Hi all,

I hope you are all enjoying the christmas break.

EDP worked on this particular SLR a couple of months ago.

A pretty rare colour too.

Here are some "before paint correction" images showing the lovely scratches on the £280k car.

About 28 hours work time later the paint started to look as it should on such a super car.

Thank you for the kind comments. He has just recently finished working on a £1million Ferrari Enzo where he had spent around 45 hours on just the exterior!
