    Presidential Detailed: 2009 Audi TTS

    I recently performed a paint correction on this brand new 2009 Audi TTS. Being that it was white, brand new and had less than 800 miles made it a bit tricky to find the defects in the paint. Since the car is pretty much brand new there werent too many surfaces scratches(swirls), but there were some RIDS(Random Isolated Deep Scratches) throughout the vehicle.

    Decontamination Process:
    Meguiars "Mild" Clay Bar with ONR as clay solution
    Adams Metal Polish #2 on Exhaust Tips

    Wheels:
    Swissvax Autobahn Wheel Wax

    Interior:
    1Z Einszett Cockpit Premium
    Meguairs APC+
    Leather Masters Strong Cleaner
    Leather Masters Vital
    Vacuum
    Invisible Glass Glass Cleaner

    Engine Bay:
    Meguiars APC+
    Various Brushes
    Zaino AIO On All Painted Surfaces

    Paint Correction:
    3M Automotive Performance "Green" Tape
    M105/PFW via Makita Rotary
    M205/Orange via Meguiars G110 DA
    Zaino AIO On All Door Shuts
    50/50 of 91% IPA/Distilled Water
    Meguiars Supreme Shine MF Towels

    LSP:
    TWO coats of Blackfire Wet Diamond Paint Sealant
    TWO coats of Dodo Juice Hard Wax for White Vehicles(Owner Supplied)

    On to the pictures already!

    The owner had the car prepped for me before I arrived, so all I had to do was clay, polish, seal the vehicle.


    The first thing I did was clay the car and then I taped off any edges and all the clearbra peices(a majority of the car).


    I proceeded to wipe down the engine compartment(all that was needed on a car with less than 1k miles) and apply Zaino-AIO to any painted surfaces.


    The defects were hard to capture using a camera, let alone my own eyes. So these were the best shots I could manage to capture.
    Before.






    After.

    The smaller areas were also corrected using a 4" PFW pad.




    The taillights were also polished with M205/Orange pad.


    This produced a very deep and rich reflection in the lights.
