1985 Porsche Carrera

[bookeem]

gave this an exterior only detail on sunday..

was lightly swirled, and is the super of our apt complexes car, he sees me cleaning, my car every weekend and i wax his car for him from time to time, but he finally asked me to polish it out for him ..

so being that it was lightly swirled, and it is oem single stage paint, i figured it would be a easy recovery..as it was..

m80 on polishing pad via udm speed 6
m80 on a finishing pad via udm speed 4-5
gold class paste by hand

rims were cleaned with quik wheel detailer and my finger in a mf towel..
tires dressed with endurance gel
windows cleaned with stoners IG
all exterior black trim dressed with megs vinyl and rubber protectant

thanks for looking..

Re: 1985 Porsche Carrera

Looks great!

Always like the look of this body style. Have buffed out a few, the single stage paint seemed very soft and you need to be very careful so that you don't remove too much paint on any of the body lines, especially on the hard lines on the hood.

Great job!! The car looks as if it has just left the factory. I'd never say it is more than 20 years old.

Re: 1985 Porsche Carrera

thanks everyone..that paint is super soft..and bled like crazy, lol

i know hte owner was impresed and pleased, he might take it out once a weekend weather permiting, for maybe an hour drive..

after i was done, about 2:30 om, he jumped in after taking pics and was gone till about 7:30, he came home as i was taking the trash out, threw the 2 car covers over it he uses, one oem porsche cover, super soft with padding, than another more weather durable on top of the first, he told me man i had to show all my friends and they loved it and some should be calling me soon..

i wish more cars paint was so easy to work with , lol

Great work! In my oppinion those old 911's have one of the best automotive designs ever. The design is timeless. That paint look as if you could take a bite out of it!
