Detailed: 2006 BMW M5

[skitelluride531]

I have had the pleasure of taking care of this fine vehicle every Sunday morning since Late July `06. Every 2 months or so, I also do a full detail on it. Here are the results from the last full detail from a few days ago. I also did an engine clean up this time as well! Let me know what you think!



Process on the outside:



Wash with Meguiars Super Soap

Wheels Cleaned with Wheel Brightner



Applied 1 Coat of Meguiars #7 Showcar Glaze with PC Speed 4 with Edge 2000 White Finish Pad



Applied 1 Coat of Klasse with PC SPeed 3 with a second Edge 2000 White Finish Pad



Tires Dressed with Hyper Dressing



Engine Cleaned with Meguiars APC+

Dressed with Hyper Dressing



Interior I used Meguiars Interior Quick Detailer and applied some leather dressing where appropriate.

Looks awsome

[paul34]

Very nice!



Although the M5 isn`t my cup of tea, you can`t help buy respect how much of a power and technological behemoth it is.

[Charisma]

Beautiful car! Nice detailing work as well.

[sftempest66]

Very nice work, the car looks fantastic :eek: :bow

Great work on that M5, real nice photography too.

How did you remove #7, did you have to keep going back to the same panels over and over repeatedly so that it would come off completely?

Thanks

Yes! #7 is a PITA to remove...I used a Monster Fluffy Towel from Detailers Paradise to make it easier.

Looks great! :drool:



I bet those wheels sucked to clean...

[BigJimZ28]

any bonding issues with the SG over #7?



looks great

[Hey, Moe!]

Great work on a great car! Two thumbs up! I never tire of looking at nice Bimmers.



Oh, there`s that dreaded IDrive knob on the console. Guess I`ll get an M3 if my finances would reverse ; )



Yeah, as much as I liked the wheels, I wouldn`t wanna clean them.

[skitelluride531]

The wheels certainly are a pain to clean, that`s for sure! The wheel brightener from Meguiars helps though.







No problem with SG over the #7 whatsoever!
