Detailed: 2007 Porsche 911 Turbo!!

I just picked up this Porsche 911 Turbo for a good friend of mine here in Boulder CO. It an '07 with 25K on the clock. Being silver the car looked to be in decent shape, but upon further examining this was far from the truth. It required a full 3 stage paint correction and a very thorough detail. Hope you enjoy!

Before shots:







I started with a thorough cleaning of the alloys. First step, as always, a good degrease using Adam's All Purpose Cleaner.


Adam's Fender brush cleaning the tires and wheel wells:

After a spray down with Adam's Green Wheel Cleaner the Power Stick was used to reach deep into the rims.

Adam's Trim and Lug Brush used for those hard to reach areas:

High pressure rinse with the new Ultimate Fire Hose Nozzle:

Exterior was washed with Adam's Car Shampoo. Hard to reach areas were scrubed with the Trim/Lug Brush.


Engine bay was given a once over. The car had a lot of leaves and debris in the intakes, which were vacuumed out with the MetroVac.


Adam's Metal Polish in action:

Adam's In/Out Spray finishing the job:

More leaves and debris removed from front intakes:



Onto the interior. The rear seats were removed during the thorough vacuuming.


Prototype interior brush in action:


Seats were cleaned with Adam's Leather and Interior Cleaner and Protect with Leather Conditioner.



Finally onto the paint. The paint condition was observed after all surfaces were clayed:


Adam's new Severe Swirl Remover with green pad on the Flex:

Adam's Swirl and Haze remover and orange pad up next:

Finished with Fine Machine Polish and the white pad:


This Turbo had a clear bra on the entire front of the vehicle, which was polished out using Adam's Clear Polish and the Porter Cable:

Finishing touches with Adam's Americana Paste Wax:

Adam's In and Out Spray makes short work of hard to reach exterior trim:

so what did you do with the clear bra? did you just polish on top of the clear bra? i always wanted what people did with cars that have xpel or a clear bra on them.
