2009 Azure in need of correction. This car was taken care of very poorly by a previous owner and several dealerships.

Prep consisted of fully stripping the finish of all prior wax and glaze before correction.

These wheels set the car off very well, not a standard option for any Azure, they come from the Bentley Brooklands

Wheels cleaned and tires stripped of all old dressing



After



Onto correction...

Initial condition of the finish was like this, everywhere. Minor marring with lots of RIDS and fine scratches, some scratches ran 8-9inches in length!



50/50 after 2-3 hits compounding + polishing



Few shots of the trunk, lighter defects in some areas



Heavier in others







Rear bumper was plagued and almost gray, even after wool and foam compoudning only about 80% of the defects were removed

Before, no need for light



After



The trunk area had some scratches too deep to remove with polishing so out with the DA machine and Megs unigrit sanding discs





DA sanding at speed 3.5 using the 3inch disc



After sanding





After compounding the scratches were removed



After finishing











Hood shots before and after





After compounding

After jeweling, no LSP yet



Finished







Wheels sealed for protection and the tires were dressed with the thickest, most oily crude oil dressing there is

Thanks! Shame to see such a new car in a sad state, the owner was very upset when he took delivery to find the condition of the paint as it was

Amazing work! That black looks awesome now. Azure is my favorite of the ultra-luxury cars. Any interior shots? Looks like the maple wood? What kind of device you use to put on the polish?
