    this is not full correction even if 95% correction was achieve. first was interior: 303 protectant and some leather cleaner conditioner.

    U got the idea
    now to correction part... i start with g110 meg polish pad and 205 and didn`t work , i change with sonus polish pad and 205 didn`t work, i use first time optimum hyper polish spray and meg polish pad , didn`t work. with all this the result was still not to my expectations so i took out of bag flex DA and with 3m ultrafina combo and hit the test panels.
    bumpers was the worse , so i have to do 2 tests. one on door and one on bumper.
    here is the result, first 3 passes was with weight on flex , the last passes was light to ensure i do not leave any holo or haze.
    all test spots was ipa spray , let sit and wipe clean.

    Awesome work! I see that beaten up yellow Testarossa still creeping in the background!

    Black California looks much nicer now, just curious if you went for 95% correction why not spend the time for as close to 100%? was the owner being a "cheapinowski" or were there time contraints?.

    The car looks much better in dark colors, except white which (imo) is the best for this car with the Bordeaux interior.

    the major thing was holograms and haze . i don`t mind hit 100% if i am paid for it.
    but customer was happy with the result of 1 step , and rich his "cheapinowski" budget.
    when i start detailing i did beat up cars and spend time to get them "perfect" as possible on my time , but i learn it pretty quick that time is money.
    that seats will needs a lot of maintenance on long run , each leather "square" will get in contact with pants will get used on edges , the result will be ugly.
