This car i take care of regularly by washing it weekly but it has never been waxed.
The customer is not really a guy who is into keeping his car immaculate, to make it worse he drives it alot.
First i purchased some touch up paint from the dealer to cover the countless paint chips.
Since it's a DD, i decided to clay it, do a single polish to revive the paint a little and top it with 845.
The interior i cleaned up the leather and did a mild clean up of the mats, those will probably be dirty again by next week.
With a cold front moving in yeaterday it was an overcast day so pics were very limited and i had to finish the job inside his garage.
I did go back today to take some better after pics, but they're not the close up detailed kind because it wasn't a paint correction job

It turned out great! Is that BMW's black that looks dark blue up close?
 
Very nicely done but you've got to slap that owner silly and tell him if he wants to own a nice car like that, he's got to keep it maintained

Man, that is one of all-time dream cars! Nice job, too bad the owner cannot really take of it.

The color is actually called Carbon Black but it only looks black in the shade.
He told me he would have bought an M6 but decided against it because he drives so much and was thinking about the M's gas mileage. At least in his development are some Dolphin players and other neighbors with really nice cars that i hope to get some customers out of :)
