1989 Ferrari Mondial Interior and Exterior Detail

FL Detail062dsc_3554

Car number three for eM Detailing’s Florida excursion was this 1989 Ferrari Mondial Coupe. The owner was most interested in getting the interior leather a thorough clean and condition. Since we weren’t sure on the condition of the exterior paint ( and there were some very thin spots) we settled on a single stage correction and Opti Coat Pro for exterior shine and protection.

The light colored leather seats were in great shape, just in need of a thorough cleaning.

The light color started coming back quite nicely!

Gentle water based cleaners and soft agitation helped loosen up the dirt, to be wiped away with a clean micro fiber towel.FL Detail065dsc_3565

There were many leather details that needed cleaning

But it all came back wonderfully

Years of engrained grime were not safe from the tooth brush in the shift knob either!

Following cleanup, all leather was treated with Leather Masters’ Conditioner, Plastic and vinyl were treated with 303 Aerospace Protectant for long lasting, non-glossy, UV protection.

By the time we reached the exterior. It had gotten dark and I was starting to come down with some sort of cold :/

A single stage correction was adequate for most of the car, however, this lower panel had a lot more scratching than the rest of the car. Following some careful paint thickness measurements, I was able to do a very gently compounding step here to remove some of the scratches.

The car was coated in Opti Coat Pro. By the time the car was done, I was exhausted and running a fever (and it was dark). Unfortunately no finished pictures here 🙁 Sorry.
