Paint Correction
My 1997 Carrera S is in the spa this week for a paint correction and to address some stone chips. Last time I had this done was over 10 years ago and they really do put it cosmetically back into almost factory fresh condition, and it lasts really well. Ne...
A gem of a car👌
What do you mean by paint correction? Correction from what…weather, sun damage?
Thanks. Paint correction removes all the swirl marks and fine scratches that appear in the paint over time from car washes, leaves, road wear, weather or anything else.
The prior time they did this work ten plus years or so held up really well. But the car is garaged and covered except when being driven, and it’s usually not driven in the rain.
Thank you for explaining, this is very helpful to understand.
Does ceramic coating protect against all these effects?
Thanks. It’s actually Ocean Blue.
It’s a color Porsche made specially for the final two years of the air-cooled 911. They haven’t used it since but I suppose one could get it as a paint to sample.
That dark yet bright blue is a lovely color!
I had a Volvo Ocean Race for 16 years... I'm sure that paint is available, the colors look very similar ...
Beautiful 911 😍
Love that blue color too, well chosen! 👍🏻 I only go to the touch free wash or hand wash (never through the traditional car wash) and hope to avoid these paint correction trips in the future!
And of course the dreaded stone chips 😢 😭
I’ve found when I use clean micro fiber towels to dry it, the swirls are not as bad as running it through the traditional wash. But yes indeed, some level of paint imperfection I’m afraid, with any method , is unavoidable !!
I have found …
Having protective film on the front of the car a worthwhile investment.
👀 I’ve spent far too much time over the last decade ogling these cars.
If you know any watch guys looking to trade a 993 for a watch let me know ! I’m long on watches, short on 911s ! LOL
Great 911!
A 993 'S' with 2-wheel drive, and in a rare color too! My kind of car! Keep her forever!
