Park Avenue Detailing: BMW 135i Convertible

Had the pleasure of doing a second detail on this awesome car! Owner is putting it away in storage so he wanted a good polish and clean before he did so.

Forgive the first two picture's I didn't have my tripod with me for them.

Process:

M105/Orange on Hood
SIP/Orange
106FF/White
Blackfire Wet Diamond LSP



sad attempt at 50/50 in the dark with no tripod...sorry..

























and for you big eye lovers...

Nice job, Paul. I think this new BMW carries that luv/hate stigma. Personally, I've seen a few on the road and like them.

Have y'all had much snow

Nice after shots, I don't know about the convertible.

Very nice Paul! For a car being that new, hard to believe you needed 105 just proof that dealers mess up paint in a bad way. Nice recovery!

Re: Park Avenue Detailing: BMW 135i Convertible

looks great! also, in between the last time you polished it until now, did it need much polishing?

Re: Park Avenue Detailing: BMW 135i Convertible

I needed M105 on the hood because raccoon's decided to dance on the hood.

It had some RID's, but all the swirls came out easily.
