Lets be honest here. Not all details is about a flawless finish. Not all customers are willing to spend huge amounts on their daily drivers. We understand that.

This client found me on Rennlist, biggest Porsche Forums and contacted me about doing his used but new Rangr Rover. He explained to me the problem with the paint and he knew what he wanted and I wanted to be sure that I have him what he deserved.

The procedure was simple, attack with his budget for 1 step correction.


Washing and decon.....

After all the washing was done, I then pulled the car inside. New client happens to own big warehouses, so I had an entire warehouse, to work on 7K square feet. Made my shop look super tiny. Lol

You know, at far away it does look glossy, let gets a little closer.

After performing my test spot

CarPro FlashPad paired with HD Adapt.

Yeah, that's how bad the paint was.

Moving on, now stay with me.

Usually I bring an extra Light Pod but I forgot mine on the shop, as the one I had the bulbs went bye bye, so I had to improvise. I used my car to help me with the procedure.

After

50/50 followed by Reflect

So when are you moving in to his 7k sq.ft warehouse, Francisco??

I love the fact that you used the lights on your car to show defects. I hadn't even seen it at first (till you corrected the one side)

Well done!

I wish, but he did made an offer and it's duable but not yet. I just finally got my detailing shop. Never know maybe in the new future.

Yes I used the car lights due to the fact that I forgot to bring my back up lights since the one I was using gave it away on me.

Thanks for looking and I appreciate the kind words.
