May 7, 23rd Annual Deutsche Marque Concours

It was a very nice laid back show. There were Mercedes' 4 Audis Porsches and of course BMWs.

I was promoting my business - gave out almost all my cards I had with me.

This car I take care of as I have time, since it sits inside the owners shop anyways. It has FK1 #1000, DP Max Wax on it. It's been a few months since I worked on it though.

Got 2nd place.



I looked pretty hard for awhile to find paint in good shape - These had them somewhat.



Both of these:

this was next to one of our cars. Barely any miles on it, but had it's share of swirls. Due to the color, you had to really look.

Finally the M3 that I detail every Tuesday.

After a full detail on a RX300 the day before the show I drove over to the owners house and worked on it until 1:30 am At that point the wheels were not touched yet. That was our downfall. This car placed 3rd. Inside of the wheels were "dark")

We did have the best paint though!

Wow, the flag graphic on that BMW is just terrible. Nice work though!
