Lamborghini Murcielago Correction

I received a PM from Andrew stating his car was down at Lamborghini of Newport Beach and needed some attention. Being that the car is normally on the east coast this was probably the only opportunity I was going to get to dial it in. After speaking with him, we arranged to do a full paint correction process / detail. I had the car delivered to my shop last Thursday around 10 in the morning. After assessing the condition, I pulled it outside and gave it a thorough wash. After cleaning the rims with Sonax and a Swissvax wheel brush, I foamed the car with a mixture including Swissvax Car Bath. After the wash and a full clay bar decontamination, I took measures of the paint to see precisely what I was dealing with! I worked on the vehicle for a total of 35 hours to get it back to a perfect+ condition. This car was finished with Swissvax Crystal Rock. I can't say enough great things about the depth and clarity Crystal Rock gave the car; unlike anything I have seen before - the photos don't do it any justice! I would like to thank Andrew for the opportunity to get this beauty back to life!

Great work as usual!

How many layers of CR did you use and what time do you leave between them?

I generally use 2 depending on the car upto a max of 5(very rare) and leave 10-12 hours between coats and 20-45min before I buff it off.
