Detailer's Domain: Porsche C4S Cab/Swissvax

This was a referral from a great customer of ours. Love that fact that he referred another great Porsche guy to us. Thanks Bill for letting us work on such a great car!

Bill took great care of the car, no need for any major overhaul, just some very light scratches in the usual spots and some extra care inside and out. We took care of them with Swissvax Cleaner Fluid and of finished with Swissvax Crystal Rock.

The interior was cleaned up, conditioned and prepped for some drop top weather!

Swissvax Cleaner Fluid
Swissvax Crystal Rock

Wheels and tires:
Uber Tire/Wheel/Wheel Well Kit

Interior and Glass
Leather Master Rapid S
Leather Master Protection Cream

Lusso Glass Polish

Tools:

Tons of "Uber" Microfiber Towels
