Detailed & Delivered!
Started by removing the wheels and detailing the inner barrels, brakes, and suspension:
Hand-tightened and then torqued in a star pattern with our Snap-On Torque Wrench:
Detailed the engine bay:
Covering up the engine so it doesn't get wet from the hand wash. I could have washed the engine after the hand wash, but I prefer to do it this way so the mild engine cleaners and protectants involved can't possibly contaminate the surrounding paintwork and are instead washed off. The engine bay will have to be wiped down and inspected two more times before it is seen by the customer due to washes.
At this point, the Ferrari has been clay barred and I am now taping off any trim, emblems, weatherstripping, etc... that might come in contact with the polisher before the two stage light polish:
After the polishing is finished, the tape is removed and the car is washed again with another new wash mitt. This ensures the dusting that comes off the pad during polishing is not left on the vehicle or in various jambs, cracks, door seals, and so on.

Finished with Zymol Vintage Estate Glaze:
Going back home safely in our custom 40' enclosed trailer. The F430 is winched inside (No one sits in the car, or crawls out of it) and straps are used over the tires to secure it to the floor. The winch cable was removed for the photo and you can see the shiny tow hook on the passenger side. The cable is hooked back up for transport but with a lot of slack as transporting it taught could seriously damage the vehicle.
