2008 Evo Detail

This awesome car was booked in for a basic detail and the owner was kind enough to drive 2 hours to me.

The car has alot of engine work done and I just realized that I forgot to take pictures of it. I believe 420HP at the wheel right now.

Anyway, as I mentioned, this wasn't supposed to be a paint correction detail but the hood was full of scratches. I took some readings and as I suspected, the paint was very thin. Upper 70s and lower 80s with some areas as high as 95mills. Being very careful, slowly those scratches were removed. Didn't take pictures during due to time and my battery died in the camera as well.

Process

HD UNO wool pad (scratch removal)
HD UNO HD orange pad
MENZERNA 85RD blue pad
HD POXY
Pinnacle Signature Series II Wax
BM Tire Gel - tires and trim
SSR3 - Exhaust Tips

Before









SCRATCH on door



AFTER HD POXY









ALL DONE WITH PNNACLE
