Big Cat Got Scratched/ Marred

This wasn't the average daily car that i used to groom, but since the car was sent to us, i shall do some study while reconstructing the damages on the paint work. This was one of the main heart ache issue why the car was here.

The front right fender panel had a deep gash, the damage looked bad as the scratch mark had indented the metal. Theses were the other defects assessed over the car.
Marring over the entire car was easily spotted.

This panel had more defects than the marring, etched markings were introduced as well.

This car would need correction work on the paint work. How's the quality/ integrity of the paint work to the naked eye? The paint work appeared to be very glossy and thick, high end looks... matching the product of course.

Consistent paint thickness readings at most of the panels at above 120+ microns.

Wondering if this paint work is workable?? I hope it is as the paint's condition is quite adverse.

The paint coating readings at the fenders was very much lower than the rest of the panels. I had spent 6 hours to reconstruct the damages and put the dazzling shine back on this beautiful car.

The scratch is gone, what's left behind was an elongated dent mark. My thoughts gathered... Tough paint work!

The etched marks and marring were things of the past once again.


A guy who gave me a thumbs up for the hard work done on this car. The feeling was great and motivates me to go further.

Marring gone from the curvy muscular lines, the car is looking good from all angles.


For a moment, i thought it was an Aston from this angle shot, boy i must be suffering from the fatigue...

The clarity of the car's paint work was noted to be top notched.





Looking at the horizon, the correction cum detailing session was over in this reconstruction job and i'm looking forward to more challenges. I feel that nothing is firm in reconstructing paint work, you never know what's going to happen next. Thank you for viewing the post.
