Some cars aren’t just cars—they’re artifacts.
The 1977 Porsche 924 is one of the most misunderstood classics in Porsche history, and that’s exactly why enthusiasts love it. It was Porsche’s front‑engine, transaxle experiment: lightweight, balanced, usable, and unmistakably late‑70s.
And when you see one wearing Martini-inspired livery/heritage styling with a bold red interior, it hits even harder—because it’s pure period-correct motorsport energy.
This particular 924 had been garage kept, but like a lot of stored classics, it picked up an unwelcome issue over time: mold from the garage environment.
We came in for our Platinum Package with a clear goal: revitalize the car, safely remove mold, reset the interior, refine key paint areas, and protect everything so it stays right.
What We Did (Platinum Package)
Gentle interior mold removal + steam disinfection + protection
This 924 has a striking red interior (carpets and seats), so the approach had to be careful and controlled.
We removed mold from all interior surfaces using a gentle process, then used steam carefully to disinfect and neutralize what was left behind. After the interior was reset, we protected the surfaces to help keep the cabin looking clean and preserved.
Engine bay steam clean + protectant
We steam-cleaned the engine bay to remove grime and residue, then applied protectant to leave a clean, conditioned finish.
Exterior wash + clay bar treatment
We started with a proper bath to remove surface contamination, then used a clay bar treatment to remove embedded contaminants and leave the paint smooth and ready for refinement.
Selective paint correction (targeted refinement)
On classics like this, correction has to be intentional. We gave selective attention to specific areas to improve clarity and bring back a cleaner finish—without chasing perfection in a way that doesn’t make sense for the paint’s story and condition.
Paint protection
After prep and refinement, we protected the paint to help preserve the finish and keep it easier to maintain.
White wheels deep clean
White wheels show everything. We deep cleaned the wheels to remove buildup and restore a crisp, clean look that matches the car’s iconic styling.
The Outcome
The car looked revitalized—cleaner, healthier, and far more “alive,” while staying true to what a preserved classic should feel like.
If you’ve got a garage-kept vehicle that’s picked up odor, mold, or storage grime, the right detail isn’t just cosmetic—it’s preservation.

FAQ
Is mold removal safe for classic interiors?
Yes—if it’s handled gently and correctly. The goal is to remove contamination and disinfect without damaging aged materials.
Do you fully correct the paint on classic cars?
It depends. We can do selective correction (targeted refinement) or deeper correction based on paint condition and your goals.
