Hey guys, here`s a few pics of my car from my recent detail (Easter Monday).

I want to thank everyone here for all the tips and advice provided since I joined here and a big thankyou to JGV :bow for sending me a sample of a 3M finishing glaze which I have finally got round to using.



Process

Easter Sunday, conventional wash with NXT wash and then clay rinse and dry. Apply second layer of SG to summer wheels and re-fit........go to sisters for tea cos I`m too lazy to cook today :D



Easter Monday....

QEW wash

Dry

1z PP with polishing pad on PC (first time use :scared turned to :shocked :xyxthumbs ) Removed some horrible marks left by neighbours kids football :angry

AIO by hand

JGV`s generous sample of 3M finishing glaze (PC and finishing pad)

P21s wax by hand



Tuesday

another layer of P21s wax by hand.



The paint now looks really wet and reflective instead of just shiney. Some of the pics I took don`t really do it justice, but here you are.......

Sweet detail on your Bimmer! :bow :bow



The paint looks very wet and liquidy. Keep up the great work!
