Nebster Detailed: Seth's Udub 328xi e90

Nebster · 03-15-2009, 11:30 PM

Well This car pushed me to the limits. Upon first inspection i thought this car would be a simple job. After a panel or two i found out that a simple job turned into a beast of a job. Either way I got the pleasure of trying out some new swissvax blau on this car and i love it. Ok here is a rundown of everything

wash:
CG CWG 1oz/1gal
CG blue clay
CG SQD
CG Green all purpose cleaner
CG window cleaner
about 5000x q tips
P21S TAW
P21S wheel cleaner

swissvax penu
swissvax leather cleaner
swissvax Leather Cleaner
swissvax Leather Milk
swissvax Metal Polish
swissvax Wood Polish

Paint Correction:
Flex 3401
Blackfire compound
Blackfire finishing polish
Blackfire gloss enhancing polish
LC yellow pad
LC white pad
LC black pad

CG jetseal 109

swissvax Blau

Ok to the pics:

I don't have a lot of pictures but there they are. There were some deep scratches and swirls that i couldn't get out but overall i'm pleased with the outcome

Looks great. My car, also JB, took a beating this winter and looks as bad(if not worse) as the before pics. I'm hoping my detail in a couple weeks will yield good results too.

Ben did a GREAT job with what I gave him to work with... Kudos to you sir and thanks again for everything. I'll be coming back for another one in a few months (hopefully the car will be in a bit better condition by then

)

do you park outside a lot seth?

UdubBadger · 03-16-2009, 01:34 PM

no actually. Well yes and no. My old apt had outside parking, which I had to do for about 7 months of having the car. Now my new place has an underground lot but its full of dust and shit... there is usually a nice layer of soot on my car every morning after parking overnight. That and I drive on the hwy a lot so I get a lot of rock chips... especially since there been a decent amount of construction on I-90 which is what I take to come back and forth to Chicago.

I know, I'm a terrible parent.
