    We worked on this beautiful Enzo last year, and posted up some photos but didn't have everything together yet. We hired a professional photographer to come in and take the last few shots (you'll be able to tell which ones are not my shots!), so now that I have them I wanted to put it all together for the F-chat readers.

    This was a very big project, and probably the most time we've spent polishing out a car. Ferrari black can be very challenging at times since it is so soft, and when you throw in the amount of curves there are on the Enzo, it just takes that much more time and patience.

    As you can see from the first few photos, we had to disassemble some items so that we had better access for polishing. While it adds more time, it makes a huge difference in the finished product. You can also see in some of the closeup shots under the lights that the paint was quite needy.

    By painstakingly removing all of the swirls and scratches, you can bring out a level of shine, gloss, depth, and color that you've never seen before. Once finished, these vehicles look like jewels.

    I also wanted to thank my good friend DJ Mayo of NoVa for coming over to help us with this project. DJ has been helping me with collections for years, and he is somebody that I recommend and trust implicitly!

    If you have any questions on this process, or would like more information on how we can make YOUR Ferrari (or other) look this good, please get in touch!

    I'm offended that no one alerted me to this thread. Todd, you do absolutely incredible work, and I love your threads. But a black Enzo... sigh. Be still, my heart.

    Great work Todd, I'm sure Albert will be over-the-moon.

    When I found this Enzo for him, I remember telling him there is only one guy who I'd trust with taking care of its cosmetics. I'm glad he took me up on my suggestion!
