    • Stupid paint transfer :





      At a certain moment, I felt the paint acting different. I knew it was time to stop and let what is left there because I might damage the paint more than anything. Sorry Steve!

      After-shot :















      Headlight polished but the rest of the haze is form the inside of the lens, nothing I can do.






      Comme toujours, les roués sont details parfaitement.


      Um.. un mirroire? On pourrais se passer la soie dentaire haha.










      Certains remarqueront que j’utilise beaucoup de cire différentes. C’est que j’appele mon RetD, je tente constamment d’aller chercher le maximum de shine pour chaque voiture. E crois que la Sig. II s’applique bien à une voiture metallic foncé.

      • The owner if this Talon told me he's been looking for a detailer for the past 2 years, none of them were up to his standard. However, one of his good friend refered me to him and we quickly agreed to make it happen. I think the result is really sick and I hope you will enjoy the sun shot like I did!

        Traitement :
        Nettoyage sans-rinsage ONR
        Clay bar
        Polissage 2-step
        Cire DP Max Wax
        Polissage des phares.

        Condition initiale :

        Beaucoup beaucoup de toiles d’araignés, la peinture est très fade, voyez par vous-même!

        Lots of swirls and faded paint that result in little shine from the paint. Even wet, the paint show no reflection what soever.















        Sous la lumière..











        - Moitié /moitié

        Voyez la différence entre la panneau poli et non, ce n’était que mon 1er step. Le but était de montré l’effet néfaste d’un clear coat oxydé.

        Here's an half and half to show you what a paint without faded clear coat should look like!! The difference is big







        Poli à la main en-dessous de l’aileron.. pas le choix! I had no choice to polish by hand under the wing, no machine can fit under this.



        New Detailer Pro’s wax! Give a nice wet-look with good reflection.

        • After-shot:

          See by yourself the nice reflection of the paint enhanced by this quality wax.







          Avec le peu de soleil qui avait, on a sorti l’auto pour mieux l’admirer. Je suis très content du résultat. Look hot! On sait que le noir est la pire couleur à travailler.

          Lucky for us and you, guys who's reading this thread, the sun game out at the moment we was done. Under the sun, you can see the true result of the polish, no have, no hologram, just a clear and nice result with very good reflection and under some angle like curved body panel, the paint can seems very wet-looking. thanks to my polish and DP's wax.






          Love the luxurious shine Wolfgang gel gives

          • We scheduled a complete for this car, I kept this cadillac for 2 days but at the end, I can tell you it was well worth it!

            Anyways, enjoy the hard work!



            1) ENGINE Shampoo

            This is Before.








            This is After the engine is cleaned and protected with an anti-static and UV protector.

            Voici après avoir été dégraissé et protégé avec un protecteur anti-static et UV. Question de garder les hose plus souples :








            2) Nettoyage + Clay bar :

            Using my wash technique : Foam gun + 2 bucket wash + 4 grit guard.
            Car soap
            Clay bar with Quick detailer
            Drying using microfiber
            Daytona non-scratch wheel-brush.
            Sonax Wheel cleaner


            Foaming the car..


            Voyez comment le Sonax fait effet ici:




            Un exemple de ce que ma clay bar a pu corriger :



            The car is now clean and clayed. Ready for the correction.




            3) Correction.

            GOD!! That car doesn’t have RDS but it have EWDS ( Every-Where Deep Scratches). I’ve never seen a car with that much deep scratches. Poor car . On top, the car has 3 differents paint job which make my job harder because each panel doesn’t polish the same way and doesn’t shine the same way!

            **By the way, paint transfer, and such damage have bene fixed, I just forgot to take pictures of it after**

            Vous savez l’acronyme RDS ( pour random deep scratches) ? Cette n’a pas juste des randoms mais c’est omni-présent sur toute la voiture. J’en croyait pas mes yeux de detailer LOL. En plus, l’auto a 3 différentes peintures sur la peinture, c’était un défi car chaque panneau se polissait différement.

