BIG "A" DETAILING BLK G35 Paint Correction Paint Was MESSED UP!
Hey guys, we just finished up a crazy week at the shop. Me & my guys put in alot of extra hours, closing up at 9pm & sometimes 10pm on most nights.
On Sat 8/29/09 I took in a 2007 Black Infiniti G35 2dr complete paint correction job.
I had been working on it all week long & needed to have it all ready for Sat 9/5/09 pick up!
After closing up at 10pm on Friday, something was really bothering me! I went home to take a shower, got a bite to eat & went back to the shop around 11:30pm to work on the G35. I stayed till about 2:30am, then went back home to sleep for a few hours. I got back to my shop the next day at 8am & was actually on time! Saturday was another long day! I got the G35 done & had enough energy with my guys to finish the last car on the night at 8pm! It was a very long week, I was glad to have Sunday & Monday off to rest up & get ready to go back to the shop on Tueseday!
I know what everyone is saying, 1 full week to do a paint correction job?
I put in a good 25.00 hours into this car.

Collinite Paste Fleet Wax No. 885 as a bottom coat - applied by hand
This durable boat was is so thick, it needs to be melted in order to soften it up & make it easier to apply. Removing this wax is a pain in the ass as it quickly forms a hard shield around the car within 1-2 minutes of applying it to the painted surface. It's a good durable wax that I've used in the shop for many years.
Collinite Liquid Insulator Wax No. 845 as a top coat - applied by hand
Another great product that I've been using in the shop for many years.
This wax produces a really great shine & gives the paint a long lasting layer of protection.
Every panel on the car looked almost identical to these three pictures.
The shop has been very busy, I would've taken more if I had the time.
I think you can get the idea though.
After a hand wash, clay bar & drying the car with the leaf blower
I took it inside to inspect the paint.
Here's what I found:
