1986 BMW 325 ES revived. Pic heavy!

Had a repeat client drop off his original 1986 BMW 325 ES for a make over. With only 88k miles on the clock the original interior is immaculate. The original single stage paint needed some help to say it lightly. Before dropping off I had him visit my paintless dent guy to go over it and get it straightened out. The plan here was to get the paint corrected and coated.


Prep/Decon


Ammo Frothe, Nanoskin fine grade towel


Correction- Rupes 21 mm Mark ll, B/S Uro wool, Fast correcting cream. Adams swirl killer mini, B/S uro wool.


Finish polishing- Rupes 21 mm Mark ll, B/S yellow pad, Hyper polish. Adams swirl killer mini, B/S yellow


LSP- IGL Poly 1 year coating

Wow...great turn around and love the reflections. You did a great job!!!! On a side note, what type of lift do you have and are you happy with it?

Great write up, pics, and work Justin!

Nice work. Made that 33 yr old paint look new.... and it’s black! Amazing!

Beautiful and I also appreciate your write up with the before and after pictures framed equally. Makes it really easy to discern the improvement.

Love the e30`s. Great write-up and result!! What did you use on all black plastic/rubber trim? That stuff is killer on the older European cars.
