This corvette owner sought me out to see if anything could be done to make his car look better. He had had another well known detailer in the bay area work on the car and it "just didn't look right". After about 30 sec it was obvious the previous detailer didn't know how to correctly work the hard corvette clear coat. Heavy DA haze and micro marring were present all over the car along with a few strike-throughs (when people say you can't burn with a DA....that's not exactly true). After 2 days of re-compounding and two more rounds of polishing, this C6 was back to looking sharp again!



upon arrival
















lots more DA haze and micromarring








50/50 shot












After compounding






More defects. Also 1/8" 3M Fine Line tape used to protect edge that had be compromised by other detailer, keeping the burn mark from getting larger during correction work.




After











All finished and sealed with Blackfire Wet Diamond





























Thanks for looking!

Now that's the way a black car is supposed to look! Very nice!

Wow, the previous detailer really hacked that paint badly. Great restoration Jeff. Why no CQuartz Finest as an LSP on this one Jeff?

Thank you. The owner wanted regularly wax it himself so no coating was applied for this vehicle.

Darn, I'm in Vegas. My car has haze I think from the dealership when I bought it trying to make it look nice and failing and then a few waterspots from moving and having it outside at the wrong time. Any recommendations here?

Terrific transformation,

And this is why I'll never have a black car again. All that work to make it look great and 2 days later it will look not so great again.

Check these guys out, they are a fellow CQuartz Finest installer and I've sent several Vette guys there and they've been super happy.

Not quite accurate. Yes the car will get dirt on it, but dirt and bad buffer marks/swirls are not the same thing.

Thanks!!! Can't wait to have the car looking good for this summers Cars and Coffee

I understand, but everything shows up a lot more obviously on black than other colors that can hide these imperfections more. I'm 1/10th as careful about what touches the surface of my car now that it's not black and it still looks 100 times better than the black car did on a day to day basis.

Beautiful job! Instantly recognizable as the work of a professional. The perfect color to show off your skills.

Great job!! I use a spray bottle on M105 to make it work harder, works to.

I see your spray bottle.

Only a pro should work a C5 or C6, takes patience and knowledge as the clear is like concrete.

Great work, awesome results.
