I spent a weekend working on this car in August of 2013. At that time the paint was corrected and coated with CQuartz Finest. The owner opted to bring it back for a quick touch up to address some water spots, carbon buildup on the exhaust tips, and get the wheels looking good again.

Wheels cleaned up nicely and were sealed with HydrO2

The owner washes the car from time to time, but usually just wipes it down with a quick detailer if it is not too dirty. As you can see, the coating still performed like it was new. The water simply beaded right up when it was sprayed, and sheeted off easily when it was poured on the paint.






Car was cleaned inside and out. Looked great.

Tires were nicely dressed which makes the glossy wheels really pop

The GT-R was in good company.

Then I was finally able to get some good shots since I did not have the chance to do so the first time around. Car still looks great.
