2011 Aston Martin Carbon Black Edition Detail

AutoCon · 07-20-2011, 06:53 PM

New client with a Aston martin DB9 Carbon Black Edition sought me out to have his car corrected so it would be finally "As new", many issues such as factory sand scratches and holograms along with those holograms compound in every crevice on the car.

I do not see many Aston's(Would like to as they are beautiful when corrected properly) and conversing with Richie in Orlando as he has done over 175 Aston martins in the last few years on some special tips on this or that.

Car as it arrived.

Scratches on the wheels as well.

Sand scratch haze over right rear fender well.

More holograms.

Roofline had quite a bit of sand scratches as well, on the edges and a wide strip through the middle which made the car look like it had a "Mohawk" lol.

Correcting the haze.

Sand scratches down the middle of the roof.

After compounding step.

More examples of sand scratches.

Deep scratches on this "Brand new car" with only 584 miles on the speedo.......

More sand scratch haze.

A different angle of the trunk edge.

Deep marring removed off of lower bumper.

Guess this was missed @ The factory.

Corrected.

Edges of trunk corrected.

Remember this is a fender of a "Brand new car"!!.

Defects removed.

More DA sand scratches.

After correction.

Tight areas with sand scratches..........time consuming to correct.

Paint finish during medium polishing stage.

Brought in Tony Ito again on this car.

Marring on the spoke of the wheel.

After polishing.

During final polishing stage.

Interior pics.

The chances of that happening are about 100%....................it is a little busy at the moment @ the shop. Car was being prepped for clearfilm at the time but the detail is coming next week.
