    Lately our business has been pretty busy which is a good thing. So this client of ours, happens to be a good friend of mine, just got delivered of this.....

    Of course as usual, I blame myself for this but I think that's why I tend to become good friends with all of our clients, is that I love cars and so do they. People now come to us looking for shops, custom shops and so on... It's amazing and I only send them to the best, period.
    So he had his car done by Exclusive Motoring, kept it simple as possible but made a huge difference
    After there were done.
    More aggressive and meaner for sure. [​IMG]
    So at the last minute he decided to take the car to GoldRushRally. I knew that I was running against time but iknew that putting the hours in, I would be able to get it done. So we booked for 2 days, full paint correction plus CQuartZ.
    I have done his Maserati before, so he wanted the same thing done to his new baby.
    4 of his other friends are already booked once thy comeback from GoldRushRally, hopefully the shop will be done.
    Washing stages plus stripping and decon the paint.[​IMG]
    After all the washing stages and decon the paint, the car was pulled in. Myself and the owner couldn't believe how terrible the paint looked.
    Before condition. [​IMG][​IMG]
    That is how the entire car looked. Not okay but I was here to help and fix it.
    Not wasting any time I got my products out.
    Products and equipment:
    Dewalt
    Flex3401
    M105
    HD Polish
    LC Orange, Purple Wool, White
    Eraser
    CQuartZ
    Deluxe
    Flyby30
    50/50 after M105. It did leave a little hazyness but that was removed once the polishing was done, which I used HD Polish on a LC white pad. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
    1 day in the half it took me for the multiple polishing stages, after that, washing was a must to remove the dust cause by the abrasives, the car then was dried using a leaf blower and MF towels.
    2 passes to ensure the car was oil free with Eraser was done and then it was time for coating.[​IMG]
    After the coating was done, I pulled the car out to help it cure faster on the sun.[​IMG][​IMG]
    Gotta love coatings, it really makes the paint super glossy.[​IMG]
    Final pictures to come later. Uploading them once I get home. Going for a ride of a lifetime with my friend on his Ferrari. I will record it. ;)

    After him and I took for a test drive. I got up to 150mph and he got up to 190mph. One long straight away on the back of his complex.

    Pure adrenaline.
