God how sad is that? Why he couldn't just pay $15 and run the thing through a carwash once a month, would have been better than letting it go like that...



Great work!
 
$100,000+ for that car, and he can't pay someone to take care of it on a regular basis? Why did he even get the 600? He should of got a 430 and saved the 600 for someone that actually appreciate's it. (sorry I had to ***** about that)



Exellent job BTW:xyxthumbs

Those German cars spew out brake dust like crazy. My parents BMW looks like that after one week of city driving.

I guess there is a negative point to having the best brakes ever engineered in the world.
 
I use this solvent based product about 75% of the time. AM also makes a water based dressing that I use called Super Dress-It that is almost equal in shine and duration, but I stress "almost".



Magic Dressing gives a nice clean looking shine after being wiped down and lasts longer than any other dressing I've tried to date.



Good Luck.
 
Nice job on that. Did you take the rims off to do the calipers, or just stick something back there to wipe it off?
 
where do you get this stuff?



heres an old volvo i worked on last week

i used trim shine on them..i didnt really know what else to use
 
AM's Spoke diluted 50% with water on the wheels. DO NOT LET SPOKE sit on the wheel, spray and clean with water immediately. I wear chemical resistant gloves and goggles while working with Spoke. I have (3) different brushes I use on wheels along with a couple of old bug sponges and a old wash mitt.



I know Spoke is HF acid based and most people do not like using it. I believe that I take every pre-caution to avoid any contact with my skin and I detail out doors which help the fumes disapate quickly. I have been yet to find a non-acid wheel cleaner that comes close to the cleaning ability of this product, and while I would love to use a non-acid I just cannot find one that matches up to AM's Spoke.



On the tires and wheel wells... Old reliable Simple Green and dress the wells with AM's Dress-It. The tires are dressed with AM's Magic dressing.
