2011 Porsche Cayenne S

My friend sold his 2007 Porsche GT3 RS (http://www.detailingbliss.com/forum/...he-gt3-rs.html) and picked up this 2011 Cayenne S. Fully loaded with the Turbo wheels, the thing is quite a looker. Apart from the paint. The vehicle was traded in completely dirty so my friend had no idea was was lurking underneath the pollen, dust and other filth. Let the pictures speak for themselves.

Bit of a chilly morning, had to use warm water!






Not sure where all that mud came from on the inside of the wheels.


You can see the condition of the paint through the dirt.


After I washed it, under the lights it went.






Most panels would require two hits of PO203S on a green pad. This was after my first pass.


And this after the second pass.


Making my way around the car.




Chicken pox?


That scratch? From the local "hand wash" place. Great. Did not come out.


After rinsing her off and applying a nice layer of Menzerna Power Lock. Still love it on black more than anything else.






Outside for less than 5 minutes and you can already see the pollen on it.










You can still see some minor swirls in the full sun.
















And put up for the night until collection. It's amazing how much more room I have in my garage with this in there versus my 3/4 ton Dodge.

Looks amazing!! I have a black 135i and as soon as this weather improves I'm gonna put these Adams polishes to the test. I hope my results are similar to the ones on this beauty! Awesome job

If you want some inspiration, here is the thread when I detailed my wife's 135i. Hers is Alpine White, but I would have used the same products had it been a black one.

Well, he did not trade the GT3 RS in for the Cayenne S. He sold the GT3 RS for what he paid for it, then bought this Cayenne S afterwards.
