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!!!

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".

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?

outstanding work Thomas! Interesting way of using Z5 and Cs like that but hey it looks like it is working perfect.



I love doing zpc after 106. The gloss is just out of the world for just prep work. Sometimes I will use zaio instead of zpc.



CS the next day is when it looks unreal. Z8 on top of that it gets even better
