06 Lamborghini Gallardo Correction - Lucci Elite
After seeing the correction I did on Andrew's Murcie, I received an email from Andrew stating his friend wanted to do the same process on his Gallardo. We scheduled the correction a few weeks later. After picking up the car and bringing it back to my shop, we got to see the real work needed once the car was prepped and the prior LSP was stripped. Rids, Swirls, and Holograms were on every panel preventing it from looking how it should. We started on the car Wednesday morning and worked on it until Friday afternoon. It was a 3 step process and topped with a special wax from Swissvax they sent me to try out and give my feedback on. I can't describe how amazing the wax made the car look after it was corrected. In person it looked more of like a black chrome then black. Application of the wax was very easy and it was even easier to wipe off with no sweating, streaking, or hazing. I will be doing a full detailed write up on both of the waxes I am testing when I apply it to more cars and am able to track how the durability and beading. Enjoy the photos.

The turn around on that I know was a long process but the results speak for themselves