            See the difference in paint.


            See all these orange peel, weak bodyshop..


            Paint transfer on the taillight:


            Another paint transfer I guess.






            Swirled and faded:

            • 4) Have a look at this 50/ 50 It’s insane!!!

              Regardez la difference après seulement le compound, c’est fou!!!







              5) Interior.

              I’m not going to name every single product I used but there’s a lot.I will let the pictures speak for themselves!

              L’intérieur était vraiment sale!! Je vais laisser les photos parler d’eux-même.

              Before :















              Cleaning leather with a natural horse hair brush.


              Voici comment la solution est sortie à la fin :



              As usual, all interior is done using my own extractor.




              Voyez comment c’est sale ? J’en ai vidé 2 comme ça!



              Polishing the cluster for a nicier transparant look.





              J’applique le conditionneur à cuir. Donne un look beaucoup plus riche au cuir et le protège aussi.

              • Next morning.. after pics :





                Looking very natural hen!? No fake artificial look












                J’aime vraiment le look du cuir! Digne d’une cadillac haha!






                6) Extra care :

                Ici, je m’occupe de protéger les roues, de détailler les intérieurs de roue, le pneu, polissage de vitre+ aquapel etc etc.. Une accumulation de petit détail qui fait tous la différence!

                So, I tried wet-sanding the headlight but too bad, the haze is inside the lens. It can’t get any better than this.

                Voici ce que j’ai utilise pour le sablage des phares. Dommages le dommage est à l’intérieur du plastique!





                After..


                Polishing windows.. prepping the glass for Aquapel treatment




                Wheel sealant




                7) Job is done.. after-pic.










                See the beading of the wax.. very big beading instead of tight.









                Voici un vidéo qui démontre très bien l'oxydation qu'il avait sur cette peinture:




                Thanks a lot! Stay tuned for more sick detailing project.

                • Ma première S2000, je peux confirmer que tous comme les corvettes se sont des autos qui donnent mal aux genoux haha!

                  Le propriétaire aimerait pouvoir cirer sa voiture dans le futur, alors j’ai décider de lui mettre un scellant qui pourra topper par la suite par une cire.

                  Condition Initiale :







                  Voyons voir si on pourra améliorer la réflexion et le shine de la voiture!

                  Tout d’abord on passe la clay. Chose qui est toujours négliger par tous.



                  Une fois la correction terminée, évidemment, l’éclairage était vraiment pas au rendez-vous .. dommage!













                  Les roues ont reçu un scellant spécialement conçu pour les roues.








                  See ya!

                  • It was raining outise hence why the car is soaking wet but you can’t still get an idea of the car.





                    That car need a serious clay job !!






                    Voyez ce que je vous avait dit !? See, the clay bar was more than mandatory!



                    Maintenant, vue que ce n’était qu’un 2-step, `ca ne changeait pas grand-chose à ma préparation, mais tout de même, l’auto a été repeinturé

                    Car was been repainted, how I know ? Well.. my paint gauge is here to tell me those things.







                    Engine shampoo:

                    Il y a beaucoup d’anti-rouille, évidemenent, je ne pourrais pas faire de miracle la-dessus.

                    Unfortunately, there’s a lot of anti-rust, I won’t be able to remove all of it but at the same time, why would I? He paid to have it rustproofed, why would I remove hen!?



                    After :





                    Wheels were cleaned and then I applied a wheel sealant to it. Not cutting corner, passing throught all spoke.



                    Polished the headlight:

                    • Voici une voiture qui m’as été référer et je me devais de faire un travail à la hauteur. L’auto a environ 1 ans, donc le propriétaire voulait faire disparaitre les petites swirls de l’hiver. Je crois c’est mission réussi.

                      Treatment :
                      2 bucket wash
                      Clay bar
                      2-step polish
                      Long-lasting wax

                      Before:

                      It’s not bad, but it’s still missing some shine :P





                      Clay bar:
                      Let say it was needed!


