ScheerSpeed: Jet Black BMW 745Li Revived!
This car had been repainted about 6 months ago, and the bodyshop did a horrible job finishing the paint. in addition the car had sat outside without being moved for two months so it got a fair share of abuse and contamination.
The owner told me to give it all i had and make it as perfect as possible so thats just exactly what i did! the car took almost two weeks for me to finish. (i was working on it during finals so i couldnt work every day) Cleaning Exterior -Wash -1Z Anti Insekt -CG CWC -Meg's mitt -P21s TAW -Wheels -CG CWC -P21s Wheel Cleaner GEL -P21s TAW -EZ detail brush -Swissvax wheel brush -OXO tire scrubber -ARO -Wheel Wells -P21s TAW -Meg's APC+ -Meg's Super Degreaser -DD wheel well brush Clay -Special yellow poly clay -ONR lube Polishing -Exterior paint -Meg's 105 (3-4 passes in some areas) -Menzerna SIP -Menzerna PO85RD -Makita 9227C -3M Yellow Foam Backing Plate -1000w halogen lights -ISA 50/50 wipedown -DD über MF towels -Racatac LSP -Paint -Swissvax Cleaner Fluid -Swissvax Mystery -FK #425 Quick Detailer -CG 530XL MF towels -DD Fluffy green "no name" towels -Wheels -Swissvax Cleaner Fluid -Swissvax Autobahn -Optimum QD -Adam's Undercarriage(wheel wells) -Swissvax Pneu Glass -Adam's Glass Cleaner Interior -1Z Cockpit -Leather Master Trio -Adam's Glass Cleaner -Swissvax mystery (wood trim) onto the before shots ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() here you can see how whoever polished this car before burned the paint right off this edge! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() the clay bar was extremely dirty after this car ![]() you can see how the previous detailer didnt tape up any edges and left polish/wax residue all over the place ![]() ![]() all taped up and ready to go ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() heres a before and after. on the left side is the result of two passes with SIP and an orange pad, in the middle is untouched, and the right is two passes of M105 ![]() M105 ![]() SIP ![]() ![]() more before shots ![]() before ![]() after ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 105 is really dusty.... ![]() my friend stopped by the house to take a look at what i was doing and he was amazed at the reflection ![]() after PO85RD final polish ![]() ![]() ![]() after re-washing the car. look at how the Swissvax Mystery makes water bead up ![]() tackling the dirty floormats ![]() Finished! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks for looking!
