Unbelievable.

 

Brillo pads are not meant for a car wash.

Great work!

 

It's amazing that some people will neglect their paint to the point it costs many thousands of dollars just to fix it. Makes you wonder why people continue to hit automatic car washes when they know it's doing this to their paint. I've said before, it takes a special person to own a nice black car. If you can't properly care for the paint, than black is not your color!

Fantastic job, both of you. Love the "X" 50/50.

 

It was "Rough duty" on this Bentley, have a Lexus GS450H in the shop now in the same shape that will be similar in the tranformation from horrible to beautiful.

 

Sick work as always Bob, are you doing the initial cutting with a rotary then jeweling with the new Griots DA? I have a flex da and for heavy cutting I need to go to a very aggressive pad and powergloss to make any headway. IM thinking about switching to a true rotary to save me time and effort.

 

Amazing work, but damn that car has been treated like homeless dog

 

Awesome job. That is quite the turn around. I call it black Mercedes syndrome. It looks like every black Mercedes, especially s class,just gets this horrendous.

 

Ive always wondered what a correction like this costs

 

Thank you for the kind words, depends on the finish depth of what I am working with on how I will proceed as with some compounds and a aggressive wool pad the initial cut will take off quite a bit of material as I can get 100% defect removal either way rotary/DA polishing.

 

This particular client is a very loyal customer and thus was not charged near the "Time spent" hourly, which @ 65.00 per hour would have brought the tab to $8,450.00 which of course sounds insane,but re-spraying part of the car could be close to this for quality work and a complete re-spray done right would top over $20,000.00.

He picked up the car for a VERY GOOD price, and even with a big detail tab came out well ahead.
