Project Highlight: 2004 Porsche Boxster Restored with Paint Correction & Ceramic Coating

A Classic in Need of Attention

There’s something timeless about the Porsche Boxster. Even 20 years after rolling off the production line, this convertible remains one of the most fun-to-drive sports cars around.

But while the performance of this 2004 Porsche Boxster was still strong, the paint told a different story. Its once-beautiful red finish had grown dull and hazy, marked by swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation. The owner loved the car but admitted it just didn’t have that “Porsche shine” anymore.

That’s where our paint correction and ceramic coating process came in.

The Paint Correction Process

At Premier Auto Styling, we specialize in restoring tired paint to a like-new condition. For this Porsche, our team performed a multi-stage paint correction to carefully remove years of surface defects.

The process involved:

• Inspection & Prep: Identifying swirl marks, oxidation, and deeper scratches across the panels.
• Cutting Stage: Using a machine polisher and cutting compound to level out imperfections in the clear coat.
• Refinement Stage: A lighter polish to enhance clarity, depth, and gloss, revealing the car’s true color.

The transformation was immediate. As we worked panel by panel, the dull red turned into a rich, mirror-like finish that reflected light with the depth it deserved.

Protecting the Transformation

Restoring the paint is only half the story — protecting it is just as important. To lock in the new finish, we applied Autobahn Ceramic Coating across all painted surfaces.

This premium coating provides:

• Long-lasting gloss and depth
• Resistance to scratches, chemicals, and UV damage
• Hydrophobic protection, making the car easier to wash
• Years of defense against fading and oxidation

By combining paint correction with ceramic coating, we ensured the Boxster’s stunning new look would last for years, not just months.

The Result

The final reveal was nothing short of spectacular. The 2004 Porsche Boxster’s red paint looked showroom-ready — vibrant, glossy, and full of depth. The owner couldn’t believe the difference, describing it as “better than the day I bought it.”

This project highlights exactly what paint correction and ceramic coating can do: extend the life of a car you already love, restore its beauty, and protect it for the future.
