This one belongs to a really neat couple. They ended up having to wait a few weeks for their detail, due to my dance card being quite full lately, and were very excited about getting the car detailed.

Process:

Wash w/Dawn

Dry w/lead blower

Clay w/DP Clay

Polish w/SIP on orange CCS

Topped w/DPS, DWG, DPS

Interior got vacuumed and wiped down w/Woolite/water mix

Leather was steam cleaned and conditioned w/DG Leather conditioner

Glass was polished w/KAIO and topped w/DPS

Tires got OB

Headlights were wet sanded and polished

Headlights got 2000 then 3000 then polished w/SIP

Leather was steam cleaned and then conditioned

I just used the brush attachment on the vacuum after I was done cleaning the mats.

Yes, a very nice "save" on the 528. That car was in danger of going off the deep end, but you brought it back. It looks like the infamous Jet Black, not Black Sapphire Metallic. I am rather fussy about my own car, and I ran away from Jet Black when I ordered my 1-series a year ago.

I was really impressed with the restoration of the leather. Heck, I was impressed with all of it. Thanks for sharing!

Very nice work! I hear those lead blowers are great for metallic paint! :p On a more serious note, great job on the interior. I couldn`t believe the difference of the before and after leather photos! I will have to try DG leather conditioner now haha
