ScheerSpeed Detailed: Ferrari F430 Scuderia This car is one-off color, and the only one of it's kind. What a beautiful color it was to see in person after i was finished detailing it. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_1375.jpg The car was picked up around October, but had only been driven about 300 miles. However, there were some signs that i thought were compounding scratches from a wool pad after wetsanding. Whether this was done at the factory, or by another detailer, i do not know. However there weren't many RIDS, and 100% of the defects came out with two passes of SIP on the Detailer's Domain Uber Orange foam pad. Then followed with 85RD left the surface glistening. Now enough of me writing... onto the good stuff! PICS! and over 100 of them!

Just taken out of a car cover. There really wasn't much dirt on the car at all, however the paint needed correction badly. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0835.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0838.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0840.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0845.jpg now that looks like wool pad compounding marks to me.... http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0849.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0851.jpg Some wax left around the clear bra by a previous detailer. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0851.jpg more buffer trails! http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0854.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0855.jpg i then washed the car using Chemical Guy's Citrus Wash n Clear to strip the P21s Wax that had been applied before. then after the wash i pulled the car back into the garage area to clay it. I was really surprised to see how contaminated the paint was considering it was such a new car! http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0859.jpg So after claying the entire car, except for the areas that had clear bra, i taped up all the clear bra edges, and any trim peices that would be in the vicinity of the polishing pad. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0865.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0864.jpg and now some pictures with the halogens http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0876.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0880.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0884.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0886.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0889.jpg the rear carbon fiber peice looked really hazy. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0893.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0895.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0896.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0898.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0903.jpg here's what i first decided to go with http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_1054.jpg |
the hood after two passes of SIP came out flawless http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0915.jpg and so did the mirror http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0917.jpg and the reflection after SIP and a 91% isopropyl alcohol wipe. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0923.jpg before continuing polishing, i decided to go ahead and finish the engine. it wasn't dirty at all, so i just gave it a wipe down with a microfiber towel dampened with P21s TAW and then followed that with a 91% Isopropyl Alcohol wipe. Then i polised the muffler with #0000 steel wool and 1Z chrome polish. After that i applied Swissvax Cleaner Fluid and then Swissvax Autobahn to seal in the shine. here's how it looked before http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0929.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0930.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0931.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0932.jpg and a 50/50 of the polished muffler http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0932.jpg i polished the little badges on the pipes as well http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0944.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0946.jpg and here's the swissvax Autobahn, left for 30 minutes to set. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0949.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0950.jpg and after, it shined like never before! http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0964.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0965.jpg and now back to polishing. a few shots after 2 passes of SIP http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0975.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0983.jpg the rear carbon fiber peice before and after http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0988.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0989.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_0996.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_1003.jpg here the left side panel is not polished, and the right side is. look at the difference in the gloss! http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_1008.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_1036.jpg by the end of day two, polishing with SIP was finished. Day 3 i got an early start at 8AM, first giving the car a complete wipedown with 91% Isopropyl Alcohol in order to remove any oils left behind from SIP that could be hiding any imperfections. After, i started the final polishing stage with the Detailer's Domain Blue Uber pad and 85RD. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_1053.jpg look at that gloss! http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_1061.jpg http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/m...1/IMG_1066.jpg |

Thanks for looking! Dom |
Tony's car looks sick, i almost like this color as much as the blue one that's in Seattle. |
Scheer welcome man! That's our good bud Tony's car. Great Job ! Nice to see a great Miami Detailer on the TEAM! |
Wow thats one hell of a job... just taking numerous pics from all the different angles, not even talking about the detailing. Very nice! |
In sane detailing job. I love the use of halogens before AND after! The work on the CF is impeccable! |
Absolutely fantastic job with the detail! Is that Tony's private garage or a dealership? I saw a Clio V6 Sport in there.... |
