    Default Detailer's Domain: Nissan GTR - Paint Correction

    Sorry its been awhile since I have posted up a write up (at least for me) its been a bit hectic at the warehouse.

    Believe it or not another new car fix. Its really unfortunately. Diagnosis.... an abundance of holograms, swirls, cut marks, wash marks.
    Solution below:

    What was done -
    Exterior

    - Wheels were prepped with Sonax Wheel Cleaner and cleaned up with various brushes
    - Tires were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash and washed down
    - Wheel wells were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash
    - Wash down and rinsed
    - Door jambs were cleaned up
    - Clayed
    - Dried
    - Paint inspected and measured
    - Wheel Wells were cleaned and dressed
    - Tires dressed
    - Masking
    - 2 Step Paint correction (Menzerna Super Intensive Polish with an Uber Green and Menzerna PO85RD with an Uber Blue)
    - Inspection with Fenix, 3m Sun Gun, Infratech, and natural sunlight
    - Last Step - Menzerna Power Lock
    - Rubber and Plastics Treated
    - Exterior windows and mirrors cleaned and sealed
    - Exhaust tips cleaned
    - Engine Cleaned up and dressed

    Great work & great recovery. Any dealer should be ashamed to deliver such a car in that condition, but it happens every day.
