Hey all,
This black XK-R took me around 14 hours to finish- client had requested a full correction after initial inspection of the heavy amount of defects.
Correction was performed with my Flex DA/ PC DA, M105 via yellow foam and finished down with Sonax's Perfect Finish on green foam. Sealed with Menzerna Powerlock.
Correction level achieved was 95% and in most areas around 100%, other than a couple deep RIDS the clear was flawless afterwards
Befores:
Decon wash performed with CG citrus wash and clear/ Dawn mix- Sonax on the Asanti wheels- heavily soiled areas pre-sprayed with Megs APC @ 3:1
Beautiful Forged Asanti's, loved how they fit perfectly with the mesh grille/ painted hood vents
50/50 taped up to perform a test panel- M105 on an orange foam didn't cut it well enough for me- yellow foam took down everything- Sonax Perfect Finish finished this soft finish down perfectly and cleaned up all the compounding haze effortlessly.
Heavy defects visible underneath garage lights and under natural light as well
50/50- left after compounding- right untouched
After day one- hood looking perfect now as is 85% of the vehicle
Day two- wrap up, IPA wipedowns and final inspections
Afters (before LSP)
Menzerna PL applied, glass cleaned in and out, OPT dressing for the tires, 303 on all the other trim pieces/ rubber pieces.
Asanti wheels were cleaned with Eagle One NVR dull wadding- wiped down with ONR, then finally wiped again with a dry, plush MF towel.
Final pics
Sun poked out for a couple secs
Back in the garage:
Thanks for looking!
