Thanks

 

You say that the paint was 'polished' with HD cleanse. Hd Cleanse is not a polish. It is a glaze that fills micro-scratches (or swirls). It is adding oils to the paint that fill the imperfections... If there were any imperfections that if you wipe the paint with a prep-sol then the imperfections will still be there.

 

HD Cleanse is a pre-wax cleanser. It has no correcting abilities when it comes to deep swirls and scratches, but this particular GT3 had nothing to correct. It was swirl-free since no one had touched it. And as far as hd filling things, there are times where that's all that's needed to give the finish a swirl-free look. If I can avoid machine polishing a car that has never been machine polished, hd cleanse is just the right product to remove fine scratches from washing and filling in moderate swirls. I then follow up with a wax that I know will last 3-8 months, depending on the wax chosen. That's just my philosophy. Not every car is a candidate for paint correction, which IS removing clear coat.

 

So how is the car holding up after a few months ?

 

The Premier clear wrap is holding up great to LA and OC freeway driving. I am seeing some minor scratches here and there, so I will try HD Cleanse on it. Also, tried the heat gun on bug stains, and it comes right off.

 

how much would a detail job like this set you back? and how far is aliso viejo from LA?

 

On this particular GT3, I believe we charged $685. That's about .05% of the car's value and an excellent investment to start the foundation of a proper car care.

 

Kudos to Moe. Very happy with the new car detail, and I think of it as an inital investment on the car. As stated previously, it was essential that the foundation for the car be done properly for the 100% clear film wrap.

 

Thanks Glad to hear she's holding up nicely. Now let's see the pics with those new Dymags.

 

Moe I've seen a few of your new car preps- which I really enjoy- I know the AM new car involved some correction if I remember correctly- but I was wondering if you are going to post any of your daily correction details- I'm sure many others on here would enjoy them too!
