Lexus IS250 Paint Correction (Stage One + TAC System Quartz Max)

Lexus IS250 Paint Correction

Lexus IS250 
Stage 1 Paint Correction + TAC System Quartz Max

Heavy swirl marks and holograms Lexus IS250
To start off, to detail a black car is a challenge to majority of the detailers. Because if there's any imperfections, we can see it right away. The paintwork of this Lexus is full of heavy swirl marks, minor scratches, water spots, some oxidation, dull and holograms from unprofessional buffing with a rotary buffer.
Stage 1 Paint Correction is then carried out to remove majority of those defects and also bringing up the gloss.
Snow foam with TAC System ultra foam
Car is prepped with TAC System's Ultra Foam - Snow foam to losen up the dirt and grime, followed by a 2-bucket method wash (safest way to wash a car without instilling any swirlmarks while washing it.
Wheels is then cleaned with TAC System's Iron Zero Wheels is then cleaned using TAC System Iron Zero (iron fallout remover, brake dust are generally iron, whenever iron zero comes in contact with iron, it turns purple)
After the washing and decontamination stage, car is then dried with a microfibre waffle weave drying towel from TAC System. (We avoid using chamois "shammy" because that's one of the main reasons it causes swirls on your paintwork.)
A clar bar treatment is then carried out to remove bonded contaminants (gritty feeling) on the paintwork prior to the correction process.

Don't let it fool you, paint might look great after a good wash. But after putting in under a good special lighting, it looks completely different.

Before any correction work, the paint is first measured with a Paint Thickness Gauge to ensure there's enough paint for us to work around with.
We try out on a test spot for different pads and combinations to find the best results (every car's paint is different) and we found the right combo after several attempt. We manage to remove majority of the defects and also finishing it down with a high gloss with Stage 1.

After the correction, car is wiped down with IPA prior to the LSP (Last step product to protect the paintwork)
Quartz Max is then applied thoroughout the whole car for a deep shine and protection.
Black car is the the hardest colour for detailers but the results and finish is phenomenal!

The car certainly looks like a brand new car, coming out from the dealer showroom again.

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X MR (Evo 10) Full Detail

12/1/2016

Evo X MR Full detail by Grand Sport Detailing (GSD)

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X MR 
Full Detail (Exterior and Interior)

To start off, this 3 year old Evo hasn't been detailed in the past 12 months, apart from regular washing to keep it clean. it has some water spots and very minor paint defects and the paintwork just doesn't smooth (gritty) from day to day driving, losing its lusture.​
We start the detailing process by high Pressure Rinse to rinse off heavy dirt and grime, followed by a 2-bucket method to wash (safest way to wash a car without instilling swirlmarks) and then dried with a microfibre waffle weave drying towel from TAC System. (We avoid using chamois "shammy" because that's one of the main reasons it causes swirls on your paintwork.)
Evo X MR TAC System TAR ZERO
There's a lot of heavy tar and bug spots adhered to the paintwork from day to day driving and because the car itself originally doesn't have wax, it sticks to the paint. 

TAC System's Tar Zero is then used to remove the tar and bug spots. It's also very effective when comes to remove stickers and vinyls. 
Evo X BBS Rims TAC System Iron Zero Wheel Cleaner
Wheels is then cleaned using TAC System Iron Zero (iron fallout remover, brake dust are generally iron, whenever iron zero comes in contact with iron, it turns purple)
It has heavy bonded contaminiants on the paintwork and it feels really gritty, an intensive medium grade clay bar treatment was carried out to remove any above surface defects.
After all the decontamination process, an exterior detail is then carried out to remove some of the paint defects and bring up some gloss and wax to bring back the brand new feeling again.
TAC System Multi Cleaner (All Purpose Cleaner)
Interior Detail
- Full vacuum includes hard to reach spots
- Carpets is then spot & steam cleaned and shampoo.
- Leather is becoming glossy and is also been cleaned using a Meguiar's leather cleaner to clean out all grime back to matte finish. 
- Interior trims, plastics, dash is wiped down with TAC System's Multi-Cleaner (APC) 
- Vents, crevices, and impossible to reach spots are cleaned with a brush. 
- Door jambs cleaned with APC.
The evo definitely looks and feels like a brand new car, out of the dealership again! We believe every car deserves another chance to be brand new again!
