Today`s detail - The Ultimate Driving Mashine!

[Thomas Dekany]

This is CAB IN BLACK M3`s car. What an awesome vehicle. I got to drive it too! About 4 feet. :D

Bobbie is a very nice & energetic guy for sure. He was kind enough to get me lunch that was very good Bobbie - I finally sat down and eat all of it.

Detailed in a garage with minimal lighting but I managed somehow.

QEW (new wool mitt)
TOL Clay with mother`s QD
IP blue polishing pad (Rotary 1500 rpm on the hood only) tried to remove some scretches

SSR2,5 and a yellow light cutting pad
back to IP and blue pad (several passes)
SSR1 with white LC pad on 4

I have to redo the trunk under **normal** conditions. :)


Whole car received

FK1 #2180 - on 3 with blue propel pad
Natty`s by hand - yellow foam pad

If you look closely you can see part of the scretch & of course the buffer swirls. :(

Those M3`s are super nice. Got to drive an 01` like it was meant to be driven a little while back. I did a review with an M5 few months back in this forum as well.

Great results, and looks like all the hard work paid off!

I love that interior color :)

Looks awesome :bigups What did you use to clean those front wheels . They sure look nasty , musta used alot of towels on them . Also what did you use on the top ? Those pics outside are real nice . Almost looks like an ad in Forbes Magazine.

Great JOb! I cant believe those before pics of the wheels! Good JOB

Awwwwwsome :drool


I love those outside pics. Nice photography :D.

Hmmm that DP Wheel Gel must work very well! I assume you used #2180 the sealant? Looks sweet.

that bmw oem brakes for u. i cant get 6 miles without having a thin layer of dust on my wheels. im planning on getting the ceramic brake pads for the cooper. i think they`re called "greenstuff" or soemthing.

if i had enough money to buy a n m3 i would. i definately prefer an m3 over an slk. m3`s and the porch carrera are my 2 favs. very classy and sporty

[JaredPointer]

Nice job TD. :bigups

[milky]

I thought the wheels were gunmetal :D Awesome detail! Love those M3`s. :)
