Thread: 2010 Spot correction (Corvette ZR1)

Premier had me come in today and do a spot repair on this brand new ZR1, there was a large dust nib on the front bumper, and a cluster of deep scratrches on the rear endcap near the spoiler.

The dust nib was a challenge as I could not just hit it with 1000 or 1500 grit as the texture would not have matched the factory orange peel, so I feathered it with (trizact) 3000 grit and corrected the finish to preclude the film installation(on the entire car!!).

After sanding and wool correction



After fine polishing



Rear endcap scratches



Sanded with Trizact



Fine polishing with PC



Corrected



Deep scratches are now just shadows not visible in U.V. light, only under halogens...... mission accomplished

WOW fantastic job !

Silver paint, no chrome wheels... could this be a Corvette I actually like?

ZR1's look so much better without the chrome wheels

I agree! ^^

Interesting technique. I wouldve razored the nib and proceeded with Trizact 3000 as you did.

Paint run yes, open nib no. Leveled in small increments so surrounding peel texture was matched with the repair.
