    Red face 1999 Dakar Yellow BMW M3 (Dual-stage paint correction w/ CQUK coating)

    So I am working on my neighbors 99 BMW M3 this week. I will be doing a paint correction on it followed by a coating of CQUK on the wheels and paint. I will also be doing a premium interior on it. So this car is pretty much getting the works! I am excited to getting detailing for the year again, and what better project to kick off the season than a full detail! As get to test out the new polishers I got for this year. I picked up a Rupes 15 and also a Rupes mini.

    Interior Pics:




    So I did a bit of cleaning on the inside and here is a 50/50 shot of just a quick scrub with Megs APC+ on the steering wheel


    I will be finishing the interior on Friday probably and will post more pics of the interior than.

    Sunday night applied CQUK to the new wheels the owner purchased for the car that we will be installing once I finish detailing it. Here are a few pics of them after I applied the coating.




    Today I tested out my new Rupes 15 and mini. I absolutely love these, correction was quick and effortless. I am doing a dual-stage correction on this and started out with M105/D300 on Megs MF cutting pads on the 15. The correction with just this combo was outstanding, however I followed that up with M205. The depth and gloss on the paint are outstanding now, and should look even better when I apply the CQUK coating.

    Some good 50/50 shots



    And some nice reflection shots




    A picture I took tonight that I thought looked cool



    Look for more updates in a few days

    Very cool, looking forward to the update after coating. Out of all the CarPro products I have tested, from the regular QCuartz to the "pro-only Finest", Cquartz UK has been my favorite.

    I forgot to update this. Here are a few picture of the car after applying the CQuartz UK coating. I am going to be getting more pictures on friday of the car with the new wheels on it, as he had to have them balanced before installing them on the car.








    I will post a few more on Friday evening with the new wheels
