  • Black Porsche Turbo, blah made beautiful by Superior Shine!

    These little black cars have the softest factory paint that I know of. Because it is so soft, improper care of the paint results in a nasty finish.

    This little darling had a finish that was beat! Scratches, swirls, water spots, bonded contaminates.... the list goes on.













    Our job was to rescue it. We were to restore the finish to like new or better. The paint being soft wouldn't stop us from achieving a perfect finish. We have done many of these before so our equipment, products and technique were dialed in.

    Approximately 12 hours later we had a perfect deep rich brilliant shine! All defects have been removed and the shine was restored much better than new. A durable coat of protection was applied and the trim, wheels and canvas top were detailed.

    Our job here is done!!

        I'd say the CPR was a success and new life was breathed into the paint. Nicely done!

          Looks great Joe! The paint now looks perfect.

          What process did you use to revive this piece of art?

            Pretty cool when this is "just a typical day at the office". Nice work, Joe, as always.

              I know what you mean about soft black paint. Mine rank right up there with those Porsche's.

              Looks good Joe.

                Nice job. What was the process used on such soft paint? Each picture has you guys using different tools.

                  Any problems with road rash on that car? How did you address it?

We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.
