Anbuzero Detailed: 2009 Infiniti G37xS

Hey peoples its been a while since i had a real customer. This is a brand new 2009 G3xS with only 1,000 miles. It was oringinally booked for paint correction on the back bumper only (to remove hazing and swirls induced by a hack ), but Mike the owner, (Great Guy) agreed to have it washed and waxed as well. Excuse the lack of pictures I was on a bit of a schedule and Mike had to get to a meeting so I tried to get as much done in short time.

so the story with this car is its a brand new 09 G37 that got hit while being park. Owner took it to get buffed out, the hack that tried to fix the scratches threw compound on it and hit it with a rotary. made a mess and the haziness was bothering the customers eyes. He happened to find me on the here and scheduled an appointment to fix what the hack had ruined. On the phone we discussed the worry of it having the infamous self healing clearcoat. So i pulled out all my polishes and pads and got ready for the worst. well anyways what you see below is me fighting with the either rock hard or magic clear coat. enjoy


Wash:
Gilmour Foam Gun
CG Maxi Suds
Megs #62
Sheepskin Wash Mitt
Two Bucket Method
WW MF Drying Towel

Glass:
CG Glass Cleaner

Wheels:
CG Grime Reaper
CG Diablo
Wheel Brush
Tire Brush
EZ Detail Brush
303 Aerospace Protectant

Paint Correction:
PC 7424 XP
4" LC Yellow Pad
4" LC Orange Pad
4" LC White Pad
Menzerna Power Gloss
Menzerna SIP
Menzerna PO85rd
IPA

LSP:
CG EZ Cream Glaze on rear bumper
PoorBoy's World Natty's Red on enitre car

Tools:
Costco MF towels
DD Uber MF Towels
CG MF towels
Sony Cyber Shot 7.2mp
Nitrile Gloves


So for the next 5 pictures below we see swirling, hazing and holograms caused by improper compounding with a rotary and wool pad.





Picture below is after hitting the area with 85rd on a white pad. Didnt do anything to the swirls, fixed the hazing and holograms just a little. So I tried again...

Tried out my favorite combo, LC Orange pad with Menz SIP, better results but swirls not completely gone...



Second hit on the area and it looked alot better. except for the little hazing SIP left, so after hitting the problem spot with SIP twice (tried power gloss on yellow pad and the deeper scratches) then hitting the rest of the bumper with SIP/orange pad, i removed the hazing with PO85rd on a white pad. and these are the results...

AFTERS
-The hazy spots you see on the hood are not paint defects they are spots on the ceiling that have been patched-

SORRY for the blurry pics






Hey Mike! Showing him where the defects were and how it clear the reflection looks now



Those are not holograms in the picture below. They are the reflection of the reflection of the sun on the cars paint, shining off onto the fence. (I think that made sense)

As always enjoy. All comments and questions are welcome

I am the owner of the G37xs detailed in these photos. As you guys can imagine, having a car with imperfections (especially a black, new one) due to some ones negligence is quite annoying. I am quite **** and the worst part of having the hazing/minor scratches is just knowing it was there. I tried to have it fixed once and got screwed so i was a bit hesitant to entrust my car to someone else. First off let me say that the photos here do not give justice to the quality of work performed.

Anbuzero is the most meticulous "car guy" i have ever met. He is a master of his trade and the love of this work really shines through. he literally went through each inch of the car wth me. My vehicle was treated with the utmost care, and i have nothing but wonderful kind words to express. He took the time to explain every step of the procedure and made me feel very comfortable. Without question, i plan to maintain a relationship due to the caliber of his work. Without hesitation, i strongly recommend you pay him a visit if you live in the NY/NJ/Delaware areas. It was well worth my time and the drive.
