Porsche 996 turbo correction - extensive hood repair

2001 996 Black Porsche Turbo

Previous client of mine who will never be going elsewhere again!

Apparently, he had a friend come over and “get a scratch out of his hood. Things weren’t going so well in that area, and it made the area worse. Well, in order to not have a square section in the hood look different, the whole hood was “polished out” to make it blend…

I arrived to find a slightly dirty car, but the front end looked like something else was going on as it was VERY hazy and dull before I washed the car. Once I got it cleaned up, I was left with the truth!

Total time – 10 hours
Process:
Decon wash, clay, wheels/tires
3 steps of polishing on the hood alone
2 steps of polishing on the rest of the car
Sealant wax application
Interior spruce up, leather conditioning, uv protection


Here are some befores of the car
