My customer just picked up this car and its perfect, however the paint was a bit different. He brought it to us to get it up to par with the rest of the car.

Phil - you get these cars looking so good I'd hate to actually drive it again! Excellent work as usual. What a gorgeous car... 993s are beautiful.

 

How do you correct tight areas like the wing right above? Or lets say around the door handles.
Which size of pad do you use?
How do you not leave compound residue etc..?

 

good question.

a ton of masking and rinsing the final product give us a residue free car.

there really isn't much to prevent it with compound and polishing you will get dust. the best thing is to rinse it.

as for as tight areas you will go by hand.

the wing was done with a 4 inch pad.

 

Phil can anything be done to those seats to make them look new again or once that supple gets cracking that's it for them?

 

comfort seats are the worse seats to get to look like new on P-cars.
