    Ferrari 360 in Tour de France Blue. Overall the car was generally clean but the finish was in need of moderate correction.

    After the wash, car was beading strong so a few extra steps were taken to strip the paint. Even after a citrus pre-soak, citrus 2 bucket wash paint was still beading. Multiple IPA wipedowns took care of the last bit of protection/glaze.

    Few RID clusters on the engine cover section, kicked up the RPM and made a few extra passes sorting everything out

    After finishing, brought up the clairty

    Rear plastic window hazed and filmy as usual. Hand polished 3-4 times to remove the haze and restore clarity. Later I threw on a coat of jetseal to at least help with the water spotting in the future.

    50/50 left side untouched, right side polished

    Good detail on a very nice looking ride. The flake really comes out after the work you put into the correction.

    Awesome work.

    Can you please explain why paint needs to be completely stripped of wax before correction?
