This is vehicle #2 from collection that brought me the Carrera detail. This SSR was one of the first produced and had the 327 as the power plant. Not wanting to part with this one for the more powerful recent model, the owner opted to supercharge it. This, along with exhaust and computer mods aided it to putting down 400+ hp to ground. He later had a good friend paint on the flames and wet sand the entire vehicle a year ago. This left an amazing finish and other than some washing induced marring, it was defect free.
I apologize for lack of after shots. It began to rain as my day ended.
Detail Description:
Exterior Detail with paint correction and protection.
Goal:
To remove any paint defects present and achieve the highest possible gloss/depth.
Wash Cycle:
Dawn Wash (2 oz. per 2 gallons of water)
Meguiar's Gold Class
Clayed using Meguiar's Last touch 1:1
Paint Correction:
Meguiar's 205 via G110 using Meguiar's Soft Buff 2.0 Polishing Pad
After a lot of inspection, this was all that was needed to refine the paint. This is the beauty of 205 and most paints.
Paint Protection:
Meguiar's 21 2.0 by hand using Meguiar's hand applicators.
Final gloss was aided by Optimum's Instant Detailer. Such a wonderful product.
Wheel Protection:
Meguiar's 21 2.0 by hand using Meguiar's hand applicators.
Tire Protection:
Meguiar's Endurance Tire Gel
Time accumulated:
7 hours
Even though the paint was in pristine condition, there is a lot of it on this ride. The bed cover is enormous. There is also a ton of painted interior surfaces that I protected and polished with Meguiar's D-151 Reconditioning Cream.
Befores....
Afters....
Also decided to take care of the SSR's engine bay....
