Wink Clarity Detailing--BMW M5

Heres another one of my own cars. Still trying to "perfect" my technique...
Its an 2007 Interlargos Blue E60 M5. It makes my Z4M Roadster look like a little toy... 500HP 5.0 V10...So here we go!

This is my ///M5 on the move:driver::
YouTube - M5 at full throttle

Process:
Pre rinse
Foamed with Gilmour foam gun with Megs APC
2BM with Meguairs Gold Class Car Wash
Dried with Waffle Weave towel
Mothers Aggressive Clay bar used with Groits Garage Speed Shine
Wheels done with Meguiars WB Diluted to 1:8
Meguairs APC diluted to 1:8 (also used on door shuts and other panel gaps)
EZ Detail Brush
Taped Up with Painters Tape
Makita 9227
Compunded with M105 on an Orange LC ccs pad
Polished with SIP on a White LC ccs pad
And Finished with the same white pad with Menzerna FF
Windows done with Griots Garage window cleaner
Exhaust polished with Wire Woll and M105 and then refined with NXT POLYSH
Rims sealed with Poorboys wheel sealent
Engine bay cleaned with Megs APC and dressed with Megs All season Dressings (sorry no pics)
Meguairs NXT wax put on with Pc 7424 on a Black Pad and buffed off
Meguairs tire shine used to dress tires and Megs ASD used on the wheel arches

Afters only:
