This Tesla had about five hundred miles on it and needed a new car prep. This is the just released 2.5 Roadster Sport all electric super car. This particular car is worth just shy of $150,000! Car was in OK shape. It had plenty of hard water spot's and swirls that required a two stage correction. Hope you enjoy!

The Detail:
Car came in fairly clean





Wheel wells and tires were sprayed down with All Purpose Cleaner

Wheels sprayed down with Green Wheel Cleaner

Agitated with various Adam's brushes including the Power Stick



Foamed with our soon to be released foam gun


It was a hot day, so the car was sprayed down with Detail Spray to neutralize the water

Deck lid was opened to show the batteries and PEM (power electronic's). These areas were sprayed down with Waterless Wash rather than a hose and water...can you guess why?



Car was also air dried with a MetroVac Vac n Blo


Now for the paint. Car had tons of holograms and swirls, and one spot were bird dropping had a chance to bake in.


Car was fully clayed

 

I started with the bird etchings first using a Porter Cable cordless drill with Adam's 4" foam pads. Yellow, Orange, and White.



Results

Now for the PC 7424XP. The two stage process include Adam's 7.5" Orange foam pad with Swirl and Haze Remover, followed by 7.5" White foam pad with Fine Machine Polish.


The Tesla was then protected with two coats of Adam's Americana

Plastic and rubber trim inside and out was then protected with Adam's Super VRT and In and Out Spray





The interior was wiped down with Adam's leather and Interior Cleaner, then protected with Leather Conditioner



And finally the results!










Cheer's

 

Wow! that car looks great! Very nice detail job, just curious what the cost for that job was?

 

did not check with the Yahoo that says don't clay polish or do any of that to a new car finish

Great job

You know for 2 grand you can get a high amp charger that will fully charge the battery on the roadster and the new S model n 45 minutes.
They meaning the new sedan that seats five plus 2 child seats are going to sell like hot cakes.

 

Nice work. Did this car have the Tesla Paint Armor and does this change what you do/need? Thanks.

 

This car did have paint armor on it. I treat those areas with a light polish that we manufacture for clear bra's (Adam's Clear Polish), and use the same wax as the paint. I tape the edges to prevent burning them, and it also prevents polish and wax building up.
