Some pics after 5 hours of detailing

tennis_pr0 · 05-16-2013, 07:55 PM

So I woke up to a nice cloudy day, had about five hours before I had to work, so I figured I would take the time and detail the 335.

Washed, clay bar, wash again then waxed with Meguiar's XNT paste. Did the seats with Zaino z9 and z10, glass with rain off, wheels with mothers wheel detailer, and applied a wheel wax they now sell at the bmw dealership to the wheels to protect from brake dust. Five hours later, I am very happy with the result!

Looks good. You should start looking into some professional grade waxes, especially the Zymol line. Im going to pick up a pot of Zymol Glasur. Its got some awesome reviews. Bouncers makes some very high quality waxes without the high quality price. May I suggest you clean your steering wheel too. It would really set off the interior.

Nice.. I gotta upgrade my products.

tennis_pr0 · 05-16-2013, 08:41 PM

I don't know much about waxes but I did hear good things about the Zymol.

Hey tennis pr0, looks good man! How do you like the smell of that z10? I purchased some Chemical Guy's leather conditioner, but I'm liking the smell of it that much.

Steering wheel needs more attention and did you forgot to clean pedals?

I know it is unsafe to put dressing or oily stuff on pedals but they can be cleaned with just damp MF Towel or with Optimum No Rinse on damp MF towel.
