Detailer's Domain: Porsche C4S Cab/Swissvax
This was a referral from a great customer of ours. Love that fact that he referred another great Porsche guy to us. Thanks Bill for letting us work on such a great car!
Bill took great care of the car, no need for any major overhaul, just some very light scratches in the usual spots and some extra care inside and out. We took care of them with Swissvax Cleaner Fluid and of finished with Swissvax Crystal Rock.
The interior was cleaned up, conditioned and prepped for some drop top weather!
Products used:
Exterior:
Adam's Car Wash
Gilmour Foam Gun
Swissvax Yellow Clay Bar and Optimum Instant Detail Spray and Gloss Enhancer
Einszett Spray Wax
P21S Finish Restorer Metal Polish (on the tips)
Swissvax Cleaner Fluid
Swissvax Crystal Rock
Wheels and tires:
Uber Tire/Wheel/Wheel Well Kit
Interior and Glass
Leather Master Rapid S
Leather Master Protection Cream
Einszett Cockpit
Lusso Glass Polish
Einszett Plastic/Vinyl Cleaner
Tools:
Infratech 5300
Makita 9227 Hi Speed Rotary
The Uber Foam Pads (5.5inch)
Tons of "Uber" Microfiber Towels
Uber Drying Towels
Brushes
Metro Vac
Let's start with the interior:
Before:
Dust on the dash
Dust in the vents
We pulled the rear seat cushions out
Some debris under the rear cushions
Dirt in the seams
Swissvax Detail Brush to get out dirt the vac couldn't get to
