ForeverMaker Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 ... paint resurrection in this case. Eric picked this up from the brillo pad testing facility apparently. This service was for about an 80% correction with a special blend of herbs and spices that I like to use on black vehicles. Some deep runs and marring remains here and there but the transformation was pretty insane. The hood... yikes. Rest of the car looked similar. http://i.imgur.com/nJJf59Jh.jpg http://i.imgur.com/tAUegbkh.jpg After http://i.imgur.com/Oh2iQFrh.jpg http://i.imgur.com/8seoOpDh.jpg http://i.imgur.com/UnwNQNnh.jpg http://i.imgur.com/qlF3xC3h.jpg http://i.imgur.com/UzOoQNeh.jpg Looking forward to working on this car again!

cstmg8 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 How much do you charge for this service? My black G8 needs it badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverMaker Posted July 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 How much do you charge for this service? My black G8 needs it badly. how much does your paint look like the first photos? how much do you want the car to look like the last photos? Could range anywhere from $250-$1200 Getting it to 80% correction isn't crazy expensive. It's that last 10-20% where the time involved becomes insane.

cstmg8 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Pretty swirly, I think the previous owner must have lived next to moo moo, lol. Would it help if you didn't have to do the cf hood, and vinyl wrapped roof? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Brian Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Yea common issue. Will need to be re-glued. New Cadillac already needs glued back together. Nice. The paint looks pretty though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pntbll309 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I don't see a new car. Detail work looks amazing tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustlestiltskin Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 New Cadillac already needs glued back together. Nice. The paint looks pretty though. This, I would commit murder if I bought a newer ctsv and the trim was falling off and needed "re glued". Great transformation regardless.

Boosted1G GSX Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Ryan, Great work as always! The best part about working with Ryan is his communication. He's always been up front and honest about the condition of the car, and does everything he can to get the car in the best condition he can. And yes unfortunately the trim is coming up on the drivers door Edited July 17, 2015 by Boosted1G GSX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Nicely done! Love those cars. 6 year old design that IMO looks better than the new ones and still very current. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 would you mind sharing some of the products you used for this job? I hit our black minivan every year and did so yesterday after the rain passed. The only part I struggle with and perhaps need stronger products on is the hood and roof....although I don't even polish the roof 'cause you can't see it :fuckyeah: The sides and rear I can get 95%+ outside perhaps the occasional deeper scratch.

ForeverMaker Posted August 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 You able to remove dents? I used to offer that but I prefer to focus on paint correction/interiors mainly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
