Project Detail was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to detail this much loved machine to its peak condition. We would add our passion into this vehicle, meaning everything from the mechanic to the owner and now us, the detailer would be applying the utmost car for this Porsche.

The owners allowed us correct the paint as much as possible with the exception of wet sanding. This meant that everything with the exception of stone chips (from spirited driving of course) and the orange peel in the paintwork would be removed.

Even though the car had been cared for, the paintwork and finish were missing a detailer. The paintwork required more then a 2 stage to make the flat ‘Black Grey’ as glossy and defect free as possible.

The car’s paintwork would be protected with TAC System’s Quartz Sparkle 75% Glass Coating. The wheels and Calipers were coated with Quartz Magic Wheel & Brake Coating.

The end result after 2 stages of polishing and applying Quartz Sparkle Glass Coating.

PORSCHE – THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE

From the extensive correction, to the custom interior detailing and finally applying and curing the Glass Coating for protection, this Porsche took Project Detail an entire week to complete.

We only use the best and relevant equipment and chemicals to obtain the results. This car was polished using the italian made Rupes Bigfoot polisher and the German made Detailing Kingdom compounds and polishes.

The grey colour is a unique colour as it appears very flat, but once all the defects are removed the surface becomes extremely glossy. After applying Quartz Sparkle, the surface is superior to all but the best waxes.

Total time 60 hours –
55 hours Paint Correction
3 Hours for Interior detail, suede cleaning and engine bay detailing
2 Hours Applying Coating
