First the Sienna:D



I just washed it with NXT tonight and applied PB's S&G (what a great QD!)



The paint is still in fantastic shape, very shiny, smooth and slippery. No one wants to see another picture of the van so NO PICTURES



Brand new Crossfire - love the color and the car! Paint was perfect (99.9999999999%)



(same garage, same low quality pictures) Sorry.

Bobbie, the owner of the M3 was taking the car to a show this sunday, so I prepped it on Saturday. (in the garage due to rain):down

p21s/pc/3/LC gray pad

Zymol carbon wax by hand

no touch extreme tire shine



Zymol gave the paint an very elegant look. You do get what you pay for this wax for sure. I'll start layering this as I wash the car.



GOOD STUFF!!!!



So today after detailing the Croosfire, I just vacumed, qewd it and sprayed the tires



I tried taking similar pictures, but the sun didn't cooperate today. Sorry.

Very nice work :xyxthumbs



I haven't noticed you using Zymol wax before, is this something new in your arsenal?

Thanks Eliot.



As I mentioned in the first post - Bobbie bought both P21s and Zymol - this is what I'll use on the M3 from now on.

Great pics! The M3 looks really good and even with poor lighting you can see how glossy the Crossfire is.

Thanks Scott!



Once I get a chance to work on the M3 outside there are some more dealer installed scretches that need to be removed. I missed some again last saturday. :(
 
The M3 turned out stunning...actually saw your work over on the m3forum before I saw it here.



I used Zymol Carbon on a customer's car awhile back and liked the results but found it a bit finiky to deal with...too little cure time and it just smeared all over the place...too much and it was a pain to remove. most pastes are like this but that one in particular seemed to be very unforgiving depending on how long it was left on the paint. Did you find this as well? Could have been a problem with this container being old maybe?

EXCELLENT work!





That M3 is just stunning :cool:





What kind of phone is that? The pictures look pretty remarkable for a phone. I've seen actual cameras with a lot less quality photos.
 
Thanks guys for the nice words. I still have a few scretches to remove, but this time I'll work on the car outside. :D







GSRstilez - I believe it is a sony. I am sure Bobbie will chime in at some point.





AudiOn19s - the direction says not to let it get dry, so I QDd a panel at a time first, then applied a thin coat and removed it immediately. I thought it was pretty easy to work with it. Try my method and see what happens.
 
Top notch work! That M3 looks stunning and the Zymol look nice on it.



Everywhere I go I keep getting reminded of M3's. I really want one BAD!! But I just havent found a good way yet to get the payment below $700/mo to lease one. IT is definitely a must have kind of car!
