Hello Autopians:wavey



Been awhile since I last posted here....well just about any detailing forum actually, as some work related injuries have kept me to pretty much just washing cars. Even that at times was a real pain:sosad



Plus moving........moving bites!:angry



Oh wel yesterday I did a few details and figured I would post up the results before everybody forgot about me:(



Here is a 500SL that I etailed using the Cyclo, Menzerna IP and white pads followed by Hi-Temps Fine Finish



I also used a new QD called "Optimum" and this stuff ROCKS:up

Figured you were just busy like the rest of us :D



But hey welcome back!! :wavey



Car looks good, got any more pics you care to share??
 
This is an 7 year old BMW 740. Been caring for it since day one and I really like this body style over the new 7 series.



This was polished with the Cyclo and Light Cut and then hand applied Fine Finish.



This was then spritzed with my new QD, Optimum

Anthony, WB man ! :xyxthumbs



Since you last stopped by I have a Cyclo now too! In fact, I have a SL I'm supposed to do too! I anxiously wait to read about all of your Cyclo work.



Glad to have you back! See you around the forums!



Hey! Tell us more about this Optimum stuff
 
Did this black BMW from hell also......really bad shape:down



My new partner removed dents while I detailed the interior.



The exterior literally had little to no gloss it was so scratched. It is also a repaint, at least 80% of the panels.



We buffed with with a wool pad and Menzerna PG. Went over that with an ornage pad and Menzerna PG again.



Next came a polishing pad with Menzerna IP followed by a LC blue finishing pad and Menzerna FP.



FMJ tops it off.



No BEFORE pics as it was cloudy and overcast all day. In fact it rained a few hours after these pictures were taken:D

Thanks,

AO-



That 740il is beautiful. Unfortunately, my mother gave up on her '01 740iL in Khalahari Beige. It was beautiful (not to mention a blast to drive) but 8 shop visits in 12 months was too much.



Nice work in keeping the rockers black and I know you love working on those wheels!
 
Lookin good as usual :xyxthumbs, now do a seach for my username and reply to all those previous post you've missed ;)
 
I thought you'd dropped off the face of the earth! Sorry to hear you got hurt.



Excellent job on all three. I really like the 740 but I hate those wheels. Total PITA to clean! The 540 looks great too.



Welcome back! :wavey
