Detailer's Domain: Techart Magnum - Massive Paint Correction
This is truly a rare breed. We put 20 hours into this one. Just about everything was done to this one, full interior, engine detail, full exterior paint correction.
Heavy swirls, scratches, holograms galore. I believe the customer was pretty happy with the grin on his face.
What was done -
Exterior
- Wheels were prepped with Sonax Wheel Cleaner and cleaned up with various brushes
- Tires were spritzed down with Adam's All Purpose Cleaner and washed down
- Wheel wells were cleaned up
- Wash down and rinsed
- Door jambs were cleaned up
- Clayed
- Dried
- Tires dressed
- Masking
- 3 Step Paint correction (Meg's M105, Something being tested ; ) )
- Inspection with Fenix, 3m Sun Gun, Infratech, and natural sunlight
- Last Step - Menzerna Power Lock and Lusso Oro
- Rubber and Plastics Treated
- Exterior windows and mirrors cleaned and sealed
- Exhaust tips cleaned
- Windows were clayed and sealed
Engine
-Cleaned
- Dressed
Interior
-Leather Cleaned and conditioned
-Dash and plastics cleaned
-Vacuumed
-Mats cleaned

Sorry missing clay shots (windows and paint were clayed)

We used some paper to block dust coming into the grill.
