Detailed: Black GT-R Brought Back from the Dead
From my local racing forum:

Want to see how bad a GTR can look in 3500 miles?

This GTR had about 3500 actual miles, but the paint must have been aged in dog years! The owner had a group of mobile guys come out to “detail” the car and you guys can just imagine how that went. He finally talked to the sales manager at the dealership and thankfully he referred him to us.

We spent about 30 hours reconditioning this paint. A lot of that time was spent finding the correct pad/technique in order to finish out correctly, as well as cleaning up the other “detailers” wax/compound.


Before:




The “detailers” buffed the car and left buffer swirls everywhere. They also had wax/compound in *every* crack.

OWNED! In the future let the owner know that "well water" and "spring water" are NOT the same thing. Also that neither should be used to wash a car. What did he do pick a detailer by throwing darts at the Yellow Pages?

Black Nissan with 3500 miles - Autopia.org

and to answer your question.....

Wash
Clay
M105 with a green SM Arnold pad—orange pad in some spots
M205 RED CCS pad

We also had to use some PO85rd on some panels—they were all different.

We sealed with UPP
Tires wear malco aquabead

I prefer Poliseal though. M105 dust like a biiaatch.
