I've corrected more Tesla's than anyone on the planet. And I know the paint on these cars. So usually its a repetition equals efficiency when correcting one. But this Tesla had 21k miles on it and had seen some better days... The paint was an absolute wreck! I'm not going to say the coatings I offer make these problems never happen but I know there's no way it would of been like this with out some serious neglect. The owners did their best to take care of it but with super soft tesla paint and some inexperienced detailers this is what happen! It took me over 50 hours to correct and coat this but end results are amazing!
This what the condition it arrived in and it looked far worse under shop lights.
Solid black roof in equally bad shape.
7 hours of compounding the roof alone gave me these results.
The hood was another 4 hours of compounding and after I got all the water spots out, the next day a lot of them reappeared so I had compound the hood again for another 2 hours
This whole car had signs that another "detailer" if you want to call them that had attempted to buff this car
More improper use of a polisher....
And more proper use of a polish by me!
Deep scratches and swirls here...
this went on for 3 very long days but my OCD and dedication to delivering nothing but the best results I pushed hard until 1-2am most days and even pulled a straight 35 hours from tuesday/weds
Using ONR soaked paint safe towel I went around the car in this fashion
After all my compounding I had made quite a mess so at 3am I decided it would be best to wash the car and clean up the dust.
This car was so covered in defects I could only tape the trim as I had to go right up to the edge every where. But it wouldn't be OCD approved if we didn't address all this before being done!
A credit card wrapped in an proper microfiber can be your best friend for this.
After a long hard battle I was ready to really bring out the gloss in the before Cquartz Finest! Fast forward.... and...
remember this?
TA DA!
Black roof looking amazing!
