A Rare Breed: Japanese Spec Porsche 959 receives the best detail and paint protection film

March 7, 2022

This world-class example of the Porsche 959 has been to us once before for an extreme makeover with paint correction. This time she's back to go under the knife, literally! This Japanese spec 959 with just 9000km (6000 miles) was custom fitted with Xpel Ultimate Plus paint protection film, the premier clear bra that offers a 10 year warranty against yellowing, and also provides superior rock chip and scratch protection.

Typically with modern vehicles, there is a pattern available through software that plots the pattern for each vehicle to utilize the film and make for easier installations. However, this car had to be wrapped custom with no plot, so it was crucial to ensure every edge, corner and body line was meticulously planned to optimize coverage and aesthetic. Once completed, the 959 was protected with Ceramic Pro. This is a nano-layer of protection which provides enhanced gloss, additional UV protection, and ease of cleaning for years to come on this ultimate automotive icon.

Brand New Porsche GT3 Needed Some TLC!

January 10, 2022

Ever wonder why you see so many new cars at detail shops? Sure, they may be getting window tint, clear bra (paint protection film) or a Ceramic Coating, but more times than not, they actually need paint correction! Yes, paint correction when the car only has 30 miles on it!

What causes this?

Many times, vehicles come from the factory with paint imperfections; on Porsches we mainly see what are called ‘pigtails’ or sandmarks from after the car was painted and sanded. The marks left in the paint are from improper machine buffing techniques which did not remove them effectively.

Other flaws like swirl or spider web scratches are often times caused by the way the car is handled from the factory - to the dealership - to the owner. The vehicle may arrive to the dealership, only to be stripped of its plastic and ‘detailed’, which often leads to swirls/scratches being instilled in the finish due to their improper techniques.
