Looking for LC500 to buy.

A small but hopefully useful update.  I had the suitable weather on Saturday to properly clean and inspect my car.  I had noticed quite a lot of hologram's on the paintwork, especially the bonnet.  Not unusual on any car these days and to be honest most so called detailers are quite bad at not only removing them but in some cases causing them.

I wanted to correct the paint to perfection and then proper seal it with a ceramic for the autumn and winter months.  So early on Saturday morning I started to prep the car for some correction.  It took me from 8:30am to around 8pm with only a 15 minute pause for lunch and two coffee breaks to help keep the energy levels up.

In the end I am very pleased with the quality of the paint on the LC, it is actually quite soft when compared to Mercedes paint but it was also great for getting a lot of gloss out of.  The end results were better than I even thought for the 1st proper correction, I honestly thought it would take another go in the spring to correct the swirls and holograms, but honestly it is near perfection already.  I have added pictures to show the depth of gloss achieved and I am happy to explain the full procedure if anyone is interested.

Nice work. Mine was the same when I got it. I’m convinced most were caused by the dealer. Strictly do not clean orders when it goes in for services.

Lexus paint is very soft. Wash and dry with care.
