Porsche owners are particular about their cars — as they should be. Here's what proper Porsche detailing looks like and why most car washes are doing it wrong.
German clear coats — across Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, and Audi — are significantly softer than Japanese or American clear coats. This means they scratch more easily from improper wash technique, swirl more visibly on dark colors, and require more delicate compounds and pads during correction. A single drive through an automatic car wash can add hundreds of micro-scratches to your 911's paint.
Dark colors (Black, Night Blue Metallic, Jet Black Metallic) show every defect and require multi-stage paint correction for a flawless finish. Light colors (Carrara White, Chalk, GT Silver) hide swirls better but show water spots and contamination more readily. Racing Yellow and Guards Red require UV-specific protection to prevent fading.
A professional ceramic coating is the single best investment for a Porsche in NYC. Road salt, UV exposure, and city driving take a massive toll on unprotected German paint. We apply Gtechniq Crystal Serum Ultra — a manufacturer-backed coating that bonds to Porsche clear coat for 9+ years of protection.