                      Polishing all chrome!
                      It’s all in the small detail right?



                      After shot:







                      Ironiquement, il m’a avoué que ce qu’il préférait sur ce detail était le détail des roues haha! Oh well.. enjoy !



















                      Shiny like new!




                      See ya!

                      • Joe want to sell his TL and he asked me to have it cleaned before sealing it.(wise move Joe!). He also tried it to do correction with the DA but after 2 days he gave up :P so here I am!

                        BTW, I must say I love this color!!! It’s so sick! Nighthawk Black Pearl!

                        Car is for sale guys. Sick ride!!!

                        Treatment:

                        Headlight polishing
                        Engine shampoo + uv protector
                        3-step polishing
                        Pinnacle Signature II wax ( to make the pearl pop!)
                        Sonax Wheel cleaner
                        Tire gel
                        Clay bar
                        Washed using the foam gun.

                        Before:

                        Swirled but I’ve seen worst! However notice the lack of gloss and reflection for a black car.

                        L’auto a de bonne swirls présente, mais j’ai vue pire, par contre, elle manqué beaucoup de gloss, on ne voit même pas le pearl de la voiture.








                        Headlight need polishing.








                        Getting my stuff ready.. notice the NOS energy drink hahaha! I will need it :P




                        Foaming the car..



                        Washing the rims…

                        Remarquez le produit tourne mauve sang, c’est le sonax qui fait effet, au contact de particule de poussière de freins, il change de vert à mauve.





                        J’utilise toujours des brosses qui ne scratchs pas, mais surtout QUI PASSE-PARTOUT



                        Paint is in good shape! That’s important to measure the thickness on Japanese paint because usually they are very thin!



                        Now let’s see the correction!

                        Before:


                        Êtes-vous capable de voir le pearl !? Moi non..

                            • This car was detailed by someone else last year and since the onwer drive the car in the winter he wanted it back to his prestine condition. However, I told him a 1-step wouldn’t do much on a warm-colored car that drive in the winter!


                              Alors, je commence par débadgé le chrome trim:


                              Je me ramasse pogner avec de petite bout de colle dans des crevisses si petites que seule mon ongle peut y accèder LOL.. ça la été long mes amis!!




                              Au final haha!


                              La voiture avait aussi des lignes de colle noir sur CHAQUE coté des collants, vous voyez le genre de job LOL !?

                              All decals had this black residue along the white lines. That’s dirt who sticked on the glue.



                              50/50



                              Maintenant, je mousse la voiture comme toujours,



                              Clay bar time my friend!


                              Polishing the chrome lock pin


                              …et la porte à gaz aussi


                              J’applique après un scellant à métal / I then apply a metal sealant.


                              Looking better right!?



                              And the exhaust pipe too!

                              Et après le moteur est traité anti-static et conditionneur à hose. / Engine hose and plastic is then treated and here’s the final result.








                              Les moulures sont aussi traitées / Molding are also treated








                              Polissage des phares avant / Polished the light







                              Polishing the windows before applying Aquapel right? Remember what I said before?


                              Je m’assure qu’aucun résidu reste sur l’auto. Au lieu de m’assurer que mes photos sont en 720p ou en 1080p, je préfère m’attarder aux petit détail sur la voiture, comme la colle noir, le polissage et scellant sur tout le métal, le polissage des vitres, cirer les intérieurs de portes etc! / Just making sure no white residu is left on the car. Instead of focusing in knowing if my picture is in 720p or 1080p HD, I rather concentrate on those small extra details, (i.e: black glue along the decal, polishing windows before aquapel, polishing and metal sealant on all chrome accessories, doing the wheel well, waxing door jam etc.




                              C’est une thechnique que j’aime bien, on appele ça faire le papillon ou la fille facile ( hihi), on ouvre tous pour s’assurer qu’il n’y a pas de résidu dans les fentes!
