Aston Martin Virage Corrective Detail
Recently completed Aston Martin Virage in Meteor Silver, 2012 model that needed some correction of the well known issues Aston's have from the factory however after those issues were dealt with the end product is stunning along with the beautiful styling this vehicle has.
Small trail of "Pigtail sanding scratches".
A whole swath of sanding scratches on the roof, in the pic it looks like a spider web on the finish.
Clearing up this defect.
This defect right in the middle of the panel(At least Ferrari leaves their sanding scratches in the hard to reach areas) stuff like this literally takes five minutes to fix.
On the trunk(Boot).
Trunk with the clarity and gloss.
About this time I had Chris from Diablo Dent come take out a nasty ding in the rear quarter(Aluminum) this was not fun for him at all......... but he came through.
Rear edge of trunk(Boot) with a huge swath of sand scratches.
After correction.
Before.
After.
Sand scratches right up to and touching the roofline crease, combo of machine and "Elbow grease" to correct this defect.
After.
Sand scratches that were not even buffed at all....................The horror of corner cutting.
All better.
More defects on the rocker.
After.
Top edge of rear bumper.
After.
Wax residue on the textured plastic.
No wax on the textured plastic.......
Wheels had acid damage from the car wash(*Note Acid wheel cleaners are not a good idea on monied up ceramic rotors......oh no).
After polishing.
Engine bay had solvent based dressing sprayed all over, removal of said product.
6.0 V12 Tightness from England.
Beautifully appointed interior.
Finished product.....................
Those hips............................
