MF cutting disc and Optimum Hyper Polish
Wiped down with Carpro Eraser to remove any polishing residue
Optimum Opti Coat Pro applied to all exterior surfaces
Wheels removed, cleaned and coated with Opti Coat Pro as well.

Total time - 9 hours

Iron X runoff in the foam. For a new car, quite a bit of contamination.

Deep scratches in the rear bumper courtesy of the guy who installed the clean film to protect the luggage area. Irony at it's best.

Ken, I fully Believe when i buy my BRZ, im going to bring it to you right off the showroom floor for a full work up, the paint looks AMAZING when you get done with it

Another fantastic job! :thumbsup:

This is how a car should be delivered to the customer.

My Fit came with dealer installed scratches, and although I was able to eliminate some of the swirl marks with my Dad's porter cable 7424xp and his detailing stuff... you just can't beat the expertise of a professional who knows his stuff! Might have to get Ken to give my car the once over to get it looking how I want :)
