This M5 was dropped off for a 2 day correction and needed every bit of that time and more. In fact it needed 3 days, so I pulled an allnighter to give it that extra time. Much sleep was caught up on after the owner took it home smiling :)



Process:

Exterior
-Foamed with Dawn
-Rinsed and Dawn wash
-Megs APC 4:1 on wheels/tires
-Daytona EZ detail brush
-Swissvax Wheel brush
-Clayed with Z18 and Megs LT as lube
-Tires with Zaino Z16
-Exhaust polished with Mothers Aluminum polish with #0000 steel wool



Correction

-Megs 105 on orange LC 5.5
-Megs 205 on white LC 5.5
-Menzerna 106FA on black LC 5.5


LSP

-Zaino ZAIO
-Zaino Z5pro
-Zaino Z6

Because I was pulling and allnighter I had no time for correction pics as I normally would. But I did at least get a couple to show the correction, though I wish I had taken more.

Top corrected with M105 and orange pad, so only compounded so far. Refining polishing yet to be done. Bottom part uncorrected.

Thanks for lookin!
 
Nice job! Looks so much better...the before shots were slightly painful to look at
 
Thank you for saving that car :) A car like a BMW M5 should be treated with much more care and respect than that one had been before you got your hands on it. Good job, it looks absolutely gorgeous now.
