Recently just booked a collection of exotics. The Ford GT was the first car for me to do as it was the worse and the client wanted to see what it could look like after a full correction. Car took 30 hours to complete. Enjoy the photos.

man, when i see people post up details like this it makes me wonder what the hell they do. i can make a car look badass and can do full paint correction plus full interior detail, and ive never spend 30 hours, 20 hours, or even 10 hours on a car...i meant, if you count me letting the paint sealant cure for 12 hours and wax cure for an hour or so, then i guess i can say it's taken me that long...

sounds to me like you have never done a "true" paint correction. theres a huge difference between going over a vehicle and blending clear in paint defects vs. filling in swirls with glazes and waxes.


try wetsanding and buffing a car from ding to dong. i've got over 130 hours into my ffr cobra.

It doesn't look like the guy detailing the Ford GT wet sanded the vehicle. It looks like paint correct via a buffer.
