I am about to detail my 740i for BimmerFest West and was thinking about using FMJ. I have not seen too many posts and or pics regariding FMJ! :nixweiss



If anyone out there has any feedback on FMJ, (Anthony, have you tried FMJ yet?), please let me know! :)



If I dont have any feedback on FMJ, I will probably try Wolfgang sealant.



Thanks in advance.

I think only Anthony and a few others have used FMJ. Several have used Wolfgang and other than some having minor issues with the pre-cleaner, reviews have been excellent.



I have a feeling the Wolfgang twins topped with #16 would look outstanding on your car.

Scott,



Thanks for the quick reply! :D



Do you think that WG + #16 will be a better than NXT + #16? The ultimate look is more important than how long the combo lasts! :xyxthumbs



Let me know.

I agree with Scott the Wolfgang is a winner and would look great on your black 740. I just used the wolf on a Laguna Seca Blue M3 and the car looks very wet.

detailbarn,



I now have a 2001 740i Sport in Titanium Silver Metallic. Here is a pic.

Let me know if you think I still should go for WG?

yup even more with the silver , my personal truck is a 2001 Lunar Mist Tacoma and Wolfgang made the metallic pop out more than anything I`ve used and it looks wet even on the silver.

I may be interested in trying this after i get a few more coats of WG on my car. Do you think i should? #16 should be better then s100?

Mantic6t9,



I would give #16 a shot! :xyxthumbs



To me #16 seems to leave a very liquid, very wet finish to the paint. Here is a pic of NXT x 2 topped with #16.

I just got the New Menzerna Kit and its the best products i have now for my Silver 01 Accord. And i have pretty much everything discussed on this webpage excent zaino. Im goin to put a second coat of FMJ on tomorrow but just one coat makes the car glow, and it makes a super deep slippery finish .Its supreme on silver and since you have a silver beemer the new menzera triplets are for you.

I`ve tried FMJspecifically to compare it with WG. Something about the texture was kind of wierd. It wasn`t as slick of a finish as WG and the water beading wasn`t as good. Both cars look nice, but side by side the WG has a much deeper, wetter shine that`s very impressive.

speedracer,



I have decided to go with the WG twins and they should arrive today! I hope to get in a polish with my PC, followed by the Wolfgang Pre-Wax Polish Enhancer, and at least a couple layers of the Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant by Sunday. I will try to post pics as I finish. Depending on how it looks I may or may not top with #16.



Thanks for the feedback guys!

Hello, just to let you know, the FMJ sheets water, to prevent water spots. It says so on CMA website. Thats why WG beads better. I did my dads black mustang with WG, and it really is a close call, but i think FMJ is better. I will have to try FMJ on the black car and the WG on the silver car to tell how they look on opposite colors (light and dark).

Maybe it`s just me but i found that WG sheets water pretty well.
