Bugatti Veyron Matte White Correction - Lucci Elite

I got the phone call from a great friend of mine regarding this Bugatti. After it went on the rally there wasn't a chance to take off the stickers leaving them on for a couple months. Being that they were on the car for quite some time they eventually burnt into the paint from the sun. Upon arrival I tried numerous things to removes the shadowing but nothing worked. I was then told to do whatever I wanted as the car was going to need a repaint if I couldn't figure it out, so I went about fixing the shadowing by doing a regular correction with very slow speeds. Very nerve racking to say the least as your not supposed to compound/polish matte paint. I figured it out and brought the car back to life without removing the matte finish. Enjoy the photos.

Beautiful work! I have wondered if all those stickers (like those used for the Gumball) caused any damage to the paint...

is it less matte now? Looks to have a bit more shine to it.

Sounds like he owes you about 10k. You easily saved him 30k or more for a Veyron repaint. Which it sounds like he was already ok with lol very nice job!
