1928 Rolls Royce Concours Detail
Parked next to the 1941 Cadillac also done by us.
Leather treated several times with Connolly Hide Food.
Healthy paint measurements taken all over vehicle.
Dingy sterling silver needed a lot of polishing.
Heavy swirling
Lots of tight spots all over car needed a lot of attention. Our mini buffer with 4" pads were used all over the place, and a couple of rolls of tape were used to protect edges.
This beautiful Rolls Royce Phantom came to us in need of a show car preperation for the Kirkland Concours d' elegance. There were a lot of difficult nooks and crannies on this car, not to mention the stainless steel hood that needed to be polished, and also all the sterling silver, like the radiator, emblems, bumpers, and much much more. The leather was extremely dried and cracking tremendously, so I used Connolly Hide Food Conditioner to soften the leather, performed a 3 step machine polish, and hand waxed with Vintage wax. This preperation took two weeks to finish, but the results were astonishing.

1941 Cadillac Concourse Detail
Trizact 3000 Damp Sanding
Gloss Reading before
This beautiful car came to us for a concourse preperation for the Kirkland Concours' which is our local version of Pebble Beach. Some of the most expensive, and extravagant cars in the world are here on display. The detail was fairly straight forward. I sanded the paint with Trizact 3000, polished out with SIP and Orange CCS Pad, work in some Micro Polish 85rd with a white pad, and jeweled with Ultrafina and red CCS pad. Topped with 3 coats of Vintage wax. This thing is glowing now and ready for the show. Unfortunately Seattle's weather forecast is predicting rain. AGAIN... :( Thanks for looking.
