Ferrari 458 Italia New Car Prep

This Ferrai 458 Italia was brought in at the Ferrari Dealership in San Antonio for some detail work.  The color Rosso Dino is not common for the 458 Italia but can be an added at additional cost.  The car was purchased a little over a year ago and still had the interior plastic & didn’t even have the registration stickers on it.   Here is what we started with,  It seems like this car had been parked for some time with all the dirt, tree debris & swirl marks.

We started with a wash & decon step with detailing clay.  Once we got the wheels wheel wells & paint cleaned up the polishing started with our New Car Prep Package.  For some reason this Orange was a little harder to polish out than the normal colors.

The exhaust got a little TLC w some steel wool and metal polish.  After 4 hours of polishing we parked it out front to get ready to pull in to the show room.
