Detailer's Domain: 993 Turbo - Ext/Int

Probably my all time favorite Porsche, I really enjoy doing 993's. They are challenging yet extremely rewarding! This car was in mint condition 9,000 miles! It just needed some polishing and jeweling. As a last step we used Menzerna topped with Swissvax Divine

A thorough interior cleaning to finish it off.

Here is what was done on the car:

Exterior

- Wheels were prepped with P21S Wheel Gel and cleaned up with various brushes
- Tires were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash and washed down
- Wheel wells were spritzed down with P21S Total Autowash and washed down
- Wash down and rinsed
- Door jambs were cleaned up
- Claying
- Dried
- Paint inspected and measured
- Wheels protected with Swissvax Autobahn
- Tires dressed with Swissvax Pneu
- 2 Step Paint correction
- Inspection with Fenix, 3m Sun Gun, Infratech, and natural sunlight
- Paint sealed with Menzerna
- Swissvax Divine
- Rubber and Plastics Treated
- Exterior windows and mirrors cleaned and sealed
- Exhaust tips cleaned

Interior Detail


- All interior surfaces cleaned and prepared, including glass, and all
vinyl/plastic surfaces.
- Carpets and upholstery vacuumed.
-Leather surfaces are carefully cleaned, prepared and fed using the Leather Master

Product List:
Exterior:
Lusso AutoBathe
Uber Yellow Wash Sponge
Swissvax Clay Bar and Optimum Instant Detail Spray and Gloss Enhancer
Einszett Spray Wax
Menzerna Super Intensive Polish
Menzerna PO85RD
Swissvax Divine
