Waxon Detailing Forum

I get to Detail this Stunning example of a 911 every 6 months or so to keep it in tip top shape, This would be my 3rd visit to this car. There is literally 1 single little Dent on this car... Otherwise it is near 99% perfect. A Truly magnificent kept car.

I blustery and very cold Cape Town Sunday was the order of the day for me.

I used the Polishing Pad with Menzerna Final Finish Combo.
And LSP was Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant 3.0.






















And lastly


Cheers,
Vincent

Nice

Great work. Judging by the state of the front right, I presume this car doesnt get out much.

Superb!

Beautifull old girl, she looks to be in immaculate condition!

Nice work Vincent. Lovely classic.

Is that a single stage red?

Hi Woodie, Yes that is a single stage paint. Made my Yellow pads nice and red.
Thanks to everyone for the positive feedback

Turned your polishing pads into cutting pads .

On a serious note though, when you next get to treat this old lady you should consider adding a pure polish step - something like M81, Deep Crystal Polish or the fabled M07. The single stage paints usually respond very well to a pure polish.

Hi Woodie,

Yes the 2nd time i treated this car I used the Meguiars M07 show Car Glaze and applied it by hand.
That was after about 3 months after the 1st treatment I had done.

This time the car had been standing uncovered exposed to elements for about 8 months I would say.
So the paint had really lost it's shine and lustre.

hence why I decided to go with the Meguiars Yellow Polishing pad and Menzerna Final Finish Polish with a 40% cut. I also never went beyond speed 2 on the Makita and kept the pressure very light on the head of the machine.

I do realise that with a car being this old that one needs to really be gentle and careful as not to remove too much paint from the car.

I also ended up using 3 pads over the car. As soon as I could see that the pad was getting stained I would change over to a fresh pad.

This was purely a 2 step Detail... step 1 the Menzerna Final Finish and step 2 the wolfgang deep gloss sealant 3.0

Stunning! is this the same car thats in the megs advert in some magazines?

Hi Audioholic,

No i dont think this car is used in ads.
The owner of the car is more overseas than here in SA.
Hi Brother looks after the car for him.

I will be doing his Scooby WRX next week I think.

Nice work Vincent. Classic indeed.

Cool man, we'll be waiting! really nice work btw!
