Vehicle: 1995 Porsche 911 993 Black

Condition: Paint readings on all surfaces and overall impression was a definite need for paint enhancement. Paint was somewhat soft, hence the ability for a good finishing polish and proper buffing technique to eliminate a huge amount of swirls. Pictures were a bit lacking due to time and sun constraints.
