It had already been washed a couple of days before i arrived and kept under cover, so after a wipe down with last touch, i checked the paint under sunlight and led light

It was then clayed, with not to much contamination

The wheels were sprayed with bilberry and aggitated with brushes

Hi,

I was asked to prepare this Supra belonging to a fellow club member, for our club day at SantaPod coming soon. I last detailed this car on valentines day last year and since then it has undergone lots more changes and been part of several special events and magazine shoots.

Today was an extremely hot day working outside under a gazebo and with one day to work with meant i could not get lots of photos as i really needed to crack on. There were lots of other bits i would have loved to do but the primary objective was the paintwork.

This was the car on arrival. The drag rear wheels fitted, especially for SantaPod, with street legal tyres. With not far off 1000bhp, this car and the owner, are not messing about Smile

I took some paint thickness readings, some panels of the car had been resprayed just before doing the car last year

[Image: P1050722.jpg]

Most of the car was taped up ready for machining and the rest done when required

[Image: P1050727.jpg]

I used the makita rotary, menzerna 106fa, 3m polishing pad, 3m small polishing pad, sonus small polishing pad

Moving round to the driver door

Sadly these were the last pics i got. The car was completed at 9pm and put under cover. I'm sure the owner will take some pics which i will upload once it comes out to play Smile

Endurance tyre gel was applied along with poorboys wheel sealant. It was finished off with victoria concourse wax. It looked stunning Smile

Hope you enjoyed

LOL

will get some finished pics over the w'end when some new wheels get test fitted

Is an amasing machine and with his latest power mods really shifts to. Cant wait to see it at pod on the 14th Smile

This was his latest dyno vid from last week. Really needs to go on a hub dyno now, just no grip on the rollers as you can see from the vid (even with those rears fitted!)

Christian's supra looks pretty stunning too, Sam...

:thumbup1: excellent work as usual from Christian, quick question - is there much your paint correction can do for actual scratches (as opposed to swirls for example)? Maybe it depends how deep the scratch is?

Cant say i totally agree with the comment on my Supra Dave, but its getting there, lots and lots to do but the interior has made good progress last week Smile

Although sadly now with a mechanic with a possible cracked manifold, but hopefully just a gasket. Got a month for it to be running properly till it goes on the track Smile

Large scratch removal will always depend how deep they are and if the clearcoat has been completely broken.
