Porsche GT3, Porsche Turbo (997 series), Audi RS 4

Starting point

The colour white had its heyday around 20 years ago and is once again being shown gladly by car manufacturers. Asked for the reason, customers mention, besides the emphasis on the car’s shape, the wish to stand out from the crowd and make a striking statement. White stands for concentration on the essentials, a new aesthetic purism that has no bearing on engine, driving feel or interior. In the Individual or Exclusive programmes there is also the option of standing out from others not only in the colour of the paint. The report shows three such cars: a Porsche GT3, a Porsche Turbo of the 997 series and an Audi RS 4, all in white.

Work

For white new cars the report recommends the LZ 730 brilliance sealant straight after taking delivery of the car. According to the report at the time, the sealant reduces the adhesion of dirt, thus making paint care easier, and with its deep gloss preserves the brilliance of the colour for a long time, so that sensitive colours are protected. Whether all three cars shown received this sealant is not clear from the source; nor does it contain further details on preparation and procedure.

Result

With the sealant, the deep gloss and colour brilliance of the white paintwork are preserved for a long time. For ongoing care after sealing, the workshop advises on matched care products of the kind used there every day. The company has been devoted to exclusive vehicle detailing since 1997.
