    Default GT3 RS 4.0 Detail + Paint Correction - Street Dreams Detail

    Finally got my hands on a 4.0 and it really is an awesome car, minus some factory defects of course.

    White wheels set the car off very well, cleaned up with gentle wheel cleaner and water no need for Sonax on this car with the PCCBs



    Washed with citrus wash after an OPC pre-soak to remove dealer applied wax



    Some sun shots of factory defects, swirls haze, hgolograms and tons of pigtailing



    Holograms



    Close up



    Rear bumper area had more severe defects, sand scratches and pigtailing mostly. While these days I always choose a DA for correction on sticky Porsche paint it was doing next to nothing for removing the deeper defects. Out with the metabo rotary and a detailersdomain yellow cutting pad. Cranked up to about 2100rpm to yield good correction...



    Couple sun shots post correction





    Finishing stage carried out with the Meguairs finishing disc and 106fa, I initially did not like this pad but on certain paints it does work well... I'll give you a hint soft black is not of them :shakehead:



    Cargo area vacuumed and all plastics treated with 303 protectant



    Carbon hood underside cleaned using Swissvax Opaque pre-cleaner



    Engine carbon polished by hand and protected with Wolfs Body Wrap. LSP for the car was also Wolfs Body Wrap
