At Kartal Auto, we take pride in providing expert detailing and polishing services for luxury vehicles, ensuring they retain their exceptional finish and performance. Recently, we had the privilege of working on a Lamborghini Jarama, one of the finest pieces of automotive craftsmanship. During the polishing process, we identified several issues that needed attention to restore the vehicle’s pristine condition. Below, we outline the challenges we encountered and the precise solutions we implemented to achieve a flawless, mirror-like finish.
Identified Issues & Solutions:
- Swirl Marks and Micro-Scratches:
- Problem: The Lamborghini Jarama’s paint had accumulated light swirl marks and micro-scratches from improper washing techniques and wear over time. These imperfections detracted from the car’s smooth, glossy finish and reduced its visual appeal.
- Solution: We applied a multi-stage polishing process using advanced, dual-action polishers. Our team carefully removed the swirl marks and micro-scratches, restoring the paint’s smoothness and depth. After the initial polishing, we applied a fine polish to enhance the gloss and bring out the Lamborghini’s signature shine.
- Oxidation and Dullness:
- Problem: The vehicle’s exterior had signs of oxidation and dullness, especially in areas exposed to the sun. This made the paint look faded and less vibrant, diminishing the overall appearance.
- Solution: Our team performed paint correction using specialized compounds designed to remove oxidation. This process restored the paint’s original vibrancy and gloss. We then applied a high-gloss finishing polish to ensure a deep, mirror-like shine, bringing the Lamborghini’s exterior back to life.
- Water Spots and Contaminants:
- Problem: The car had visible water spots and embedded contaminants from rain, hard water, and road grime. These contaminants left marks on the surface and could have affected the effectiveness of the final polish.
- Solution: We first performed a thorough clay bar treatment to remove any embedded contaminants from the surface. This process ensures that the paint is clean and smooth, creating an ideal surface for polishing. Afterward, we removed the water spots using a combination of chemical and mechanical methods to restore the flawless finish.
- Inconsistent Paint Surface:
- Problem: Upon inspection, we found that the paint had some areas with uneven texture, likely caused by previous repairs or inconsistent application. These areas were more pronounced after the initial polishing attempt, which could result in a less-than-ideal outcome.
- Solution: We performed spot correction on the affected areas to ensure that the surface texture was uniform throughout. Using precision techniques and finer abrasive polishes, we smoothed out the inconsistencies and brought the entire paint surface to a consistent, high-quality finish.
- Stubborn Tar and Bug Residue:
- Problem: The Lamborghini’s front end showed stubborn tar and bug residue, which had accumulated after long drives. These spots were difficult to remove and required special care to avoid damaging the paint.
- Solution: We used a tar and bug remover formulated to safely break down and lift the residues without harming the paintwork. After cleaning, we applied a gentle polish to blend the area seamlessly with the rest of the vehicle, ensuring that no signs of residue remained.
