This Challenger SRT Hellcat originally came in for just a clear bra installation. However, once it arrived, it was quite obvious it needed a lot of work to make it look like a brand new car should. There were long scratches down almost the entire length of the front fenders and the entire car had some sort of overspray on it, causing the paint finish to look extremely dull. After many hours of polishing, we were able to make this Plum Crazy Hellcat look better than it rolled off the assembly line! We also protected the entire front end with XPEL Ultimate clear film and coated the entire car with none other than our most exclusive ceramic paint coating, Cquartz Finest!

Pre-Inspection & Paint Correction

One of the biggest issues with the car was the amount of overspray on the paint. This was causing the car to have a very dull paint finish.

A closer look.

Now completely removed after Paint Correction. The metallic flake is now popping and the paint look crystal clear!

This particular car has the factory matte black hood option, so we covered it with Xpel Stealth to retain the matte finish and protect it at the same time. All edges are wrapped for the best appearance.

Nice work!
Getting the XPEL into those nooks and crannies must have been a challenge.
Could you tells us what polishes, pads, and machine (buffer) you used?

Nice work. How many miles where on that thing? Can't be many with them just being built. Just wondering as I have a 16 Plum Crazy Hellcat coming this week straight from being made to me for Cquartz.
 
Wow wow wow, stunning!!
Great work! Wrapping the edges definitely the way to go in my opinion.
 
Stunning guys! I think this may be a candidate for our upcoming new Detail of the week spotlight mailer :) Its something we have had in the works for a couple years and are finally getting too! Focusing on CarPro Professional detailers across the country!

I believe it had under 1000 miles still. We have done 6 of them now, they have all needed correction work to remove the "film" layer that is on top of them. Flat Top has worked extremely well for me on these cars. Good luck, you will love working on the Plum!

Wow wow wow, stunning!!

Thanks!
