[imported_artikxscout]

how did EC work on the paint? Relatively well?

[kaval]

Sooo wet! I love the finish on the tires too!

[imported_smprince1]

I betting that car looks better now than when picked up new years and years ago. Excellent :up:up:up

Thomas, when are you going to buy a BMW. You are probably responsible for 20% of the BMW population having car that look good. Again great job, I wished that I could have been there.

The birds seemed to have fallen in love with the paint (d*mn birds!) there. The hood on the last shot looks deep! Nice work Thomas!

Extremely well.



I`ve read too many times people saying on here that EC is a medium cut polish like sip, but to me sip can`t match it`s cut ever. There is a day and night difference between the 2.



In the pictures the swirls don`t seem too deep but they were. It is hard to capture on film with this color. The trunk was the worst. I had to go back to it 3 to 4 times in some places as the sun came back here and there. It was mostly cloudy today.



I love EC with the purple wool.



Thank you guys very much.



howareb - the M5 developed a transmission problem and had to go to tthe dealer. I have to do his black 540 wagon that he bought today and the M5. Plus the interior of the 740. Just let me know what day. I also have a gold 5 series to do. I`ll call him to set a day this week.

Nice work (as usual) !!! I love the older body 7-Series.

Great work Thomas! Also, great to hear that EC and the LC purple worked great for you. I`m definitely happy that I have that combo as well and I`m looking forward to trying it out!

[imported_rydawg]

Superb job there Thomas!

[mazdaguy]

Awesome Job! Love the old 7 series

[Thomas Dekany]

Thank you!



EC is an excellent polish. Just remember to use it sparingly. You don`t need much of it.

[Rickrack]

Looks awesome Thomas!



What a difference!



I love that color
