    Default Hacked 3 Month Old Black BMW X6 Correction- Lucci Elite

    I received a voice mail from this client regarding how disappointed he was with how his car looked in any kind of light conditions. After speaking with him for almost twenty minutes it was evident that we had to do a full paint correction. He had told me there were hard water spots all through his car and he took it to the dealership to try and have them take it out . When the car arrived it was around 7am so we couldn't really make out the serious damage just yet after stripping the car from the prior LSP and a full clay bar treatment we pulled it in the shop to get a good look at what we were up against. I can honestly say we were all blown away at what we were looking at, the car had hard water spots everywhere and some nasty buffer trails from the awesome detailers at the dealerships . Jc, Tim, and I started on the paint correction while JP took care of the rims and plastics. After 12 hours with 4 people on the car we knocked out a 100% correction, when the client picked up the car he couldn't believe the outcome as the dealership told him the buffer trails and hard water spots would never come out because it was a black car. Wow. Enjoy the photos and keep in mind the car was barely 3 months old.

    Wow what a difference.

    Dont you love how dealerships will tell you that holograms and shit are there permanently on black cars? RIGHT. Ugh I hate their detail shops.

    It depends on the job at hand we charge 55-65 an hour but sometimes a customer wants a firm quote without the hours involved this car was in the 700's..
