I have been taking care of it since the car was brand new. However over the winter the car got swirled up. Last I worked on it was about 6 months ago. The owner takes very good care of the paint usually.
It was time to make it look a little better.
Didn't have a garage so I was pressed for time. Started at around 10:00 am and finished in the dark right before 9:00pm.
Very few afters

- which is too bad because the paint looked amazing.
The vertical panels I assumed were going to be easier to correct - boy was I wrong!
Process:
Engine was pre treated with an apc & pressure washed
Exterior
Dawn wash
clay
PG rotary 1800rpm (hood roof trunk)
SIP rotary 1500rpm (hood roof trunk)
ZAIO udm (hood roof trunk)
============================
Rest of the car
EC purple wool pad 1800rpm
Ultrafina blue ccs pad 1800rpm
ZAIO UDM
LSP
CG's Extreme Top Coat
Tire
AA Spray
PS: In the before picture the car had Z5 on it and still felt slick from it's last detail. :xyxthumbs
Before
Unfortunately the swirls didn't show up too well in the before pictures and look light, but trust me they were not. Also don't mind the smears in the afters - ZAIO got rid of them. (I try saving time where ever I can)
After - in total darkness:laugh::laugh::laugh:
