Cadillac CTS - Vehicle sale/trade in prep

This 2011 Cadillac CTS 4 came in for a vehicle sale/dealer trade in prep detail. Whenever selling or trading a vehicle it is important to clean every inch of the vehicle inside and out. An extensive detail that includes a paint correction can add thousands of dollars to a vehicle’s resale value. After 18 hours of premium automotive detailing I present to you Critical Details latest detailing video.

Menzerna Final Finish was used on a white Lake Country 5.5 pad to polish paint. Spot compounding was performed on more severe defects using Menzerna Intensive Polish on an orange Lake Country 4 inch pad. My camera had a hard time picking up the defects but if you look closely below the LED light you can see the swirl marks on the before and after on the door.

Minor Paint Correction

Single stage machine polish removes light swirls, scratches, oxidation and water spots from the paintwork restoring gloss. Machine polishing is performed in addition to a decontamination detail and removes 40% - 60% of paint defects.
