Italian Beauty Preserved
Project Detail Sydney was able to detail this beautiful Alfa Romeo 4C in red. The car was only picked up 6 months old coming in from Marrickville. The car was washed by the owners as careful as they could but using the wrong methods. After our 21 stage wash and decontamination, these defects stood out under our LED inspection lights. What was even more shocking, was signs of damage from improper buffing and polishing courtesy of the dealership where the customer purchase their car.

Stage 2 Paint Correction & Protection
This Alfa Romeo 4C underwent Project Detail’s Stage 2 Paint Correction to revise the paintwork. This had to be done painstakingly in order to avoid damaging the Carbon Fibre body of the vehicle. All the raw Carbon components of the vehicle were also polished. Once this correction was complete and we were happy with the vehicle, the paintwork was protected with two parts.
The entire body was coated with TAC System’s Quartz Sparkle Glass Coating in order to provide a long term protection for the bodywork of the vehicle.
The front bar, front quarter panels and the bonnet were then protected with Suntek’s Paint Protection Film. This provides a physical barrier to successfully protect against stone chips and other strong physical abrasions. Due to the complex design of the 4C’s front bar, extra time was needed for a quality finish.
