đź’¦ Detailing Chevy SS Paint Correction Detail - Black

Over the weekend I performed a paint correction on this 2014 Chevy SS in Phantom Black Metallic. With only 14,000 miles the car was pretty swirled. This is mostly due to the fact that this car has extremely soft paint.It really tested my abilities as a detailer. It was so soft that even polishing compound on a polishing pad would haze the paint. I ended up polishing it with a 50/50 mix of Isopropyl Alcohol and Water! It was a big challenge and I gained a ton of knowledge and experience from it. The end result was very satisfying for both myself and the client.

Products/Tools Used:
Two Bucket Wash
Foam Pre Wash
Nanoskin Wash MittFlex 3401
Chemical Guys Polishing Pad
AMMO Leveling Fluid (Cut)
RUPES Polishing Pad
Tuga Devil Wheel Cleaner
Griots Garage Polisher and Red Wax Pads
Zaino Z5 Show Car Polish
Griots Garage Rubber and Vinyl Dressing

:nice:

how do you decide what your LSP will be ? is it based on price ? or what you suggest to the customer pending if the car is garaged or daily driven etc ?

I include Zaino Wax into the price of my paint correction package. If the client wants better protection, then I will sell them a paint protective coating such as Optimum Gloss Coat. This client wanted a wax so that is what I gave them. Gloss Coat is obviously more money so it depends if they want to spend it or not.

Pretty much anything I touched it hazed and gave it holograms. I used a polishing pad and AMMO Leveling Fluid to correct it. This was the only combo that didn't haze it that bad... Even then it left holograms.

Do you have a white rupes polishing/finishing pad? Ive had good luck with that and super finish 4500 (po85rd) on soft black paint like Porsches.
