2017 Focus ST in Magnetic Metallic Grey Really POPS!

So a referral from CR called to have his new to him 2017 Ford Focus ST Cleaned up and coated. The car wasn't bad but it was loaded with contaminants that needed removed and the paint, well, clearly it was in need of a nice polish and I knew from having worked on a number of Fords, the paint would respond really well.

 

In the process we decided upon CarPro Cquartz UK 3.0 for the paint and GYEON's Q2 RIM for the wheels.

 

I'll let the pics tell the story of how nicely it turned out. Overall 100% perfection and flawless paint and trim. Metallic really pops out now and the reflectivity and clarity is outstanding for an entry level vehicle from a Domestic I think.

Hey, Tim...are the before pics pretty dramatic in terms of difference?

 

Love these posts! If I had one ask it would simply be for 1 or 2 before shots. Thank you!

 

Thanks Clay. On this particular job I didn't get any before shots as the weather wasn't cooperative and the indoor shots were meh at best. I just won't likely be setting up any lighting gear to make the shoots count as I'm focused on getting the job completely and delivered more than pics.

 

That said, on this one the change wouldn't have captured well via camera. it's more of an in-person given the car has such low mileage and wasn't so much in the way of scratched or swirled as it was just cruddy dirty with contaminants. Before pics of what would be an extremely dirty looking car just aren't as dramatic as one that needs more correction.

 

Great feedback though and an effort I'll put forth.
