Rinsing with distilled water using the Nomad


All Finished with the wheels and tires


Time for some clay

 

A quick check outside to see how the progress is coming. So far it's just been rough polished.


















Looks finished but still a lot of work to do!

 

My client accidentally induced scratches on his engine bay cover so I polished them out

First I removed the cover using some vacuum lifters

 

Now it's all finished!






















The client was super pleased about how his car turned out saying that he had never seen it look so good before.

He posted on the Planet-9 forum the following:
"I am currently having my '06 Cayman S detailed by Richard Lin, and at this time--even before the final product is completed!--the results are nothing short of amazing. Richard's work is an art form for him, and I have observed his mastery. The swirls, holograms and small scratches have been eliminated through multiple wash and polish steps, and he has revealed (even before wax) a metallic blue Cobalt unlike any I've ever seen or imagined. In short, I believe the paint to be better than it was showroom new...it's that good! On an personal level, Richard has provided excellent customer service. His communication skills are clearly a strong suit, and he willingly imparts knowledge and advice about process and product. He is also gracious and generous, having invited me to dinner at his sports bar and grill in Corona, CA. I have traveled from Denver, CO, to have this work done and I can say without hesitation or any equivocation there's no doubt it was worth it. Highest recommendation."

 

I will definitely be at MITM however this year is probably going to be a very special year for me. I'm anticipating my new wife will be arriving in the states just before MITM and she will be coming with me to the event for her first MINI event, so I will more likely be playing and demoing and going on drives than polishing paint.

 

Thanks Heather! I love Prima!!!! :cornut:

I know!!! Haha sure we can talk Nathan. I think I might have to go touch up this Porsche while I'm at MITM..I heard that on his way home he got pelted by a sand storm, snow, bugs, and just about everything bad that could happen, including a cracked windshield.

 

Bring it by the shop! I'm here from 9 to 6 Monday through Friday. Saturdays by appointment. I've got a car being delivered on Friday and another on Saturday, so I will be at the shop this weekend if you want to stop by to have me look at it.
