Hello !!
This weekend I detailed an amazing 350z solid black. Some before pics:



Just medium swirls :





The hood, in carbon fiber, also had swirls:









The roof was in better shape:







After cleaning wheels and wheels wells. In the shade, the car looked amazing:







After claying, I started polishing the hood. I used Menzerna Final Finish PO85RE5 and blue Propel Advanced with my Metabo:



Is not easy taking 50/50 in carbon fiber:





I applied Collinite 845 to the hodd looking for the maximum protection:



Finished:



I polished the mirrors with Einszett Chrome and Metal Polish and Wolfgang applicator:



The surprise:



I decided in that point that I should remove the swirls but not trying to remove the random scratches. I used Propel pads and 3m Fast Cut Plus and Menzerna 85RE5. After that, I applied Prima Amigo and Zymöl Glasur.
The results on the bumper:



The left wing:



50/50:



Right wing:







Nice hood:



Buffing with care in this small areas:



In this gif, the 1 shows the before and the 2 when I stopped the Metabo to show when I consider that the abrassives are broken down:



The rear right wing:



Results:

















Some pics that the owner sent me yesterday:

Wow that looks great maesal

Your located in Brazil right? Or was it Spain? I cant remember now I thought it was Brazil.

The vehicle looks incredable and the pictures showed the difference you made to that vehicle

Just some questions, what is this unit called:

oh and yes where was that reading taken? Is that microns? Just curious that's all but that gauge looks very interesting.

Thank you for sharing my friend, vehicle looks great and the pictures that the owner sent you look great...man I miss the beach

Yes, not much paint, so I decided just removing the swirls, not the RIDS.
