Many had questioned us, Did you ever detailed a Ferrari? How does it feel to detail a Ferrari? Well, Here you go, just to fullfill your curiosity. The F360 CS is one of the meanest and loudest Ferrari ever. The ear drum exploding at less than 4000rpm is pure automotive madness. But to us, it just felt like another day in the detailing world. We are here to do what we do best. Be warned, this is a short post as we had limited time to complete this job and there is a minimal amount of photos. Anyways, what is so great about detailing a Ferrari? Its just like any other car with a much tougher and strong factory paint.

First look on the car is as usual, dirty. At the driver door, you can actual see a 2 tone of a dark stained panel.

From the back, you can actually tell that the car is rarely drive, given the gloss and shine of the red still maintains.

Notice the black tinted panel, looked like oil stains but it cannot be washed off.

Areas near to the door handle is severely damaged.

As expected, the paint is also swirled up.


We started with a deep cleansing wash, cleaned and clayed the car which restored most of its smoothness.

Swirls on the car were corrected with multiple detailed steps with the help of some high end products.

After the first stage of polish, the paint is hazed up.

Second stage polishing to gloss up the paint.

and Final finishing step restored the shine, clarity and gloss of the paint.

Colour been restored and the stain tinted panel is clear of its unknown black stain.

All posts for the month October, 2014

This is gonna one of those very simple post, very straight forward jobs that we do without any coating application, but instead we decided to go crazy while the customer only asked for a simple polish before he sells the car off. It is going to be EPIC.

First of all, the typical S Class is mostly driven by a driver and also maintained by a driver. Drivers are not trained to wash or even have the proper washing equipment to wash a car, so they would just use whatever cloth/tissue/rag with whatever combo of shampoo/dishwasher/cloths detergent they can find around and clean the car. In this case, the driver had been using a very rough rag to wash the car for the past 7 years.
Upon shining the light onto the paint, we really did expect the condition to come out like this. Well, what did you expect for 7 years of torture?

An added bonus, we don’t even require lighting to be able to see the scratches, swirls and other paint defects.


As usual, we washed and clayed the car. Getting it ready for polishing was really a pain in the A**. Eventually, we reached the polishing stage. I will be very honest to our readers, this is not a flawless perfect job, it was supposed to be just a light polishing to give it a quick shine and smooth paint. This is a before shot with the sun.

1st stage polish we were able to do maybe a 40% recovery?

Feeling irritated we decided to go all out and just do a good one and not just a light polish. Although we did not ask the customer for approval, we were not even going to charge extra for the extra work. It just felt right that the car deserved a full recovery. After all, its still a S Class

After a intense 4 stage detailing, we achieve a 80-90% recover. There are still some severe damages that cannot be removed as it has just gone too deep, but again, what can you do with its the first ever polish since day 1 of the Merc’s life?

Moving on to using LED lightings, with the help of a tripod, we are able to show you guys, the same panel, after multiple stages of detailing. This is prior any detailing.Firs
First stage, cutting through all the damages.

Second stage, leaving behind some light random isolated deep scratches.

Our instinct told us to just push for the last pass and we did. This was the outcome. There are still some light scratches but I guess it is good enought?

It was supposed to be a quick and straight forward 3hours polishing but it resulted in an intense 10hour hardcore recovery which we were quite satisfied at. The owner jaw dropped when he saw the car but the who are we to judge, If you like our work, please do subscribe and give us a like on facebook =)

Finally for the results, we do not use lighting, we do not use any signature shot gimmicks, and of course, our photos are all unedited except the number plates, cheers.
