I detailed this car awhile back but it needed to be corrected again.

I really wish I finished earlier so I could have taken better outdoor pictures. After 106 and ZPC the paint looked out of this world.

Anyways.

qew
106ff - blue/green pads to correct 1200-1500rpm
HTEC - green pad to correct some stubborn areas 1500rpm
ZPC - black propel pad pc 6
Z5 - black lc pad pc 4
CS to remove Z5 - pc black lcvc pad pc 5

before

After 106ff and a blue propel finishing pad - soft paint!!!

Inside shot of the same thing

I think this is after ZPC

Finished Product

CLEAN would be an understatement.

Nice looking car! I really like the wheels.

Looks like you can swim in that paint!!

Nice work!

I just did two 2004 M3's yesterday, one black(coupe) and one carbon(conv). Very soft paint as all BMW's.

Dumb question...what machine did you use to polish. PC or rotary? I use a Cyclo and would like to get into a PC(which I know is a breeze) and then jump slowly to a rotary, again. It's been years since I touched a "buffing wheel".

can you explain how u used CS to remove the haze from Z5?

Awesome car if I built a M that is how she would look

Wow thats a beauty.
I need to try out my ZPC too.

Mr.S14 · 05-19-07, 08:58

Very clean...good job

btw: can you find out the specs on that tint job....what brand and percentage?

Disgusting. The befores look benign, but I can only imagine. I hate what he did with the rear but the rest of the car is very clean. Nice work.

I like those eyelids, not so crazy about the front bumper though. That reflection is amazing! In picture #5 is the gas door open?

Dripping!! Great work. Enlighten me on the CS to remove the Z5 thing?
