Ferrari California

[steve.soule.10]

Number 3 "daily driver" customers wife's stunning California.

Relatively new car without the need for heavy correction. A few small areas that needed attention. Process was as follows:

Washed, decontaminated and deep clean wheels with ironx. Clay with Ultima and decon towel.

One of the toughest spots, narrow strip across the top of the rear bumper that had some deeper scratches from trunk loading. Probably spent an hour with flat top and flex mini follow by Griot's mini to clean these up.

Some tail light lens love.

Engine bay got cleaned up

Interior cleaned with steam and apc. Then smooth leather coated with CQL and plastic, carbon and metal trim coated with DLUX.

Exterior coated with CQ Classic and wheels, trim and lenses coated with DLUX.

Lighting at completion wasn't the best and it wasn't an easy color to photograph. Mostly because I'm not a great photographer I suppose.

Thanks for looking.

Amazing work.I really liked how you handled the scratches on the tail lens cover. How did you pull that off?

If I recall correctly, that was megs MF pad and classic polish. Really like that combo for light to moderate correction. Lenses don't typically require the level of refining that pint does, so eraser and coat after was all that was needed. If you have some deeper gouges, maybe step up to fixer or flat top then polish with classic or essence.
