I totally recommend it too. I still have the old one which isn't half bad, but my buddy let me use his new one for a while and it was so much lighter and easier to control it's hard to justify not upgrading. Your arms don't feel numb at the end of the day either. :tup:

I went and met the guys yesterday at someone's house, where they were working on a Ferrari. It looked amazing though it was hard not to just stare at the car and forget they were detailing it ;)

Granted, I don't think it gets driven a lot, but they didn't do any harm to it and they said that Ferrari is notorious for having very thin paint...and, I spent some time talking to them, and really, I got the vibe that they do know what they are doing and do care about delivery of a quality detail.

So, tomorrow I'll find out ;)

That sounds great. Don't forget we want pics ;).

Yes it is. I have been a member for years, and recommend Autopia highly.

What are the chances of he Dealer doing it via their body shop? I have already complained to the dealer about this, so the door is open. Thoughts?

Given my experience, they opted to have a 3rd party do the work...

I started out with paint chips in the hood. Body shop (not dealer) did touch up, dealer not happy, body shop shot car with clear over repaired chips, came back horribly buffed/polished - tons of swirls and halo/holograming. Took to dealer again, was told to wait a few more weeks for the paint to completely cure, took it again to them after that, and they had the body shop buff it out.

It looks pretty good now, there's about a 1" wide area near the edge of the hood near the A pillar on the drivers side that I can still see some issues, which when I showed the detailer, neither of us could find it in that light...


If I had to do it over again, I would have done it the same way, as the paint chips weren't anything of my fault. I do wish they got it right from the beginnnig, instead of having to make 4 trips. (initial inspection, 1st appointment, 2nd inspection, 2nd appointment) - but it didn't cost me anything in terms of money out of pocket, so, I guess it balances out. Better than I expected...

A job well done! pics coming soon ;)

Congrats :tup:.
